20. This unit has been developed and tested in
accordance with the relevant EMC regulations and
standards. It is in conformity with legal require-
ments. Since various factors such as power supply,
wiring, and the ambient conditions at the place of
operation can affect the EMC properties of the
unit, the possibility that, under unfavorable condi-
tions, there will be EMC disruptions cannot be
completely excluded. If you should notice problems
in the operation of this or other units, move the unit
to a different location. The EMC manufacturer’s
declaration and the recommended separation
distances between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment and the Elipar S10
unit are listed in the appendix.
21. Prior to each use of the unit ensure that the emitted
light intensity is sufficient to safely guarantee poly-
merization. Use the light testing area integrated
into the charger for this purpose.

Product Description
Elipar S10 is a high- performance light source for poly-
merization of dental materials. It consists of a charger
and a wireless handpiece powered by a rechargeable
ment light guide. The light guide has to be seen as
an applied part. The use of other light guides may
result in a reduction or increase in the light intensity.
The product’s warranty does not cover any damage
resulting from the use of third-party light guides.
8. Condensation resulting from the unit being trans-
ferred from a cold to a warm environment may be a
potential risk. Hence, the unit should be turned on
only after it is completely equilibrated to ambient
temperature.
9. In order to avoid electric shock do not introduce
any objects into the unit with the exception of
replacement parts handled in accordance with the
Operating Instructions.
10. Use only genuine 3M ESPE parts when replacing
defective components as directed in these
Operating Instructions. The product’s warranty
does not cover any damage resulting from the
use of third-party replacement parts.
11. Should you have any reason to suspect the safety
of the unit to be compromised, the unit must be
taken out of operation and labeled accordingly
to prevent third parties from inadvertently
using a possibly defective unit. Safety may be
compro mised, e.g., if the unit malfunctions or is
noticeably damaged.
12. Keep solvents, flammable liquids, and sources of
intense heat away from the unit as they may
damage the plastic housing of the charger, the
seals, or the cover on the operating buttons.
13. Do not operate the unit in the proximity of flammable
mixtures.
14. Do not allow cleaning agents to enter the unit as
this may short-circuit the unit or cause potentially
dangerous malfunction.
15. Only service centers authorized by 3M Deutsch -
land GmbH may open the unit housing and repair
the device.
16. Elipar S10 must not be used in patients, or by
users, with heart pacemaker implants who have
been advised to be cautious with regard to their
exposure to small electrical devices.
17. Do not use Elipar S10 in patients with a history of
photobiological reactions (including individuals with
urticaria solaris or erythropoietic protoporphyria) or
who are currently on photosensitizing medication
(including 8-methoxypsoralen or dimethylchloro -
tetracycline).
18. Individuals with a history of cataract surgery may
be particularly sensitive to the exposure to light
and should be discouraged from Elipar S10 treat-
