2.2.1 Safe use of the product
WARNING!
Risk of tissue reaction
Light is a form of energy that, on account of certain wavelengths emitted,
may not be suitable for certain pathologies.
The user must be aware of the risks of using the light on subjects who are intol-
erant to UV and/or infrared light, and on photosensitive subjects.
Before a procedure, please ensure that the light is compatible with this type of
pathology.
WARNING!
Risk of drying of tissue or burns
Light is a form of energy that can cause tissue to dry, particularly if light
beams from more than one lighthead are superimposed.
The user must be aware of the risks relating to exposure of open wounds to a
light source of too great an intensity. The user must be vigilant and must ad-
just the level of illumination to suit the patient concerned, particularly during
a lengthy procedure.
