The visible and intense light from the cold light source is guided to the object via
light guides. Only SCHOTT light guides and SCHOTT accessories ensure proper
function, safety and optimum light output.
Please read and follow these instructions carefully. Ensure that every
operator of the device has quick access to these operating instructions.
The instrument's safety cannot be guaranteed if the instructions are not followed.
The manufacturer is not liable for any damage caused by non-observance of these
operating instructions.
•
Operate the light source only in dry conditions and not in hazardous areas.
•
When connecting the device, ensure a safe connection.
•
Operate the cold light source only with the voltage specified on the
information label.

Never cover the open light guide receptacle or the light guide output
(fire hazard)!
•
Never cover the open light guide receptacle or the light guide outlet with
