IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: Before operating this device, please read this
operating manual thoroughly and carefully. When using this device with
a light source, re and/or severe injury may result to the patient, user, or
inanimate objects if the instructions in this manual are not followed.
All light sources can generate signicant amounts of heat (exceeding
41°C/106°F) at the scope tip, the scope light post, the light cable tip, and/or
near the light cable adapter. Higher levels of brightness from the light source
result in higher levels of heat. Always adjust the brightness level of the camera
and the monitor before adjusting the brightness level of the light source.
Adjust the brightness level of the light source to the minimum brightness
necessary to adequately illuminate the surgical site.
In addition, adjust the internal shutter of the camera higher in order to run
the light source at a lower intensity. Avoid touching the scope tip or the light
cable tip to the patient, and never place them on top of the patient, as doing
so may result in burns to the patient or user. In addition, never place the
scope tip, the scope light post, the light cable adapter, or the light cable tip on
the surgical drapes or other ammable material, as doing so may result in re.
Always place the light source in standby mode whenever the scope is
removed from the light cable or the device is unattended. The scope tip,
scope light post, light cable adapter, and light cable tip will take several
minutes to cool o after being placed in standby mode, and therefore may
still result in re or burns to the patient, user, or inanimate objects.
