DermLite GL is a smartphone-compat- ible polarized light examina-
tion device with 6x and 1.4x magnification.
Hold your DermLite GL so that the LEDs are aimed at the skin.
Position the device ©5-50mm above the skin and push the Power
button (P) to activate one group of LEDs. To activate the other
group of LEDs for the other magnification lens, simply push the
Power button (P) again. Look through the lens with your eye
25-50mm above your DermLite. Move the device closer or farther
away from the skin to obtain the desired image focus. To turn off
your DermLite, push and hold the Power button (P) for about one
second; the unit turns off automatically after 3 minutes. To help you
approximate the size of a skin lesion, the device has a 40mm scale
(MM) debossed into its housing.
Cap
To protect the optical areas after use, slide the cap (C) over your
unit. During use, the cap can be attached over the other tail end of
your DermLite.
Photography
DermLite GL may be attached to mobile devices using DermLite
adapters (sold separately). Prior to taking photos at the higher (6x)
magnification, attach the Spacer (S), ensuring it aligns with the
notch (N).
Battery and Charging
CAUTION: This device uses a special 3.7V 1300mAh lithium ion
battery, which can only be purchased from 3Gen or from an autho-
rized 3Gen dealer. Do not under any circumstances use another
battery other than the one designed for this unit.
This device is equipped with a four-level Charge Indicator (CI).
When the unit is turned on and fully charged, all four LEDs light
up. When less than 75% of battery life remains, three LEDs are
illuminated. If more than half the battery is drained, two LEDs are
on, while a single LED indicates that less than 25% of battery
capacity remains. To charge your device, connect the supplied
USB-C to USB cable to the Charging Port (CP) and any IEC
60950-1 compliant (5V) USB port. The Charge Indicator (CI) pulses
to indicate charging, with the number of pulsing LEDs correspond-
ing with charge level. When charging is complete, all four indicator
LEDs illuminate. After years of use, you may wish to re-place the
battery, which is only available directly from 3Gen or an authorized
3Gen dealer. To change the battery, contact 3Gen or your local
3Gen dealer.
