Safety
PLEASE NOTE!
Prior to installation and start-up of the unit, carefully
read the instructions provided herein!
As with all technical devices, the proper function and
safe operation of this unit depend on the user's
compliance with the standard safety procedures as well
as the specific safety recommendations presented in
these Operating Instructions.
1. The unit must be used in strict accordance with the
following Operating Instructions. The manufacturer
accepts no liability for any damage resulting from the
use of this unit for any other purpose.
2. Prior to start-up of the unit make sure that the
operating voltage stated on the rating plate is
compatible with the available mains voltage. Opera-
tion of the unit at a different voltage may damage
the unit.
3. Irradiation of the eyes bears an inherent risk of health
damage. Hence, the light must not be directed
toward the eyes. Exposure must be restricted to the
area of the oral cavity in which clinical treatment is
intended.
4. CAUTION! The Elipar FreeLight unit generates high
intensity light. The emitted light should be positioned
directly above the material to be cured - intensive
light exposure of soft tissues (gingiva, oral mucosa,
and skin) should be avoided as such exposure may
cause damage or irritation.
If applicable, cover such areas. If exposure of soft
tissues cannot be avoided, adjust the polymerization
process to the light level, e.g. by shortening the
polymerization times or increasing the distance
between the light guide exit and the material to be
cured.
5. Condensation resulting from the unit being trans-
ferred from a cold to a warm environment may be a
potential risk. Hence, the unit should be turned on
only after it is completely equilibrated to ambient
temperature.
6. In order to avoid electric shock do not introduce any
objects into the unit with the exception of replace-
ment parts handled in accordance with the Operating
Instructions.
7. Use original 3M ESPE parts exclusively to replace
defective parts in accordance with these Operating
Instructions. The product guarantee does not cover
any damage resulting from the use of third-party
replacement parts.
