• Do not apply a strong impact to the AC adapter by hitting it against the wall or dropping it to the floor, etc.
Otherwise, malfunction or damage may be caused and result in electric shock.
• If you sense any abnormality while inserting the insertion tube into the inspection object, do not attempt
to insert it forcibly any more but carefully pull out the insertion tube. Note the following when pulling out
the insertion tube.
- Do not pull out the insertion tube from the inspection object while the angulation is locked or while the
angulation section is bent.
- If the insertion tube is caught on something during pulling it out, rotate the insertion tube gently while
continuing to pull out.
• Note the following precautions when handling the distal end of the insertion tube.
- Do not drop the optical adapter or subject it to strong impact.
- Do not subject the distal end to severe impact or pulling.
- Do not subject the angulation section to strong pressure or bending.
- Do not move with holding the distal end of the insertion tube.
- Do not use this instrument if the O-ring of the distal end of the insertion tube is damaged or torn.
Otherwise, the glass lenses and the precision components which constitute the distal end and the
angulation section may be damaged.
• Always attach the optical adapter before using this instrument.
If you use the instrument without attaching the optical adapter to the insertion tube, parts (screws, etc.)
are easily deformed due to contact with hard objects, etc. If the insertion tube parts are deformed, the
optical adapter cannot be attached or may fall off.
• Never use the optical adapter if any of its parts are loose.
Otherwise, the loose parts may fall off.
• If the optical adapter cannot be attached or removed because the nut does not rotate, stop using it.
Contact Olympus.
• If you sense any abnormality while performing the angulation operation, do not attempt to force the
angulation operation.
Otherwise, the insertion tube or the inspection object may be damaged.
• When hanging the main unit on your shoulder using the shoulder strap, do not allow it to be caught on
other objects.
Be careful so that it does not strangle your neck.
• Do not allow metal or other foreign objects to enter the main unit through connector terminals or any
other openings.
Otherwise, the malfunction or electric shock may result.
• Do not use this instrument near the strong electromagnetic radiation source.
The proper operations may be interfered. Check the electromagnetic environment before using this
instrument.
• The interfaces in the connector cover, SDHC card and USB flash drive are high sensitivity parts. Be
sure to remove the electricity before use.
Otherwise, the malfunction may occur due to the static electricity.
• Remove the electricity around the heat sink of the main unit before operation.
Otherwise, the malfunction may occur due to the static electricity.
• Do not use the parts other than the insertion tube underwater or clean them under running water.
Otherwise, water creates the risk of electric shock. The parts other than the insertion tube are designed
for water proof construction only if the battery cover and connector covers are closed completely. Do not
use or store the instrument in an environment where it is submerged in water.
• Do not subject the LCD monitor to strong impact, strong pressure or to scratching by a hard or pointed object.
Otherwise, the LCD monitor may be cracked or scratched, or the damaged monitor may cause
personal injury.
• When tilting the handle, be careful not to pinch your hands or any objects.
• Use SDHC card and microSDHC card recommended by Olympus to record images.
This instrument comes with an SDHC card.
