Safety
PLEASE NOTE!
Prior to installation and start-up of the unit, please read
these instructions carefully!
As with all technical devices, the proper function and
safe operation of this unit depend on the user’s
compliance with the standard safety procedures as
well as the specific safety recommendations presented
in these Operating Instructions.
1. Use of the device is restricted to professional person-
nel in accordance with the instructions below. The
manu facturer assumes no liability for any damage
arising from any other or improper use of this device.
2. Prior to start-up of the unit make sure that the operat-
ing voltage stated on the ident label is compatible
with the available mains voltage. Operation of the unit
at a different voltage may damage the unit.
3. Position the unit so that the power plug is accessible
at all times. The power plug is used to turn the charger
on and off. To disconnect the charger from the mains,
remove the power plug from the electrical outlet.
4. Use only the 3M charger which is provided with the
unit. The use of any other charger can result in
damage to the battery.
5. Elipar DeepCure-S may be operated only with the
supplied battery or original 3M Elipar DeepCure-S re-
placement batteries. The use of other batteries can
impair performance or cause damage to the device.
6. CAUTION. Do not stare at source. May be harmful
to the eyes. Restrict exposure to the area of the oral
cavity in which clinical treatment is intended. Protect
patient and user from reflection and intensive scattered
light by taking the appropriate precautions, e.g., glare
shields, goggles, or coverings.
7. CAUTION! As it is the case for all high-intensity light-
curing devices, the high light intensity is accompanied
by heat generation on the exposed surface. This heat
can result in irreversible damage if there is longer
exposure in the proximity of the pulp or soft tissue.
The exposure times given in the manufacturer’s
instructions must be observed exactly to avoid any
such damage.
Uninterrupted exposure times of the same tooth
surface in excess of 20 seconds and direct contact
with oral mucosa or skin must be strictly avoided.
Scientists working in this field are in agreement
that the irritation caused by heat generated during
light curing can be minimized by taking two simple
precautions:
• Polymerization with external cooling from an air
flow
