Warning
Do NOT severely and /or forcefully bend the strain relief boot as shown in Figure 4.1. Doing so
may result in endoscope damage.
Caution
Clear images can NOT be obtained if any foreign material is attached to the objective lens or
the light guide. Continued use of the light guide with any foreign material attached to it might
cause visible steam - like vaporization associated with water vaporization of the organic material
heated by the light. If this vapor is observed, stop the procedure immediately and withdraw the
endoscope from the patient. Using clean gauze, clean off any foreign material that has attached
and then resume endoscopy.
