Intended use

i
NOTICE
Before operating the laser, please read these operating instructions and famil-
iarize yourself thoroughly with its functions. The unit must be checked and
maintained at regular intervals, as described in the section on Maintenance. If
any tissue is unintentionallyexposed to irradiation, this may lead to burns. This
risk can be reduced by surrounding the target area with moistened sterile
drapes or gauze doused in salt. These covering materials must meet the re-
quirements of laser surgery. A fume extractor or an in-line filter should be used
to remove the drift smoke if possible. The operating personnel should be
aware of the fact that the drift smoke constitutes a source of biologically active
material. It may contain particles of viable tissue.

NOTICE
