EVIS EXERA II TJF TYPE Q180V OPERATION MANUAL
• Never emit high-frequency current before confirming that the
distal end of the high-frequency EndoTherapy accessory is in
the endoscope’s field of view. Also, confirm that the electrode
section and the mucous membrane in the vicinity of the target
area are at an appropriate distance from the distal end of the
endoscope. If the high-frequency current is emitted while the
distal end of the EndoTherapy accessory is not visible or too
close to the distal end of the endoscope, patient injury,
bleeding, and/or perforation as well as equipment damage
can result.
Prepare, inspect, and connect the electrosurgical unit and electrosurgical
accessories as described in their instruction manuals.
• The application of high-frequency current may interfere with
the endoscopic image. This does not indicate a malfunction.
• When the endoscope is used with the electrosurgical unit
ESG-100, it is not necessary to use the S-cord.
4.3 Withdrawal of the endoscope

section of the withdrawn endoscope, carefully check the
