Frontal Button ON/OFF
By clicking on it, the user can turn on/off the device. A led ring around the button advises the user about the
status of the device.
Equipotential connector
The device, in compliance with IEC 60601-1, is provided with an equipotential connector (item 16 in the image
above) that can be connected to the equipotential line of the room where the device is used.
Accessories
Optional accessories are associated with the device (for a list of these optional accessories supplied with the
device, refer to Chapter 11 "Accessories").
Optical fiber
The optical fiber is used to deliver laser energy to the patient. It is connected to the device through a special
optical connector accessible from the frontal panel. The connector has a microswitch that disables laser emission
if the fiber is missing or not installed properly.
The optical fiber is a quartz fiber that allows the transmission of laser radiation from the laser source to the
patient. Depending on the surgical applications, the optical fiber may be sterile and disposable or sterile and
resterilizable.

Warning: Any tampering of the optical fiber contact connector and the device may cause unwanted
emission of laser radiation.
Potential danger may occur in inserting, strongly folding, or not properly securing the optical fibers. Not following
manufacturer recommendations may damage the fiber or the optical beam transmission system and/or cause
injury to the patient or user.
Warning: Any tampering of the protection of the optical fiber may cause undesired emission of laser
radiation.
The fibers are reinforced externally near the SMA connector. Twisting, straining or inducing too exaggerated
curves in the fiber could damage and/or break the optical fiber, resulting in internal radiation leakages out of the
reinforcement structure or buffer layer (depending on the damaged area).
Warning: The metal sheath protects the user and the patient from the potential radiation emission in
case of breakage of the fibers inside.
Warning: Before performing any laser emission, make sure that the probe is properly inserted and pay
attention to the pointing direction.
Caution: The use of fibers or accessories different from those supplied by the Manufacturer does not
guarantee the achievement of security requirements.
