Safety Issues
Check USBcam4 before Using It
There are no customer-serviceable components in the USBcam4.
However, before each usage, check the outer surface of the
USBcam4 for any signs of physical damage or defect. The surface
of the USBcam4 should have a smooth finish, with no evidence of
chipping or damage to either the handpiece housing or the lens
section. If detected, contact your local distributor of Sirona Dental
products for further instructions.
To help ensure proper hygiene and to protect against infectious
disease, refer to Section 5 on page 25 and follow all cleaning and
patient protection recommendations specified there.
Avoid Excessive Temperatures when Using USBcam4
When in use, the LEDs in the USBcam4 may generate surface
temperatures in excess of 106° F (41° C). To avoid the potential risk
of burn, do not use the USBcam4 in a single hand-held position for a
prolonged period. As an additional safety measure, the USBcam4 is
equipped with an Auto-Off feature. This feature turns off the camera
automatically after 5 minutes of continuous use. The camera can be
turned back on by simply pressing the ON/OFF button on the
handpiece.
Operate the USBcam4 as Directed
Always use the USBcam4 in accordance with the directions and
recommendations contained in this User Guide. Do not attempt to
modify the USBcam4 or use it in system configurations not
specified in this document.
RF Interference Considerations
Although the USBcam4 equipment is designed to provide a
reasonable degree of protection from electromagnetic interference,
according to IEC International regulations, it must be installed at an
adequate distance from electricity transformer rooms, static
continuity units, two-way amateur radios and cellular phones. To
ensure proper operation, the latter (meaning, electricity transformer
rooms, static continuity units, two-way amateur radios and cellular
phones) can be used only at a minimum distance of 5 feet (1.5m)
from any part of the USBcam4 system.
Any instrumentation or equipment for professional use located near
USBcam4 must conform to Electromagnetic Compatibility
regulations. Non-conforming equipment, with known poor
immunity to electromagnetic fields, may not operate properly unless
