After treatment
Please bend back the single-use tip as straight as possible before
moving the fiber within the single-use tip.
As soon as you disassemble the optical fiber after treatment make sure
to protect the optical fiber socket and the optical fiber with the protective
caps provided for this purpose.
For cleaning, disinfecting and sterilizing the optical fiber please refer to
chapter "Cleaning, disinfection and sterilization" [→ 61].
CAUTION
Cover the optical fiber socket and the optical fiber with the special
protective caps provided for this purpose after every treatment.
Prevent dust, dirt and foreign particles from entering the optical fiber
socket. Make sure that the optical system is clean before connecting
the optical fiber.
Make sure that no dust or dirt can enter the optical fiber socket or the
optical system. Otherwise the unit may be permanently damaged.
If the optical fiber is moved in a bent single-use tip the surface of the
optical fiber may be destroyed (danger of optical fiber breakage).
4.4.2.3.3 Preparation for clinical application
1. Select the required optical fiber (200 µm or 320 µm), see chapter
„List of preset indications".
2. Make sure that the optical fiber is clean and sterile. Handpiece
sleeve and the stainless steel handpiece back-sleeve can be
cleaned in the autoclave (high-pressure sterilizer), see chapter
"Cleaning, disinfection and sterilization" [→ 61].
WARNING
Use of the laser unit when the aiming beam is not functioning properly
may cause injuries to operating personnel, assistants or patients. If
you cannot see the red aiming beam after switching the laser on or
during treatment refer to chapter "Troubleshooting of simple defects"
[→ 65].
The optical fiber may be damaged if it is seriously bent or improperly
routed inside the handpiece. This may constitute a health hazard for
patients, dentists and dental assistants.
The optical fiber must be cleaned, disinfected and sterilized prior to
every treatment.
Remove the protection caps for treatment only.
Never touch the proximal end of the ferrule and protect them against
damage and dirt.
Never use the laser without fiber, check for correct fixation.
Never bend, fold or jam the optical fiber, as this might cause it to break.
The single-use tip must never be bent without the bending tool.
Never pull on the optical fiber.
Bear in mind the maximum bending radius of the optical fiber:
• Short-term (during treatment): 100 x radius of optical fiber
• Long-term (during storage): 600 x radius of optical fiber
