WARNING: Breakage and wear-out of
the inserts. In rare cases, high frequency
oscillations and wear-out may lead to
breakage of an insert. Deformed or otherwise
damaged inserts are susceptible to breakage
during their use. These inserts must never
be used. Should an insert fracture during
use, extreme care must be exercised to
ensure that all the fragments of the insert
are retrieved and removed from the surgical
site and, at the same time, that an effective
suction is applied. During surgery, frequently
check that the insert is intact, especially in its
apical part. During surgery, avoid prolonged
contact with retractors or other metal objects
being used. During surgery, do not apply
excessive pressure on the inserts.
WARNING: If an adverse event and/or
serious accident attributable to the device
occurs during correct and intended use, it is
recommended to report it to the Competent
Authority and to the manufacturer indicated
