WARNING:

patient.
NOTE:
For details of operations such as starting and stopping, please refer to the
PENTAX Video Processor Instructions for Use.
1) (Endoscopes with Magnification Control Lever)
Turn the magnification control lever counterclockwise to return to the standard non-
magnified viewing.
CAUTION:
For safety reasons, always insert and advance the endoscope in the
standard, non-magnified mode. Magnified vision reduces the area of the
viewing field. Do not advance the endoscope in the magnified mode.
2) Slowly insert the endoscope under direct vision.
3) ・ Oral insertion
When the distal end of the endoscope is passed through the pharynx, the patient
should be gently biting down on the bite block to maintain the bite block's
position during the procedure.
・ Nasal insertion
This applies to EG-1690K.
