Inspection and maintenance
Inspection and preventive maintenance must be performed at scheduled intervals to protect the health and
safety of patients, users and other persons.
15.1

Annual check performed by the system owner or other authorized persons

In order to ensure the operational safety and functional reliability of your product, you as the system owner
should check the equipment at regular intervals (at least once a year) or commission your dental depot to do
so.
15.2

Maintenance by the service engineer

In addition to the annual check to be carried out by the system owner or authorized persons, preventive main-
tenance must be performed after 4, 7 and 10 years, and then at two-year intervals.
15.3

Image quality check

The image quality should be assessed by the system owner at regular intervals, at least once a year.
On digital image receptor systems, the degree of postprocessing (brightness or contrast adjustment) that is
required in the image processing software (e.g. SIDEXIS) to produce satisfactory results is used as an assess-
ment criterion.
If, after taking into account the patient's anatomy and excluding possible sources of error such as incorrect
patient positioning, this criterion can be regarded as given, you should immediately contact your Customer
Service to have possible system faults rectified.
Observe any possible additional country-specific requirements.
