line, ask the surgeon to activate just irrigation until the bubbles have been
expelled, before reinserting the surgical instrument’s tip in the patient’s eye.
U/S
• Do not activate the phaco U/S handpiece with the phaco tip in air. The
ultrasonic power should be applied to the phaco handpiece with the phaco tip
immersed in a test chamber filled with infusion fluid or in a beaker of sterile
fluid at ambient temperature. Otherwise handpiece damage may result.
• Do not check vibration by placing hand or finger against handpiece tip.
Prolonged exposure to or direct contact with the vibrating tip may cause
damage to healthy tissue.
• Always use the lowest ultrasonic output power level which is compatible to
the surgical application.
• The phaco handpiece must be connected to the PULSAR

Vit
• Do not activate the vitrectomy handpiece with the tip in air. The tip should
always be test run in a beaker of sterile solution. Testing in air will cause
irreparable damage to the tip.

• The footswitch is not autoclaveable.
Sterilization
• The re-use of materials labelled as “For single use” may be cause of
