Maintenance
5.1 Light output monitoring
1. Make sure that the LED aperture is clean and scratch-free; otherwise light output will
be reduced and may be insufficient for proper curing of the material.
2. The light intensity of SmartLite
propriate curing by using a commercially available radiometer. As radiometers differ
greatly, the following procedure is recommended.
3. Upon receipt of SmartLite
your choice and record the value. This initial reading is for reference only, and may
not represent the actual light intensity.
4. For subsequent monitoring retest the light intensity with the same radiometer that
was used for the initial reference and compare it to the reference intensity.
5. If radiometer value drops below reference intensity, light efficiency can be verified
using the i.Cure. Place i.Cure on a sheet of paper on a flat surface. Choose i.Cure
segment according to step height required (please note that the step height should
be twice the curing depth to be confirmed). Fill with composite. Hold SmartLite
Focus
in close proximity to the upper aperture and cure. If the material on the lower
®
aperture has been cured (i.e. cannot be scraped off with a plastic spatula), the curing
depth according to ISO 4049:2009 equals half the chosen step height. If i.Cure test
is successful, SmartLite
6. Do not continue to use SmartLite
sity and i.Cure test has failed.
5.2 Battery

• Battery is equipped with low self discharge technology resulting in a long operating
life.
• Battery is pre-charged and ready to use upon purchase. Charging before first use
may improve initial operating time but is not mandatory.
• When the battery light flashes green
plete recharging, the battery light remains permanently green. The battery needs
approximately 3 hours to be fully recharged. SmartLite
charging Technology. Depending on battery status, SmartLite
cally choose between Automatic Quick Charging Mode (fast flashing green light) and
Standard Charging Mode (flashing green light).
• The SmartLite
utes operating time after 10 minutes recharging.
• When the battery light flashes yellow (fast)
At first occurrence approximately 1 minute curing time remain for completion of the
treatment. Light output is not reduced during this period. After this period, the device
switches off automatically and the battery light remains permanently yellow indicat-
ing the need to recharge.
