•
To prevent the patient from accidentally biting the insertion
tube during an examination, it is strongly recommended that
a mouthpiece be placed in the patient's mouth before
inserting the endoscope (for GIF models only).
•
To prevent the patient from accidentally loosing dental
prosthesis, make sure that the patient removes them before
the examination.
•
Do not apply olive oil or products containing petroleum-based
lubricants (e.g. vaseline). These products may cause
stretching and deterioration of the bending section's
covering.
•
Do not allow the insertion tube to be bent within a distance of
10 cm or less from the junction of the boot. Insertion tube
damage can occur (see Figures 4.2 and 4.3).
