Caution LED Radiation
The LED module of the incident light fluorescence lighting system
emits class 3B LED light. Direct exposure to the light and direct in

cidence of light on the skin must therefore be avoided at all costs.
When microscopes are used, the protective devices provided with
the microscope must always be used. Never - neither with nor
without optical instruments - look into the light beam, not even
to simply look at the sample. Failure to observe this warning may
result in eye damage!
