Eye protection
Direct or indirect exposure of the eyes must be
prevented. Prolonged exposure to the light is unpleasant
to the eyes and may result in injury. To optimize user
safety, the device has been equipped with intelligent
anti-glare protection. For this, the "polyvision" function
must be activated (see 4. Operation). With the polyvision
function activated, the Bluephase PowerCure
automatically senses if the handpiece is outside of the
mouth and automatically switches off the light if it has
been activated inadvertently. If a protective sleeve is
used, this function is not available.
Therefore, using the supplied anti-glare cones is
recommended. Individuals who are sensitive to light,
who take photosensitizing drugs, have undergone eye
surgery, or people who work with the apparatus or in its
vicinity for long periods of time should not be exposed
to its light and wear protective orange goggles that
absorb light below a wavelength of 515 nm. The same is
true for patients.
Battery
Caution: Use only original spare parts, particularly
Ivoclar Vivadent batteries and charging bases. Do not
short circuit battery. Do not touch the battery contacts.
Do not store at temperatures above 40 °C / 104 °F
(or 60 °C / 140 °F for a short period). Always store
batteries charged. The storage period must not exceed 6
months. May explode if disposed of in fire.
Please note that lithium-polymer batteries may react
with explosion, fire and smoke development if handled
improperly or mechanically damaged. Damaged lithium-
polymer batteries must no longer be used.
The electrolytes and electrolyte fumes released during
explosion, fire and smoke development are toxic and
corrosive. Do not touch leaking batteries with bare
hands. In case of accidental contact with the eyes or skin,
immediately wash with copious amounts of water. Avoid
inhalation of fumes. In case of indisposition, see a
physician immediately. Remove electrolyte residue from
surfaces by washing/wiping with a moist cloth. Wash
contaminated pieces of clothing immediately.
Heat development
As it is the case with all high-performance lights, the
high light intensity results in a certain heat develop-
ment. Prolonged exposure of areas near the pulp and
soft tissues may result in irreversible damage. Therefore,
this high-performance curing light must only be
operated by trained professionals.
Generally, the recommended curing times,
particularly in areas near the pulp, must be
observed. Using more than two 3sCure cycles
on the same tooth within a period of 30
seconds and direct contact with the gingiva,
oral mucous membrane or skin must be
strictly avoided. In addition, the light
emission window must remain positioned
exactly on the material to be cured during the
entire duration of the curing cycle (e.g. by
holding it in place using a finger). If soft tissue
exposure cannot be avoided, work with
reduced light intensity. Polymerize indirect
restorations at intermittent intervals of
10 seconds in the High Power program and
1 x 5 seconds each in the Turbo program or
use external cooling with an air stream. The
instructions regarding curing programs and
curing times must be observed (see Selecting
the curing program).
After several curing cycles on the same
tooth, there is a risk that the pulpa suffers
damage caused by the increased
temperature!
