II – ROUTINE OPERATION
2.1 oPerating for the first tiMe
On receipt of the unit, look for any damage that may
have occurred during transportation. If necessary,
contact your supplier.
Prior to any use, it is essential that the sterilizable
accessories (light guide and protective shield) be
sterilized and that the unit base be disinfected (see
the maintenance chapter in the attached general user’s
manual for SATELEC curing lamps).
Remove the protective caps from the handpiece (to be
kept during maintenance to prevent the liquid products
from damaging the LEDs), and insert the sterilized light
guide into the handpiece.
Ensure that the light guide is properly inserted,
confirmed by a click.
Ensure that all the segments of the LCD screen are
present
The battery supplied is only charged to 60% prior to
shipment. Charge it fully (See 1.6 - Recharging) prior to
using it each time.
2.1 selecting curing cycles
ScanWave has several curing cycles classified into two
families called «Modes». At start-up, the device runs a
sequence of automatic tests and positions itself on the
last cycle used.
• To switch from one mode to the other, quickly press
the «Mode» button located on the left under the LCD
screen.
• To scan and select one of the cycles contained in
these modes, quickly press the «Cycle» button
located on the right under the LCD screen.

2.2 curing Modes and cycles
Scan mode
To systematically scan a continuous spectrum from
390nm to 505nm, the Scan mode can be used to
activate all photosensitive dental equipment.
This mode has 2 pre-programmed cycles:
• A continuous 9-second cycle.
• A gradual 20-second cycle including a 5-second
increase in power, 10 seconds at stable full power,
and a 5-second linear descent at the end of the cycle.
Bonding mode
Designed for dental adhesives and marked «Bond.»,
this mode has 2 cycles:
• A 5-second continuous cycle.
• A 12 x 5-second pulse cycle.
In dentistry, the pulse cycle is used to bond a complete
arch passing from one bracket to another, with each
space coinciding with a short extinguishing of the light.
2.3 oPeration
Select the curing mode and cycle that you want to
use. The time corresponding to the selected cycle is
displayed on the LCD screen in seconds. In addition,
