DO NOT LEAVE THE SYSTEM IN AN UNCONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT WHERE THE TEMPERATURE COULD DROP BELOW 41°F (5°C) (E.G. THE
TRUNK OF A CAR). IF THIS OCCURS, ALLOW THE SYSTEM TO WARM UP TO ROOM TEMPERATURE FOR TEN TO FIFTEEN MINUTES BEFORE THE
UNIT IS ACTIVATED.
Warm-up Mode (Picasso Only)
If, during the self-diagnostic routine, the diode laser temperature is below 64°F (18°C), the system will go into warm-up mode. Follow
these instructions:
1. Press the STANDBY/READY button.
2. Press and hold the footswitch.
3. The STANDBY/READY light will flash and a beep will sound until the system is sufficiently warmed up. This may take up to two
minutes. The handpiece should be left in the holder with the fiber pointing down.
4. Hold the footswitch until the warm-up sequence stops.
Note: Always wear protective laser safety goggles during the warm-up, even while output power is negligible. The warm-up mode
will not function at temperatures below 41°F (5°C). If the temperature of the unit drops below 41°F (5°C), the system should be left to
warm up to room temperature for ten to fifteen minutes before the warm-up mode is activated.
