3.7.3
Access to the remote door interlock is through a plug and socket
located on the back panel of the laser. The appropriate pin-outs
and wiring are shown in the figure below. The laser system is
delivered with this plug shorted internally. Cut the internal wire and
join to your external circuit when this is required. The circuit used
should be low impedance and use twisted-pair wire connections.
Consult an electrical professional if unsure about this.
3.7.4
Do not connect other power supplies to this interlock. Connecting
devices to the unit other than instructed may cause severe damage
to the unit and will result in voiding of the device warranty.
3.8 Proper Laser Routine Maintenance, Handling, and
Storage
3.8.1
Only Solta personnel or personnel approved and trained by Solta
shall install or adjust the Laser Systems.
3.8.2
After each patient treatment, the portion of the handpiece tip that
came in contact with the patients’ skin should be wiped down with a
70% alcohol prep pad and visually inspected for damage, debris,
dirt, contamination, crazing or cracks. Allow the alcohol to dry
before initiating another treatment in order to mitigate the risk of fire,
or serious injury could result.
3.8.3
Make sure that the handpiece umbilical cable is not excessively
twisted from the unit. Do not tape the umbilical to any structure. Do
not attempt to coil the umbilical beyond the resistance point of the
armoring. Do not use if the internal cables and wires are visible
through holes or gaps in the umbilical armoring as this may cause
inadvertent exposure of laser energy to persons in the room.
3.8.4
Do not use acetone on the tip as this may cause damage preventing
the tip from functioning properly.
3.8.5
To clean the internal handpiece sealing window, carefully use an
alcohol prep pad or gauze moistened with 70% alcohol. Do not hold
the prep pad or gauze with bare hands while performing this
operation. Allow the alcohol to dry before initiating treatment in
order to mitigate the risk of fire from which serious injury could
result.
3.8.6
Be careful not to contaminate the internal handpiece optics with any
substance used for cleaning and disinfecting the tip or with the
topical anesthesia gel.
3.8.7
Do not allow the inside of the tip window to become contaminated
while cleaning the handpiece sealing window.
3.8.8
Do not set liquids of any kind on top of the laser.
3.8.9
The accessories should be stored in an area accessible only to
qualified and trained personnel.
