WARNING
Do not sterilize the single-use fiber tips (EasyTips) again after usage.
Re-sterilization would severely affect the characteristics of the single-
use fiber tips (laser power output, form, accuracy,…).
4.4.2.2.2
Preparation for clinical application
1.
The EasyTips are delivered sterile. The metal handpiece sleeve can
be sterilized in the autoclave (high-pressure sterilizer), see chapter
"Cleaning, disinfection and sterilization [→ 63]".
2.
Select the required sterile EasyTip (320, 200 or Endo), see chapter
"List of preset indications".
WARNING
Use of the laser unit when the aiming beam is not functioning properly
may cause injuries to operating personnel, assistants or patients. If
you cannot see the red aiming beam after switching the laser on or
during treatment refer to chapter "Troubleshooting of simple defects
[→ 68]".
The optical fiber of the EasyTip may be damaged if it is seriously
bent. This may constitute a health hazard for patients, dentists and
dental assistants.
Remove the protection cap for treatment only. Never touch the
proximal end of the cap and protect it against damage and dirt.
Never use the laser without optical fiber. Verify correct fixation of the
fiber. Never bend, fold or jam the EasyTip, as this might cause it to
break. The EasyTip cannula must never be bent without the bending
tool.
Never pull on the optical fiber of the EasyTip.
Mounting of the EasyTip:
Do not use the EasyTip if its packaging tube is damaged or the best-
before date has expired. The best-before date is printed on the product
label of the packaging tube.
WARNING
If the EasyTip is used after the best-before date, the required sterile
conditions of the EasyTip can not be guaranteed. Moreover, some of
its physical properties, e.g. its load carrying capacity and transmission
behavior, may change, thus posing a hazard to the health of the
patient, the dentist and the dental assistant.
After removal of a tip, immediately lose the outer packaging.
1.
Remove the protective cap from the connection socket at the
handpiece
