2. Intended Purpose of Microscopes
Caution!
This (IVD) instrument is not intended for use
in a patient environment and not intended to
be combined with medical devices as defined
by EN 60601-1. If a microscope is electrically
connected to a medical instrument in accor-
dance with EN 60601-1, the requirements de-

WARNING
Notes on handling laser devices
This microscope is not suitable for coupling
laser radiation (such as to the camera ports),
since this radiation poses a hazard for the
user (eye injury in particular).
Laser couplings require corresponding safety
devices that have to be inspected and in-
stalled by trained personnel.
For further information, please contact your
authorized Leica Microsystems representa-
tive.
