Safety Features
(For Models LS-R 250, LS-R 750, LS-I 500, LS-I 1500)
The LS-Series Treatment Heads are equipped with an “ambient
light sensor” which will prevent the Head from starting if not
secured to the body. If the Treatment Head is not secure, an
error message (see section “Error Messages”) will be displayed
on the LCD. The operator may then proceed with discretion. The
ambient light sensor is designed to measure the amount of
ambient light present in the room prior to invoking a treatment.
If the Treatment Head is securely attached to the patient, the
amount of ambient light reaching the sensor will be minimal. If
the Treatment Head is not secure, the amount of ambient light
reaching the sensor will be significant. Therefore, the amount of
ambient light may vary in different locations.

To prevent the treatment arrays from becoming
too warm or uncomfortable to the patient, it is
recommended that the operator should cool
them after 40 minutes of use (e.g. one
treatment that delivers 20 minutes of red light
followed by 20 minutes of infrared light) by
using Meditech’s fan for 2 minutes or 6 minutes
at ambient temperature (without a cooling fan).
The above mentioned cooling procedure applies
to protocols with continuous wave mode of
operation at 100% power. With protocols using
modulation mode of operation and/or less
power, treatment times can be longer between
cooling periods.
If the patient finds that Treatment Head is becoming too
warm or uncomfortable, STOP or PAUSE the
treatment, remove the Treatment Head and allow it to
cool until it is cool to the touch. Use CAUTION, if very
young children or pets are being treated. It is
recommended that the operator watch children for
unintentional contact of the Treatment Head surfaces
because they may not be aware of potential surface
temperatures.
