PERFORMANCE DATA
The performance data is obtained from a clinical study, performed with the predicate device Icare ic100 (similar technology, energy source, materials, probe,
bench test results), according to the American National Standard ANSI Z80.10-2009 and International Standard ISO 8612 for tonometers. The study was
performed at the Manipal University, India. In the study, 151 patients were measured in sitting position. The mean paired difference and standard deviation
(Icare-Goldmann) were -0.48 mmHg and 1.68 mmHg.
MAINTENANCE
Follow local regulations and recycling instructions regarding the disposal or recycling of the Icare tonometer and accessories.
WARNING
The tonometer should only be opened by qualified service personnel. It contains no user-serviceable parts, apart from the batteries and a probe base. The Icare
tonometer requires no routine servicing or calibration other than changing the batteries at least every 12 months and the probe base. If there is reason to
believe servicing of the device is necessary, contact qualified service personnel or your local Icare representative.
PRECAUTION
Keep the tonometer out of reach of children. The probe base, battery compartment cover, screws, collar and probes are small objects and may be accidentally
swallowed.
REPLACING THE PROBE BASE
Change the probe base after six months. If the error message Change is shown on the display screen more than two times in a row after changing the probe,
replace the probe base before resuming use of the device.
Instructions for replacing the probe base:
• Turn power off from the tonometer.
• By hand, unscrew the probe base collar and place it in a safe location.
• Pull the probe base out of the tonometer using thumb and fingers.
• Insert a new probe base into the tonometer.
• Screw the collar down until it firmly locks the probe base.
