WARNING 35 Abnormal switching off procedure:
- The switching off procedure was not carried out correctly the last time the device
was used;
- The device switched off during use due to outside interference.
05.6 Instructions for use
1
Connect the scaler handpiece to the cord, after checking that the electric contacts on both are
perfectly dry. If necessary, dry the contacts by blowing air onto them with the syringe.
2
Screw the chosen insert onto the scaler handpiece until it fits closely (Fig. 9 - Ref.A).
3
Use the torque wrench included in the supply to tighten the insert.
To use the torque wrench correctly (Fig.9 - Ref.B) proceed as follows:
Hold the housing of the handpiece firmly;
� WARNING: Do not grip the handpiece by the end part and/or by the cord, but only on the
plastic housing (Fig.9 - Ref.C), and do not turn it while tightening the insert.
- Turn the torque wrench in a clockwise direction until the clutch engages (the outer body of the
wrench slides in relation to the housing of the handpiece).
- The insert is now properly tightened.
4
Select the required power level by means of the two - and + keys (Fig.7 - Ref.B):
- From 1 to 2 ENDO
- From 3 to 5 PERIO
- From 6 to 9 SCALER.
5
Select the required speed of the peristaltic pump by means of the two - and + keys
(Fig.7 - Ref.A):
- 0 treatment without liquid;
- from 1 to 9 treatment with liquid.
8
The device has a sophisticated electronic circuit enabling the scaler to offset wear of the insert
so as to keep the efficiency of the ultrasound generator constantly high.
9
Upon completing the treatment place the scaler handpiece back in its holder.
10 With this device it is possible to use the Starlight p (optional), a curing lamp for dental
composites. The device recognised insertion of the "Starlight p" automatically when it is set to
a power level between 3 and 9 (Fig.7 - Ref.C). For correct use, consult the User and Mainte-
nance manual of the "Starlight p".
NOTE: When you stop using the piezo smart, switch off the device as indicated under point 05.2.
C
05.7 Checking the inserts for wear
1
Check the insert regularly for wear and replace it if a drop in performance is noted.
2
Do not alter the shape of the insert in any way by bending or filing it.
3
Replace the insert if it has become deformed or received blows.
4
If the insert becomes excessively worn, the scaler will stop working as the APC circuit will be
tripped (see Section"05.3").

0.0 Cleaning, disinfection and sterilisation
06.1 CLEAN Function - Cleaning of the liquid circuit
The device has a CLEAN function (See Section 05.3) that enables a cleaning cycle to be carried
out on the hydraulic circuit. This function should be used after using the device, before cleaning,
disinfecting and sterilising all the parts (see below).
� WARNING: If the circuit is not cleaned, salts may crystallise in it and could seriously damage
the device.
1
Replace the bottle with one containing water (demineralised water is recommended).
2
Place the handpiece over a bowl to collect the liquid that will come out during the cleaning
cycle.
3
To activate the CLEAN function, use the "-" key to set the power level to less than 1
(Fig.7 - Ref.B). The wording "clean" and the associated status bar will appear on the display
(Fig.8 - Ref.C).
NOTE: If you have selected the Clean function by mistake, press the "+" key below the wording
"esc".
4
Fit one of the inserts used during treatment onto the handpiece.
5
Press the pedal briefly to start the cleaning cycle. As soon as the peristaltic pump starts, a
status bar will appear on the display, and will increase to indicate the time to completion of
the CLEAN cycle. You can stop the cycle by pressing the pedal again or the "+" key below the
wording "esc".
6
When the Clean cycle has been completed, the device exits the CLEAN function and returns to
the function that was set previously.
7
Repeat the above steps from point 2 to carry out a cleaning cycle on the tubes and all the
accessories used, such as:
- handpieces (check that the electric contacts of the connector on the cord of accessory to be
subjected to the cleaning cycle are dry);
- inserts.
8
After the cleaning operations, empty the tubes and dry the accessories that have undergone
cleaning.
06.2 Cleaning and disinfecting the housing of the device
B
� DANGER: Switch off the device.
Always switch off the device and unplug it from the power outlet before carrying out the following
cleaning, disinfection and sterilisation activities.
� DANGER: The housing of the device is not protected against the penetration of liquids. Do not
spray any liquids directly onto the surface of the housing of the device.
� DANGER: The device cannot be sterilised.
After each treatment, proceed as follows:
1
Remove the insert from the scaler handpiece.
2
Clean and disinfect the surfaces of the housing, the cords and the connectors using a cloth
moistened with a mild detergent or disinfectant solution with a neutral pH (pH7). Follow
carefully the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the disinfectant solution. Allow the
disinfectant solution to dry in air before using the device.
NOTE: Water-based disinfectant solutions with a neutral pH are highly recommended. Some
alcohol-based disinfectants may be harmful, discolour and/or damage plastic materials.
