KL 1500 compact – Instructions for Use
5/12
• When the light source is switched on, all light guide exits not being used in the working
procedure must always be at a safe distance – at least 10 cm – from heat-sensitive or
flammable light-absorbing materials (prevention of possible danger of fire). Therefore take care
that each light guide exit is at the above safe distance from, for example, dark/coloured textiles
and dark/coloured wood or plastics surfaces.
• To avoid unnecessary stressing of biological tissue by illumination with visible light, reduce the
brightness and duration of illumination to the absolute minimum required level.
It is absolutely essential that you ensure that
ð your KL 1500 compact light source is operated at the voltage stated on the model plate (11);
ð all ventilation openings (9, 10) are kept free; in the event of insufficient cooling, a built-in
thermostatic switch switches the instrument off temporarily (see point 5 “Trouble shooting”);
ð the lamp has cooled down before it is changed; to remind you, a warning symbol is attached
to the lamp compartment door:
(warning of hot surface);
ð the filter slide and filter insert have cooled down before removing the filter insert; the slide
carries the warning symbol ;
ð the filter slide is in one of the two end positions when the light source is being operated (see
point 2.5 „Filter slide“)!

data“).
