SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1) Do not turn on the lamp without attaching liquid light guide and liquid light guide adapter to the microscope. The
UV light is included in the lights from this lamp. Looking directly into the light may damage your eyes. Also, it could
cause fire.
2) Before replacing the lamp, be sure to set the power switch to
\
(OFF), unplug the power cord from the outlet, and
wait until the lamp replacement cover and the lamp have cooled down completely (more than 40 minutes as a
guide) to avoid electric shock or burn.
3) Install the light source unit on a sturdy, level table or bench.
4) Install this equipment on a flat surface which does not block the ventilation opening on the bottom panel. Do not
place it on a soft surface, e.g. paper or cloth, etc. This could cause fire.
5) Make sure to leave sufficient space for ventilation around this equipment. Never allow metallic objects to enter the
ventilation opening. This could cause fire or electric shock.
6) When installing this equipment, secure sufficient space larger than 10 cm around this equipment to release the
heat.
7) In order to prevent the liquid light guide from being broken, the bend radius of the liquid light guide must be larger
than 40 mm.
8) Always use the power cord provided by Olympus. If no power cord is provided, please select a proper power cord
by referring to the section “PROPER SELECTION OF THE POWER CORD” at the end of this instruction manual. If the
proper power cord is not used, product safety performance cannot be warranted. Place the power cord far enough
from the heat source so that it does not touch it, e.g. near the lamp replacement cover, etc.
9) Do not turn ON the light while the lamp replacement cover is open. Doing so could result in electric shock, burn,
light source unit failure or deterioration of the light guide.
10) Be sure to connect the power cord to a grounded outlet. Otherwise Olympus cannot warrant the intended electric
safety and performance of this equipment.
11) Never touch the power plug during a thunder-storm.
12) The light source must be located/installed in such a way that there is easy access to the AC inlet located on the
rear of the equipment as the AC inlet is designated as the main disconnecting device for this equipment.
