Do not operate the product in explosive atmospheres.
Do not operate the product in environments with combustible gases such as inhalation
anesthetics and mixtures thereof. Observe the hazard zones:
Only connect or disconnect the power plug to or from the power supply outside explosive
atmospheres.
Combustible and flammable gases must be allowed to escape, be extracted, or be
displaced with CO2 before use.
Combustible and flammable liquids must be allowed to vaporize or be extracted before
use.
Only start the application when combustible or flammable gases and liquids are no longer
present.
3.6 Hot components
The high level of light intensity produced by the light source may cause the distal end, the light
connections, and adjacent components to heat up. This can cause burns to patients, users,
and third parties.
Set the light source output to a level that is just high enough to ensure optimal illumination
of the operating area.
Avoid contact with the distal end and light connections.
3.7 High light intensity
The high level of light intensity produced by the light source may lead to permanent eye
damage or blindness, and may cause tissue and items facing the light output to heat up.
Do not look into the light output.
Set the light source output to a level that is just high enough to ensure optimal illumination
of the operating area.
Make sure the light output is sufficiently far away from tissue and operating accessories.
3.8 Failure of products
The product may fail during use.
Have a replacement product ready for each application or plan for an alternative surgical
technique.
3.9 Electromagnetic interference
The product creates an electromagnetic field. This can impair or damage other electronic
devices and active implants (such as pacemakers).
Observe the information on electromagnetic compatibility.
In case of uncertainties, seek expert advice from KARL STORZ.
