Safety
Service operation
Service activities may be carried out only by authorized, trained service technicians. If side panels as well as
covers get removed and safety devices get bypassed, it can lead to direct and indirect scattered radiation.
The service operation is therefore declared as laser class 4 (US: class IV) and proper precautions need to be
taken (see "Laser classification").
