6.1
Inspection
(1) Visual Inspection
Prior to using the system every time, do the following inspections:
1)
Check the system and accessories to see if there is any visible evidence of damage that
may affect the patient's or operator's safety.
2)
Check the power cables for damage and connection.
3)
Check if the system functions properly.
If any damage is detected, stop using the system. Replace the damage part(s) or contact the
manufacturer for service before reusing it.
(2) Routine Inspection
The overall check of the system, including safety check and function check, should be performed
by qualified personnel every 12 months or according to local regulations, and each time after
service.
The equipment should undergo periodic safety testing to ensure proper patient isolation from
leakage currents. This should include leakage current measurement and insulation testing. The
recommended testing interval is once a year or as specified in the institution's test and inspection
protocol.
WARNING
Failure on the part of the responsible individual hospital or institution employing the use

Daily Maintenance
When the camera is not in use, turn off the power and cover the lens with the dust cover.
Do not touch the lens with your fingers. The grease on the fingers may damage the plating film
on the lens, and the finger print may affect the image quality as well.
Keep the lens dry, avoid exposing it in extreme temperature and humidity, and protect it from
direct sunshine.
