3.8 Inspecting Distal End of Endoscope
CAUTION
Turn off the lamp when this product is not used for a long time, such as
while hanging it on a hanger before use. If the lamp is left on, the distal
end may become hot, causing burn injury to the patient.
Do not look directly into the light coming from the light guide at the
distal end of the endoscope. Turn off the lamp before inspecting the
objective lens. Viewing the light from the light guide directly may
damage your eyes.
(1) Make sure that the lamp is turned off.
Be sure that the objective lens and light guides on the distal
end of the endoscope are not disengaged, but remain fixed.
Look the distal end from an angle to check no dirt or foreign
substances adhering to the objective lens.
[Note]
Check that the objective lens and its surroundings are free
from cracks.
Also, check the following:
•
The cover of the distal end is securely fixed.
• The light guides are free from cracks and are securely
fixed.
• Each nozzle is free from cracks and crushes and is
securely fixed.
• The side surface of the distal end is free from scratches,
peeling and abnormal bulging.
[Note]
If the distal adhesives are missing, peeling, deteriorated
or if any lens is damaged or missing, contact your local
FUJIFILM dealer.
