General information
Dear Customer,Thank you for purchasing your GALILEOS X-ray device.
The GALILEOS system consists of an X-ray device that
uses a cone beam with a rotational sequence to provide
two dimensional images and three dimensional volume
reconstructions of the head area, including both the ENT
and the dentomaxillofacial areas, for use in planning and
diagnostic support.
The system also includes a package of PC software
modules (GALAXIS, REKO Software) which extend the
capabilities of SIDEXIS to include the handling of 3D
data. This includes the 3D reconstruction, storage,
retrieval, viewing and processing of 3D image data.
The technical documentation supplied is also part of
the product. Keep these documents handy at all times.
To safeguard your warranty claims, please complete the
attached “Installation Report/Warranty Passport”
together with the service engineer immediately after the
installation of your unit.
Please familiarize yourself with the unit by reading
through these Operating Instructions before taking
any X-rays of patients. Always observe the valid radia-tion protection regulations and warnings.
These operating instructions presuppose that you are
familiar with the use of the SIDEXIS software.
SIRONA requires regular constancy tests to ensure the
image quality.
Your GALILEOS Team
Maintenance In the interest of the safety and health of patients, users
and other persons, inspection and preventive maintenance must be performed at scheduled intervals to
ensure the operational reliability and functional safety of
your product (IEC 60601-1 / DIN EN 60601-1 etc.).
The system owner must ensure that all inspections and
maintenance events take place.
If the system owner fails to fulfill the obligation to have
inspections and maintenance work performed or ignores
error messages, Sirona Dental Systems GmbH and its
authorized dealers cannot assume any liability for resulting damage.

Operating Instructions GALILEOS1.1 General safety information
Emergency stop (not included in the scope of supply)If any parts of the unit touch the patient during the rotary
movement, let go of the exposure release button
(X-Ray) immediately or stop the unit at once by actuating
the unit main switch or an Emergency Stop switch!
Disturbance of electronic devices worn on the
patient’s body
To prevent the malfunctioning of electronic devices and
data storage devices, e.g. radio-controlled watches,
telephone cards, etc., these objects must be removed
prior to X-raying.
Radiation protectionThe valid radiation protection regulations must be
observed.
The operator should move as far away from the X-ray
tube assembly as allowed by the coiled cable of the
exposure release button.
The statutory radiation protection equipment must be
used.
With the exception of the patient, no other persons
without radiation protection are allowed to stay in the
room. In exceptional cases, a third person may provide
assistance, but not the practice staff. During the whole
exposure, visual contact with the patient and the unit
must be maintained.
In case of malfunctions, cancel the exposure immediately by letting go of the exposure release button.
Hygiene informationThe bite block should be resterilized for each new
patient to prevent any possible transmission of infective
agents which might under certain circumstances cause
serious illnesses.
bеЦдблЬ
Also be sure to use hygienic protective sleeves.
Suitable hygienic measures must be taken to prevent
cross contamination among patients, users and other
persons.
Structural alterationsIf structural alterations are made in the immediate vicin-
ity of the unit, a technical check must be made by the
service engineer.
Dismantling and reassemblyWhen dismantling and reassembling the system, pro-
ceed according to the installation instructions for new
installation in order to guarantee its proper functioning
and stability.
The X-ray unit must be recalibrated whenever structural
alterations in the area surrounding the X-ray room or
new installations have been performed.

Laser light
localizer used
The system incorporates Class 1 laser products.
The light localizer is used for correct patient positioning.
It must not be used for any other purposes.
A minimum distance of 100mm (4“) between the eye and
the laser is required. Do not stare into the beam. Its safe
operation is described in chapter 6.3 "Positioning the
patient".
The light localizer may be switched on only if it is functioning properly and faultlessly. Repair work must be
carried out by authorized staff only.
Do not look directly into the beam.
Do not use any other lasers and avoid changing any settings or processes not described in these instructions, as
such actions could result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Sirona Dental Systems GmbH1 W arning and safety information
Connector pins or sockets bearing ESD warning labels
must not be touched or interconnected without ESD protective measures.
ESD protective measures include:
•Procedures for preventing electrostatic charge
build-up (e.g. air conditioning, air moistening, conductive floor coverings and non-synthetic clothing)
•Discharging the electrostatic charges of your own
body on the frame of the unit, the protective ground
wire or large metallic objects
•Connecting yourself to ground using a wrist band.
We therefore recommend that all persons working with
this system be instructed on the significance of this
warning label. Furthermore, they also should receive
training in the physics of electrostatic discharges which
can occur in the practice and the destruction of electronic components which may result if such components
are touched by electrostatically charged
The content of this training is explained in Chapter 1.3.

1.3 About the physics of electrostatic charges Operating Instructions GALILEOS
1.3About the physics of electrostatic charges
ESD stands for ElectroStatic Discharge. Electrostatic
discharge must be preceded by electrostatic charging.
Static electric charges generally build up whenever two
bodies are rubbed against each other, e.g. when walking
(shoe soles against the floor) or driving a vehicle (tires
against the street pavement). The amount of charge
depends on several factors:
Thus the charge is higher in an environment with low air
humidity than in one with high air humidity; it is also
higher with synthetic materials than with natural materials (clothing, floor coverings).
The following rule of thumb can be applied to assess the
transient voltages resulting from an electrostatic discharge.
An electrostatic discharge is:
•perceptible at 3,000 V or higher
•audible at 5,000 V or higher (cracking, crackling)
•visible at 10,000 V or higher (arc-over)
The transient currents resulting from these discharges
have a magnitude of 10 amperes. They are not hazardous for humans because they last for only several nanoseconds.
Voltage differentials exceeding 30,000 volts per centimeter may lead to a charge transfer (electrostatic discharge, lightning, arc-over).
Integrated circuits (logical circuits and microprocessors)
are used in order to implement a wide variety of functions in dental/X-ray/CEREC systems. The circuits must
be miniaturized to a very high degree in order to include
as many functions as possible on these chips. This leads
to structure thicknesses as low as a few ten thousandths
of a millimeter.
It is obvious that integrated circuits which are connected
to plugs leading outside of the unit via cables are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Even voltages which are
imperceptible to the user can cause breakdown of the
structures, thus leading to a discharge current which
melts the chip in the affected areas. Damage to individual integrated circuits may cause malfunction or failure
of the system.
To prevent this from happening, the ESD warning label
next to the plug warns of this hazard.
