Safety Information

Regulations
For U. S. A.
This instrument is a CLASS I EQUIPMENT and TYPE B APPLIED PARTS according to UL2601-1.
Do not make any changes or modifications to the equipment unless otherwise specified in the manual. If such changes or modifications should be made, you could be required to stop operation of the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Use of shielded cable is required to comply with class A limits in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules.
For Canada
This equipment complies with the Canadian ICES-003 class A specifications.
For EU Countries
This instrument is a Class I Equipment with measuring function. This is a Group 1, Class B equipment according to EN55011. The following mark shows compliance of the instrument with Directive 93/42/EEC.
Für Deutschland
Während des Betriebs liegt der Schalldruckpegel dieses Instruments bei 70 dB(A) oder weniger gemäß ISO 7779.

Safety Information

2. Photochemical radiance
The photochemical radiances of each light source irradiated from this instrument to the examinee’s eyes are indicated below. All the values in the following table were measured when the instrument was operating at maximum light intensity and maximum aperture.
]rs/2mc/Wm[aL]rs/2mc/Wm[bL
DERIyrtemotcarfeR)1(0000.00000.0
DERInoitanimullieyeretuO)2(8750.05220.0
DELnoitanimullitegratnoitaxifeyE)3(9900.05800.0
3. The above values are spectrally weighted radiance on the pupil of examinee’s eyes in
each wavelength. La gives the measure for eyes in which the crystalline lens has been removed (aphakes) or for eyes of infants. Lb gives this measure for eyes in which the crystalline lens is in place except for infants’. Spectrally weighted photochemical radiances La and Lb give a measure of the potential that exists for a beam of light to cause photochemical hazard to the retina. According to “the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienist (ACGIH) ­Threshold Limit Values for Chemical Substances and Physical Agents (1995 - 1996 edition)”, at photochemical radiances La and Lb of 80 [mW/cm2/sr], 3 minutes irradiation would cause the retinal exposure dose level to attain the recommended exposure limit.
(2)
Safety Information
If the value of radiance was 40 [mW/cm2/sr], 6 minutes would be needed to reach the rec­ommended limit. That is, the retinal exposure dose for a photochemical hazard is a product of the radiance and the exposure time. Since La and Lb of this instrument are extremely low, the risk of the photochemical hazard is also very low. While no acute optical radiation hazards have been identified for this instru­ment, it is recommended that the intensity of light directed into the examinee’s eye be limited to the minimum level which is necessary for diagnosis. Infants, aphakes and persons with diseased eyes will be at greater risk. The risk may also be increased if the person being examined has had any exposure with the same instrument or any other ophthalmic instru­ment using a visible light source during the previous 24h. This will apply particularly if the eye has been exposed to retinal photography.

1. Overview

The Canon Full Auto Ref R-F10 is for performing refractometry.
The main feature of the R-F10 is that by just displaying the examinee’s eye somewhere on the monitor and pressing the START switch, the instrument then automatically performs a precise alignment and measurement by a three-dimensional tracking system. Furthermore, the instrument will also measure the other eye and print out the results for both eyes. Thus, full measurement can be done very easily in a short time.
Also, because the observation range of examinee’s eye on the monitor has been widened and the depth of focus is deep, it is easier to check the position of the eye or whether eyelashes are covering the pupil.

2. Notes for Using the Instrument

Before Use
(1) Sudden heating of the room in cold areas will cause condensation to form on the
protective glass in the measurement window and on optical parts inside the instrument. In this case, wait until condensation disappears before performing measurement.
During Measurement
(1) Do not stain the protective glass in the measurement window with fingerprints, etc.
Otherwise, you may not be able to obtain a correct measurement.
(2) It is recommended that a hard copy of the printout be made if you wish to store it for a
long time, because printouts on thermal paper are apt to deteriorate.
After Use
(1) Turn OFF the power and place the dust cover over the instrument.
During Cleaning and Disinfection
(1) If the surface of the protective glass is wiped when dust or dirt is on it, it will be
scratched. Also, do not wipe the protective glass with ethyl alcohol or with cleaning paper containing silicone. Otherwise, the surface will be corroded, or will be stained. Section 7.3.1
(2) Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner for cleaning the cover of the instrument.
Also, never wipe the cover with ethanol or glutaraldehyde solution. Otherwise, the coating will be corroded. Section 7.3.3
During Installation
(1) Handle the instrument carefully, as preadjustment may be altered if the instrument
receives a strong jolt.
(2) Do not install the instrument where it will be exposed to direct sunlight.
Otherwise, it will be hard to see the monitor properly, or you may not be able to obtain a correct measurement.
(3) Blow off the dust in the connectors of the cables with a blower before connecting them.
Otherwise, connection failure may occur.
(4) When the instrument is going to be transported, it must be protected against vibration
and shocks. Contact Canon representative or distributor for advice on the procedure for packing it.
(5) Do not lay the instrument on its side when the power is turned ON. Otherwise, the
instrument will malfunction.
