INDICATION FOR USE
This fiber optic light guide system is designed
to deliver illumination from a high intensity
light source to a surgical headlight for surgical
site illumination, either standard or minimally
invasive. While the cable light source
endfittings are compatible with all light
sources, brightness and spot quality vary with
specific types of light sources. The xenon
UltraLite systems perform best with Luxtec
xenon light sources.
Any light source used with this cable should
have a maximum output of 0.25W IR at the
cable port to prevent cable and/or headlight
damage during use.
GENERAL WARNINGS
The user of this product should be thoroughly familiar
and trained in the use and care of this product.
The user should carefully study this manual before
making any attempt to use the product clinically.
Instructions should be followed specifically, with
special attention given to warnings and cleaning
instructions. This manual should also be available to
the surgical team during a procedure.
Follow the instructions in the operating manuals of
other manufacturer’s equipment when they are use in
conjunction with this product.
Before every procedure, carefully inspect the light
guide cable to ensure it has been properly maintained,
cleaned and sterilized (if compatible), and that it is
fully functional.
Any light source used with this cable should have a
maximum output of 0.25W IR at the cable port to
prevent cable and/or headlight damage during use.
Light sources use high intensity lamps, which
produce heat as well as brilliant light. The high
brightness produced by the light source and the light
output of the light guide cable can cause burns.
Care should be taken to follow the maintenance and
cleaning instructions. Excessive bending of the cable
should be avoided.
Use care not to point the light guide directly at the
eye while in operation. The brilliant light output can
cause severe eye discomfort.
FIRE HAZARD: DO NOT DRAPE OR
COVER THE LIGHT SOURCE OR THE
LIGHT GUIDE WHILE IT IS OPERATING.
DO NOT PLACE THE LIGHT GUIDE ON A
DRAPE WHILE IT IS OPERATING.
CAUTION: The metal portions of the cable at
the light source get hot during operation.
Allow components to cool outside of the light
source for at least 5 minutes before touching.
