3M Elipar DeepCure-S Betriebsanleitung Seite 4

SEITE 2 - 148 x 210 mm - 3100021789/01 - SCHWARZ - 20-053 (kn)
with oral mucosa or skin must be strictly avoided.
Scientists working in this field are in agreement
that the irritation caused by heat generated during
light curing can be minimized by taking two simple
precautions:
• Polymerization with external cooling from an air flow
• Polymerization at intermittent intervals
(e.g., 2 exposures lasting 10 seconds each ins-
tead of 1 exposure lasting 20 seconds).
9. Elipar DeepCure-S may be operated only with the
supplied light guide or original 3M Elipar
DeepCure-S replacement light guide. The light
guide has to be seen as an applied part. The use of
other light guides may result in a reduction or in-
crease in the light intensity. The product's warranty
does not cover any damage resulting from the use
of third-party light guides.
10. Condensation resulting from the unit being trans -
ferred from a cold to a warm environment may be
a potential risk. Hence, the unit should be turned on
only after it is completely equilibrated to ambient
temperature.
11. In order to avoid electric shock do not introduce any
objects into the unit with the exception of replace-
ment parts handled in accordance with the Operating
Instructions.
12. Use only genuine 3M parts when replacing defective
components as directed in these Operating Instructi-
ons. The product's warranty does not cover any da-
mage resulting from the use of third-party replace-
ment parts.
13. Should you have any reason to suspect the safety of
the unit to be compromised, the unit must be taken
out of operation and labeled accordingly to prevent
third parties from inadvertently using a possibly
defective unit. Safety may be compromised, e.g.,
if the unit malfunctions or is noticeably damaged.
14. Keep solvents, flammable liquids, and sources of
intense heat away from the unit as they may damage
the plastic housing of the charger, the seals, or the
cover on the operating buttons.
15. Do not operate the unit in the proximity of flammable
mixtures.
16. Do not allow cleaning agents to enter the unit as
this may short-circuit the unit or cause potentially
dangerous malfunction.
17. Only service centers authorized by 3M Deutsch-
land GmbH may open the unit housing and repair
the device.
18. WARNING: this device must not be modified without
the manufacturer's permission.
19. Elipar DeepCure-S must not be used in patients, or
by users, with heart pacemaker implants who have
2
been advised to be cautious with regard to their
exposure to small electrical devices.
20. Do not use Elipar DeepCure-S in patients with a his-
tory of photobiological reactions (including
individuals with urticaria solaris or erythropoetic
protoporphyria) or who are currently on photo -
sensitizing medication (including 8-methoxypsoralen
or dimethylchlorotetracycline).
21. Individuals with a history of cataract surgery may be
particularly sensitive to the exposure to light and
should be discouraged from Elipar DeepCure-S
treatment unless adequate safety measures, such
as the use of protective goggles to remove blue
light, are undertaken.
22. Individuals with a history of retinal disease should
seek advice from their ophthalmologist prior to
operating the unit. In operating the Elipar DeepCure-S
unit, this group of individuals must take extreme
care and comply with any and all safety precautions
(including the use of suitable light-filtering safety
goggles).
23. This unit has been developed and tested in
accordance with the relevant EMC regulations and
standards. It is in conformity with legal requirements.
Since various factors such as power supply, wiring,
and the ambient conditions at the place of operation
can affect the EMC properties of the unit, the possi-
bility that, under unfavorable conditions, there will
be EMC disruptions cannot be completely excluded.
If you should notice problems in the operation of this
or other units, move the unit to a different location.
The EMC manufacturer's declaration and the recom-
mended separation distances between portable
and mobile RF communications equipment and the
Elipar DeepCure-S unit are listed in the appendix.
24. CAUTION! Portable high-frequency communication
devices including their accessories should keep a
minimum distance of 30 cm to Elipar DeepCure-S.
Otherwise, the performance characteristics of the
device may be reduced.
25. Prior to each use of the unit ensure that the emitted
light intensity is sufficient to safely guarantee poly-
merization. Use the light testing area integrated into
the charger for this purpose.
Please report a serious incident occurring in relation to
the device to 3M and the local competent authority (EU)
or local regulatory authority.
