WARNING
Risk of patient injury
The proper functioning of the system must be
checked each time before use.
WARNING
Risk of patient injury
The system may only be used in accordance
with the information in the chapter, "Intended
use".
WARNING
Risk of patient injury
If the light fields from several lights overlap,
the heat input to the wound site may be
unacceptably high. This can lead to drying
out of the wound site.
If necessary, the total irradiance must be
adjusted by reducing the illuminance of
individual lights, see "Setting the
illuminance" on page 42.
WARNING
Risk of personal injury and property damage
Do not place objects on the light heads or
hang them on the arm system. These objects
can fall down into the operating field.
Do not hang heavy loads on the arm system
(e.g., leaning body weight). The mechanism
of the arm system may be damaged, which
may compromise the correct positioning of
the arm system.
CAUTION
Risk of personal injury and property damage
The stops on the arm system may become
damaged.
When positioning the swivel arms and the
attached devices, take care not to use force to
pull the arm system beyond the stops.
