• The products mentioned above can be used only in medical facilities by a doctor familiar with their use and in accordance
with the current medical standard.
• To avoid damaging the probe and the endoscope, the instrument may only be introduced into and withdrawn from the
endoscope when the instrument is in a retracted position. In doing so, the handle should not be squeezed!
• To avoid damaging the probe and shaft, the instrument may only be activated in an extended position. In doing so, the
handle must be squeezed!
• The power output of the RF/HF generator should always be set as low as necessary to achieve the desired effect.
• Avoid power output settings of the RF/HF generator where the maximum output voltage may exceed the maximum
permitted voltage of the Vaporflex
• Keep the active probes clean. Build-up of eschar may reduce the instrument's effectiveness. Do not activate the instru-
ment while cleaning.
ELECTRO MAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC)
Medical electrical equipment needs special precautions regarding EMC and needs to be installed and put into service

in increased emissions or decreased immunity of the medical electrical equipment.
PRINCIPLE OF BIPOLAR ELECTROSURGERY
Bipolar RF/HF surgery is the treatment of tissue by applying a high-frequency alternating current, which generates heat.
Heat can shrink, cut, coagulate, and stop tissue bleeding. In bipolar configuration the RF/HF current flows from one branch
of the instrument across the soft tissue to the second branch with a localized effect as required. The use of a neutral elec-
trode is redundant with bipolar RF/HF applications. Branches are the non-insulated areas of the probe tip.
