4.7 TIP INITIATION INSTRUCTIONS
VERIFYING THE TIP
Prior to initiating the tip, verify that it is installed correctly into the iLase cover (see previous section).
The Tip Initiation Aid screen appears as you enter Ready Mode [1.4W / CW]. You will need to have
the Tip Initiation Block handy to perform this step.

Touch the tip to the surface of the tip initiation block, without firing. Fire the laser by gently squeezing
the finger grip, allowing the tip to sink into the block. Pull the tip out when the metal cannula touches
the block, still firing until just before the tip is out of the block. Fire the laser into the air once. You will
see a white flash or a glowing tip. A glowing tip indicates that the tip is ready for use. During a
procedure, there is a chance the tip can lose its initiation; repeat the tip initiation procedure, if
necessary.
When you have finished the tip initiation, you are ready to begin the procedure. Press the Selector
Switch to move to the Main Screen while keeping the system in Ready Mode.
