    05.2 Battery low signal When the charge of the battery becomes low after frequent use of the Silverlight, the microprocessor will allow 6 more exposures to be carried out (FAST or SLOW RISE) without any need to recharge the battery.
  • Page 11: Battery Dead Signal

    05.3 Battery dead signal The battery of the Silverlight is dead if no light is emitted when the push-button is pressed and at the same time an acoustic signal is heard (two beeps). To recharge the battery: Place the handpiece in its housing in the recharging unit (Fig.5 - Ref.B). The green battery LED will light up (Fig.4 - Ref.B).
  • Page 12: Use

    Follow the instructions given under point “07.0” very carefully. In order to use the Silverlight, the following accessories have to be connected: Fit the fiber optic into the handpiece. Do this by hand, rotating it slightly in a clockwise direction until it reaches the end of travel.
