6 Press the target light switch
to center the light over the infant. Tilt or
position the light enclosure as desired.
Important! The light was factory calibrated to deliver intensive
phototherapy at a distance of 12 inches (30.5 cm) from the baby. Refer to
the service manual for information on adjusting the intensity if using the
light at other distances.

Select High or Low
intensity setting, as appropriate for the patient.

Monitor the patient
during treatment.
Warning! Regular monitoring during treatment is recommended.
Use the following guidelines:
•
Measure the patient’s bilirubin level periodically.
•
Turn the unit off when checking the baby’s condition and visualizing
skin color; blue light can hinder clinical observations by masking skin
color changes, such as cyanosis.
•
Monitor patient temperature and fluid status, especially when used with
thermotherapy.
•
Periodically verify that the baby’s eyes are protected and free of
infection.
