Select the exposure time by pressing the TIME button.
- The selected exposure time is indicated by the
4 green LEDs.
- Each time the button is briefly pressed, the setting
advances to the next (higher) value. All 4 green
LEDs will be turned on for a setting of 20 sec.
Pressing the button again will turn off all of the
LEDs and enable the continuous mode.
- The display advances through the available
settings, if the button is kept depressed.
- While exposure is ongoing, the button for selection
of the exposure time is inactive.
Activating and Deactivating the Light
왘
Briefly press the START button; the light will turn on.
- The LEDs first indicate the set exposure time; all
4 LEDs light up for 20 sec. Every 5 sec, as the
time runs down, the LEDs will turn off one at a
time; at 15 sec remaining time, 3 LEDs will still be
on, at 10 sec remaining time 2 LEDs, etc.
- The LEDs do not come on at all in continuous
mode; an acoustical signal is emitted every
10 seconds.
왘
If desired, the light can be turned off by pressing the
START button again before the exposure time is over.
왘
Holding down the START button activates the tack-
cure mode: the unit emits a single short light pulse
which enables the defined curing of Protemp Crown
temporary restorations or a light-curing cement
excess (e.g., RelyX Unicem) to enable easy removal.
Positioning the Light Guide
왘
Rotate the light guide into the desired position for
polymerization.
왘
To make full use of the light intensity provided, place
the light guide as close to the filling as possible.
Avoid directly contacting the filling material!
- Keep the light guide clean at all times to obtain full
light intensity.
- Damaged light guides substantially reduce
the light intensity and must be replaced
immediately, sharp edges may cause serious
injury!
Removing and Inserting the Light Guide from/into
the Handpiece
왘
The light guide has a magnetic holder. Remove the
light guide from the handpiece by pulling it towards
the front.
왘
Attach the light guide to the handpiece until it is
firmly in place.
Measurement of Light Intensity
The light intensity of the Elipar DeepCure-S handpiece
can only be reliably determined using the Elipar Deep-
Cure-S charger! The circular testing area is located
below the scale for the light intensity on the charger.
Measurements carried out using the Elipar FreeLight,
FreeLight 2 or Elipar S10 charger (predecessors of Elipar
DeepCure-S), or another unit will produce incorrect
results due to the different light sources and the varying
arrangement of the components of the units.
Caution!
왘
Clean the testing area with a wet cloth.
왘
Without applying pressure, place the light guide on
the testing area such that the light-emitting opening
of the rod is level with the testing area.
왘
Activate the lamp by pressing the START button.
- The number of illuminated LEDs is indicative of
the measured light intensity: 5 LEDs = 100%,
4 LEDs = 90%, 3 LEDs = 80%, 2 LEDs = 70%,
1 LED = 60%.
왘
If the light intensity is below 100% (fewer than 5 LEDs
are ON), check the light guide for contamination or
defects.
왘
Either: clean the light guide of any contamination.
Or: clean the glare shield on the handpiece; see
“Care” for instructions about both procedures.
Or: replace the defective light guide with a new light
guide. Or: if the measures described above do not
result in any improvement, call 3M ESPE Customer
Service or the appropriate dealer.
Sleep Mode
Once the handpiece is placed in the charger, all internal
functions and LEDs are automatically turned off as the
handpiece switches to sleep mode. This reduces the
power consumption of the battery to a minimal level.
Outside the charger, the handpiece is also switched to
sleep mode, if it is not used for approx. 5 min.
왘
To terminate the sleep mode press the START button.
- The sleep mode termination signal (two short
audible signals) is emitted indicating that the
handpiece is ready for operation; the handpiece
displays the latest selected exposure mode and
time settings.
