Safety Instructions
PLEASE NOTE!
Prior to installation and start-up of the device, please
read these instructions carefully!
As with all technical devices, the proper function and
safe operation of this device depend on the user’s
compliance with the standard safety procedures as
well as the specific safety recommendations presented
in these Operating Instructions.
1. Use of the device is restricted to trained personnel in
accordance with the instructions below. The manu -
facturer assumes no liability for any damage arising
from any other or improper use of this advice.
2. The charger must be accessible at all times. Do not
use the charger for any use other than the charging
of the Elipar
™
handpiece. Disconnect the handpiece
from the mains by unplugging the charger from the
electrical outlet.
Treating patients using the handpiece while it is still
connected to the charger is prohibited for safety
reasons. Light-curing is possible only if the charger
has been disconnected.
3. Use only the charger (AC adapter plug) which
is provided with the device. The use of any other
charger can result in damage to the battery.
4. The light must not be aimed at the eyes in order to
avoid serious health consequences due to irradiation
of the eyes. Exposure must be restricted to the
area of the oral cavity in which clinical treatment is
intended. Protect patient and user from reflection and
intensive scattered light by taking the appropriate
measures, e.g., glare shield or coverings.
5. CAUTION! The Elipar device generates high intensity
light. High light intensity always involves the produc -
tion of heat. The light emitted should be aimed
directly above the material to be cured - exposure
of the soft tissues (gingiva, oral mucosa, and skin)
to high-intensity light should be avoided as such
exposure may cause damage or irritation.
If applicable, cover such areas. If exposure of soft
tissues cannot be avoided, adjust the polymerization
process to the light level, e.g., by shortening the
polymerization times or increasing the distance
between the light guide exit and the material to be
cured. Longer exposure in the region of the pulp can
lead to injury or irritation of the pulp, which is why
the specified exposure times must not be exceeded.
6. Elipar may be operated only with the supplied light
guide or original 3M ESPE Elipar replacement and
accessory light guide. The light guide has to be seen
as an applied part. The use of other light guides may
