Warnings and Cautions

Familiarize all operating personnel with the general safety information in this summary.
Specific warnings and cautions are also found throughout this manual.

Warnings

A warning statement in this manual identifies a condition or practice, which if not
corrected or discontinued immediately, could lead to patient injury, illness, or death.

WARNING Users of this equipment should be thoroughly trained in the
appropriate medical procedures. Furthermore, they should take the time to read
and understand these instructions before performing any procedure. They should
also read and understand the instructions for any other equipment used in
conjunction with the Video Colposcope (i.e. electrosurgical generators). Failure to
do so may result in injury to the patient and/or damage to the Video Colposcope.

WARNING The Video Colposcope should not be operated in the presence of
flammable or explosive gases (i.e., anesthetics) or chemicals, or installed in areas
where these materials are commonly used.

WARNING Keep all liquids away from electrical equipment to avoid the
possibility of shock and instrument damage.

WARNING The lamp is extremely bright. DO NOT stare directly into illumination
lens when the lamp is lit.

WARNING Video Colposcope user should adhere to the operating conditions
found in this manual. Otherwise, instrument damage may occur and/or operator/
patient safety may be compromised.

WARNING All signal input and output (I/O) connectors are intended for
connection to only peripheral devices (example: monitor, video printer, VCR, PC,
DV Converter) that are in compliance with IEC 60601-1 (General Requirements for
Safety, Medical Electrical Equipment) or other IEC standards (for example IEC
60950, Information Technology Equipment - Safety) as appropriate to the nature
of the peripheral device. Connecting additional peripherals to the Video
Colposcope may increase the risk associated with chassis or patient leakage
currents. To maintain operator and patient safety, the User should consider the
system leakage current requirements of IEC 60601-1-1 (Medical Electrical
Equipment, Safety Requirements for Medical Electrical Systems). The user
should measure leakage currents accordingly to confirm that no electric shock
hazard exists. An isolation transformer that is in compliance with IEC 60601-1
used to power the additional peripherals may be used to control the system
leakage current to comply with the requirements of IEC 60601-1-1.

WARNING If peripheral devices (example: monitor, video printer, VCR ,other) do
not comply with IEC 60601-1-1 (Medical Electrical Equipment, Safety
Requirements for Medical Electrical systems), they must be kept out of the
patient area (6 feet minimum from patient).

WARNING DO NOT use a converter adapter that will convert the three-prong
AC plug to a two-prong line plug. The power supply in the Video Colposcope will
not be properly grounded and electric shock might result.

Directions for Use Introduction 3

WARNING For safety, the Video Colposcope should only be coupled to a
grounded 110-120 VAC hospital-grade outlet (220 - 240 volt, 50 cycle
international).

WARNING The lamp operates at a high temperature. DO NOT attempt to
remove the lamp before allowing it to cool. Allow at least five minutes for the
lamp to cool before replacing. Replace with Welch Allyn lamp #09800-U only.

Cautions

A caution statement in this manual identifies a condition or practice, which if not
corrected or discontinued immediately, could lead to equipment failure, equipment
damage, or data loss.

Caution Federal law restricts sale of this device to, or to the order of, a
physician or other appropriately licensed medical professional.

Caution Occasionally inspect the power cord for signs of cuts, abrasions or
dents.

Caution The Video Colposcope should never be stored or operated in areas
where it could get wet or could be exposed to any environmental conditions like
extreme temperature or humidity, direct sunlight, dust, etc.

Caution All service to the Video Colposcope must be performed by Welch Allyn
or by an authorized repair center.

Caution There are no user servicable parts (other than the lamp and fuses) in
this unit or in its accessories. Any attempt to disassemble and/or repair this unit
will result in voiding of the warranty.

Caution The Video Colposcope is cooled via a fan located in the back of the
unit. The fan draws air in from beneath the Video Colposcope and exhausts the
air out the back of the Video Colposcope. To avoid overheating, verify that the
unit is no less than 6" from a wall.

Caution Do not clean illumination lens with alcohol. Do not touch optical or
illumination lenses except as described in Maintenance section of this manual.

Caution The colposcope can be damaged if the unit is transported while
