Chapter 5 How to Use
CAUTION
 If resistance is encountered while advancing an endotherapy device within the instrument
channel, do not forcibly advance the endotherapy device. Otherwise, it may cause
malfunction of the endoscope.
 When inserting an endotherapy device, close the lid of the forceps valve. If the lid is open,
it can reduce the efficacy of the endoscope's suction system, making it impossible to
perform aspiration.
Note
 Occasionally, an endotherapy device can encounter difficulty while attempting to pass
through an angulated bending section. In such case, reduce the angulation in the bending
section a little and try to advance the endotherapy device again.
 If the handle of an endotherapy device is held tightly, the endotherapy device may not be
inserted smoothly or the maximum bending angle may decrease. If this happens,
decrease the holding force.
For information on handling an endotherapy device, refer to the manual of the endotherapy
device. Use an endotherapy device given in this manual.
