Safety notices
The device is not authorised for operation in potentially explosive areas.
Before every application, the operator must make sure of the functional safety and proper
condition of the device.
Improper handling, maintenance and care may lead to premature deterioration
and malfunctions.
This can result in a reduced product life.
Therefore, please clean and care for the device regularly and properly and
have it sent for servicing regularly (observe service indicator or at the latest
within 24 months)!
Damaged functional parts can cause damage or injuries to persons or objects.
Furthermore this may result in (even greater) damage to your device.
Stop working immediately and disconnect the device from the mains when
functional parts are damaged and contact customer service.
Electromagnetic fields may affect the functionality of implanted systems
(e.g. pacemakers).
Please ask your patients before beginning the treatment whether they have
such a system.
Due to the complex interactions between electric devices and mobile
telephones, it is possible that mobile phones that are switched on may affect
the device, even though the device fulfils the applicable requirements relating
to electromagnetic fields.
Do not use your mobile phone while working and also inform your patients
that their mobile phones should be switched off during treatment.
Remove electronic devices, which could cause interaction
(e.g. hearing aids, etc.) while using the device.
Otherwise, the distance between the device and the upper part of the body
of the person to be treated must be at least 50 cm, in order to rule out any
malfunctions.
If you put the handpiece down there is risk of injury when reaching for the
handpiece. In the event of injuries from used instruments, this may lead to
infections.
Please take care when setting down the handpiece so that you do not injure
yourself.
Stop work immediately and disconnect the device from the power supply if you
should notice that fluid is leaking from the device.
