Set-up and Operation Instructions
Compatibility of Existing Sapphire
®
and Sapphire Plus Lights and Devices
The labeling on the curing handpiece and Sapphire light source will indicate whether these are different than
the new Sapphire Plus. The curing handpiece and Sapphire Light source may be labeled Sapphire, Rembrandt
®
Sapphire, or Sapphire Supreme.
The curing handpieces for the new Sapphire Plus light have been designed to work with existing Sapphire lights
(reverse compatible). At the same time, curing handpieces for existing Sapphire lights can be used with the new
Sapphire Plus light (forward compatible).
Using Existing Sapphire Curing Handpieces
When using existing curing devices in the Sapphire Plus, it is necessary to manually select the correct mode of
operation.
When the Sapphire Plus light is powered up without a device installed in the light guide receptacle on the front
of the light source, the error message “No HP” (no handpiece) will appear on the display.
When existing curing handpieces are installed in the light source, the display windows will change from “No HP”
to a flashing “Ch HP” (choose handpiece). This means that a handpiece has been recognized and the operator
is being prompted to select the correct user mode. Press the LEFT arrow key to advance directly to the SCOPE
MODE or press the RIGHT arrow key to step through the BLEACH, SCOPE and CURING MODES and press
the SELECT button to enter that mode. Warning: Scope Mode is no longer used. Do not stay in scope mode.
Follow all other instructions for operation of that mode.
Press SELECT to stay in the CURE mode and the LEFT or RIGHT arrow keys to alternate between the two
curing timers C1 and C2.
Using the new Sapphire Plus Curing Handpieces
The curing handpiece for the new Sapphire Plus light has been designed to work with existing Sapphire lights
(reverse compatible).
Follow all operating instructions for the selected handpiece.
Install Power Cord, Install Handpiece, and Power Up
Install the AC power cord into the power inlet on the back of the Sapphire Plus light source and into a grounded
AC socket.
Insert the proximal end of the fiber optic light guide on the curing / bleaching handpieces into the light guide
receptacle on the front of the Sapphire Plus light source.
Turn the power switch on the back of the system to the ON ( I ) position. Press the SELECT button to enter the
Curing mode (CURE) or use the LEFT or RIGHT arrow keys to choose the BLEACH modes and press SELECT
to enter that mode.
Warning: Double check that the system is in the right mode as indicated by the green indicator light.
The Sapphire Plus is ready for use. It is necessary to read and understand all usage and safety precautions
before use of this system.
