Integra Luxtec MLX 300 User Manual

5
• SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MUST ALWAYS BE EXERCISED WHEN
USING ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT TO PREVENT OPERATOR/
PATIENT SHOCK, FIRE HAZARD OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.
• FIRE HAZARD: DO NOT DRAPE OR COVER THE LIGHT
SOURCE WHILE IT IS OPERATING.
• Before every procedure, carefully inspect the light source to
ensure it has been properly maintained and cleaned, and that
it is fully functional. DO NOT use if inspection reveals any
damage such as case damage or loose connectors.
• Follow the instructions of other manufacturer’s equipment
when used in conjunction with this product.
• To avoid risk of electric shock, this equipment must only be
connected to a supply mains with protective earth.
• To reduce the risk of fire and electric shock, do not expose
electrical equipment to moisture. When cleaning, do not
immerse any electrical device in liquid.
• Do not use or store liquids on or above the light source.
• Electric shock hazard. If unit is not functioning properly, DO
NOT OPEN. Please refer to the Repair and Return Section of
this Manual.
• All electrical equipment must be used with approved hospital
grade power cords and power plugs inserted properly into
grounded AC power outlets. If replacement is necessary,
replace only with approved power cord.
• The light source should never be used in ocular surgery or in
a surgical procedure requiring direct illumination of the eye.
• Use care not to point any fiber optic cable directly at the eye
while operating the light source.
• The light source produces high intensity light. Thermal burns
can result from improper use of the light source or from the
light output of the fiber optic cable.
• Explosion Hazard. Do not use in an oxygen rich environment
or in the presence of flammable anesthetics, liquids, vapors,
gases or dusts.
• Keep cooling vent and fans free of obstructions.
• When light source is not in use, turn off the power or put the
unit in stand-by mode.
• Ensure that the fiber optic cable matches the port type
to prevent damaging the optical components of the light
source. For user convenience, the light source has a turret
with labeled selectable ports.
• Do not use the headlight at distances of less than 10” (25cm).
• Warning: No modification of this equipment is allowed.
• Do not position the equipment so that it is difficult to
remove the power plug.
Precautions
• Take precautions to verify that the fiber optic cable is
appropriately suited for the light source. Xenon and other
high illumination light sources require premium fiber optic
cables in order to achieve optimal performance and prevent
damage to the fibers, thereby diminishing the quality of the
light output or the useful life of fiber optic cable. Use only
fiber optic light guide cables with the correct proximal fiing
for your turret and approved and tested for compatibility
with high intensity Xenon lamps of 300W or higher.
• Take precautions not to touch or disconnect the cable end
fiing from the turret until the Light Source has been “shut
down” for a period of time and allowed to cool. The cable
end fiing will remain hot immediately following shut down,
which can cause burns.
• Take precautions to not place and rest a hot cable end fiing
and/or head light on a patient or allow the system to come
in contact with un-protected hands or tissue. The entire
system should be allowed to cool following use. Failure to do
so can cause burns and/or tissue damage.
General Warnings
The user should carefully study the Operation and Service Manual before using the equipment in a clinical environment. This
Manual contains information about the proper procedures for preparing this product for its use and care. Instructions should
be followed, with special aention given to warnings, controls and user specifications. The Manual should be available to the
appropriate personnel.
