5.3 Adjusting the brightness (automatic/manual)
If the endoscopic image dims during use, this may be a sign
that blood or mucus is adhered to the light guide on the
endoscope’s distal end. Remove the blood or mucus in order
to obtain optimum illumination and to ensure the safety of
examination. If you continue to use the endoscope in such a
condition, the distal end temperature may rise and cause
injury to the patient and/or operator.

Before disconnecting the video system from the endoscope,
be sure to press the standby switch to disable the light, or
minimize the brightness using manual brightness control. If
the video system is disconnected without performing one of
these operations, the light may cause operator eye injury or
burns.

Otherwise, the brightness will exceed the necessary level. It
may result operator and/or patient injury.
