1. Move the zoom lever toward “W ” until it stops so that the widest possible
angle is shown in the endoscopic image (for GIF-H260Z only).
2. If necessary, apply a medical-grade, water-soluble lubricant to the insertion
section.
3. Place the mouthpiece between the patient’s teeth or gums, with the outer
flange on the outside of the patient’s mouth. In case of transnasal insertion
(for GIF-N260 only), the mouthpiece is not used.
4. Insert the distal end of the endoscope through the opening of the
mouthpiece, then from the mouth to the pharynx while viewing the
endoscopic image. Do not insert the insertion section into the mouth beyond
the insertion section limit mark (for transoral endoscopy only).
5. Insert the distal end of the endoscope through the patient’s nose, then from
the nasal cavity to the pharynx while viewing the endoscopic image. Do not
insert the insertion tube into the nasal cavity beyond the insertion section
limit mark (for transnasal endoscopy only).
