Follow the warnings and cautions given below when handling this instrument.
This information is to be supplemented by the warnings and cautions given in
each chapter.
• After using this instrument, reprocess and store it according
to the instructions given in the endoscope’s companion
reprocessing manual. Using improperly or incompletely
reprocessed or stored instruments may cause patient
cross-contamination and/or infection.
• Do not strike, bend, hit, pull, twist, or drop the endoscope’s
distal end, insertion tube, bending section, control section,
universal cord, or endoscope connector of the endoscope
with excessive force. The endoscope may be damaged and
could cause patient injury, burns, bleeding and/or
perforations. It could also cause parts of the endoscope to fall
off inside the patient.
• Never perform angulation control forcibly or abruptly. Never
forcefully pull, twist or rotate the angulated bending section.
Patient injury, bleeding and/or perforation can result. It may
also become impossible to straighten the bending section
during an examination.
• Never insert or withdraw the endoscope’s insertion tube while
the bending section is locked in position. Patient injury can
result.
• Do not touch the light guide of the endoscope connector
immediately after removing it from the light source because it
is extremely hot. Operator or patient burns can result.
• Never perform flexibility adjustment, operate the bending
section, feed air or perform suction, insert or withdraw the
endoscope’s insertion tube without viewing the endoscopic
image. Never use endo-therapy accessories without viewing
the endoscopic image. Patient injury can result.
