3. Clean the proximal surface of the cooling window, as follows:
Prior to treatment, clean the proximal surface of the cooling window with a germicidal
disposable wipe.
During treatment, keep the proximal surface of the cooling window clear of gel by gently
wiping periodically with 4x4 gauze. Excessive top side gel may affect laser beam output,
possibly leading to adverse events such as burns.
4. Inspect the cooling window. If necessary, clean the window again.
CAUTION
The cooling window must be clean before treating a patient. Chips,
pits, cracks or burned spots on the window are not acceptable, and
a handpiece with these types of defects must be replaced.
