3.7 Inspecting Distal End of Ultrasonic Endoscope
CAUTION
Turn off the lamp and stop the transmission of ultrasonic waves (freeze
the ultrasonic processor) except during a procedure, inspection, etc.,
when necessary. If the lamp is left on, the distal end may become
hot, causing burn injury to the operator, assistant or patient. Turn on
the lamp and transmit ultrasonic waves immediately before starting a
procedure.
Do not look directly into the light coming from the light guide at the
distal end of the ultrasonic endoscope. Turn off the lamp before
inspecting the objective lens. Viewing the light from the light guide
directly may damage your eyes.
CAUTION
Do not apply a lens cleaner on the transducer. If the lens cleaner
adheres to the transducer, wipe it off immediately. There is a risk of
deteriorating the transducer.
(1) Turn on the AC switch located on the side of the ultrasonic
processor.
(2) Turn the power on by pressing the standby switch on the
ultrasonic processor.
