Recommended Cure Techniques with 3M Adhe-
sives
• Rotate the light guide into the desired position for
polymerization.
• A barrier sleeve may be used. Note that sleeve can
impact power and irradiance of a curing light. It is
critical to ensure the sleeve is powder free and the
seam is not over the tip of the light guide and that
the sleeve fits well. Intermediate level disinfection
(manual disinfection with ready-to-use disinfectant
wipes) is indicated when a sleeve is used, otherwise
the light guide should undergo high level disinfection
(manual disinfection using disinfectant bath, see
"Reprocessing the Light Guide").

Sleep Mode

The handpiece begins charging automatically when
connected to the charger (green status light blinks) if
the battery requires charging. If the charging voltage
is not correct (e.g., there is dirt on the contacts in the
charger socket or the charger), the handpiece goes
into sleep mode. If the handpiece is not connected to
the charger and is not used for a period of about
5 minutes, it also goes into sleep mode. In this opera-
tion mode, all of the displays and signals of the hand-
piece are turned off so that power consumption is
reduced to a minimum. To terminate the sleep mode
press the START button.
- The sleep mode termination signal (two short
audible signals) is emitted indicating that the
handpiece is ready for operation; the handpiece
displays the latest selected exposure mode and
time settings.

Audible Signals - Handpiece

Impacts
An audible signal is emitted
Power or
• every time a button is pressed,
Irradiance
• every time the light is turned ON,
No
• 1 time after 5 sec exposure time, 2 times after 10 sec,
3 times after 15 sec.
No Exception: in continuous mode; an audible signal is
emitted every 10 seconds.
Two audible signals are emitted
No
• every time the sleep mode is terminated by pressing
the START button,
No
• every time the light is turned OFF.
A 2 sec-error signal is emitted, if
Yes
• the handpiece over-heats,
• the battery lacks sufficient charge.
The audible signals from the handpiece can be turned
off (except for the 2-sec error signal). Follow these
instructions to turn them off. Plug the charger into a
functioning power outlet, then press and hold down the
TIME and START buttons at the same time with one
hand. With the other hand, connect the charging cable
from the power supply to the charging socket of the
handpiece. An audible signal confirms that there has
been a change from "Audible signals activated" to
"Audible signals deactivated". Release the two buttons
and disconnect the handpiece from the charger. Repeat
the above procedure to activate the audible signals.
