Important Start-up/Set-up Instructions

(Follow these instructions prior to using the system)

1.   Attach the AC Power Cord to the power inlet on the Sapphire Plus light source and plug into AC outlet.

2.    Install the Curing Light Guide by inserting the proximal end of the handpiece into the front panel receptacle 

until it stops. Make sure the device is firmly inserted all the way into the receptacle before turning the power 
ON. When the power switch (located on the back panel) is ON ( I ) position, display on the front panel will 
light up which means that system power is available. If the device is not installed correctly the system display 
will show “no HP” meaning No Hand Piece is detected otherwise it should display “Ch HP” meaning 
choose handpiece, which prompts the user to select mode (cure or bleach). 

 

 Once mode is selected, the Sapphire

®

 Plus is now ready for use. It is required that users read through the 

user’s manual and understand the warnings and precautions prior to use. Also become familiar with all system 
features before use.

3.    Check the light output with built-in light meter before every use. See the Light Meter (Radiometer) Section for 

details. Hold the handpiece as shown in the illustration. Record the values and maintain a log book with the 
dates and values. DO NOT USE THE SAPPHIRE FOR CURING OR SINGLE TOOTH WHITENING IF THE 
LIGHT OUTPUT IS GREATER THAN 3000 mW/cm2. Call DenMat and return the instrument for repair.

4.    Do not saturate the controller keypad area with disinfectant or other liquids. Wipe the keypad surface with a 

damp towel and dry completely.

5.    If the lamp access plate on the bottom of the system is removed to check the lamp, make sure that it is 

replaced correctly. The corners of the plate must fit into the outline of the cutout and not rest on top of the 
edges of the surrounding metal. When installed properly, all surfaces areas are even with each other. If the 
access plate is misaligned, the lamp will not activate. If the access plate is misaligned the system will show 
“Locd” meaning system is locked and the lamp will not activate.

WARNING: Leave at least 3 inches spacing in the back for adequate ventilation. Heat buildup shortens the lamp 
life and even contributes to the risk of lamp explosion (see associated warnings regarding the lamp in Warnings 
and Precautions section).
WARNING: Three-conductor grounding plug with international IEC connector provided. The hospital grade 
power cord is available for separate purchase for replacement or if a different plug configuration is needed for 
international customers. Do not replace the power cord without ensuring that the new power cord is Hospital 
grade, 18 AWG (min), 300 Vac, 10A, 105°C.

AC Plug

Input

The tip should be centered inside 

of the aperture. Positioning the tip 

differently may result in reduced 

light intensity values.
