2 Do not look into the LED light
The P2-CIA Coaxial Epi Illuminator, C-FDF Flexible
Double Arm Fiber Illumination Unit, P2-FIR Ring
Fiber Illumination Unit, C-LSL2 LED Epi Illuminator
2, P2-FIRL2 LED Ring Illumination Unit 2 and
C-FID2 Double Arm Fiber Illuminator use LEDs as
the light source. A label indicating photobiological
safety is attached to these devices in order to bring
attention to the following. (For details about the
label attachment position, see "Label Attached to
the Product" on page v.)
"Possibly hazardous optical radiation emitted from
this product. Do not stare at operating lamp.
May be harmful to the eyes.
RISK GROUP 2 IEC62471: 2006"
Also pay attention to brightness control of the light
source and to avoid looking at bright light for an
extended period.
3 Be careful of the heat of the empty cube
Immediately after diascopic observation using an
epi-fluorescence attachment, the front face of the
empty cube may become hot, resulting in burns. Do
not touch the front face of the empty cube. Replace
the empty cube several minutes after diascopic
observation.
4 Caution on light leakage
Do not use the epi-fluorescence attachment when
the filter cube replacement cover is open. Harmful
light including ultraviolet light may leak and affect
fluorescence observation.
5 Specification of the light source
Be sure to use the specified light source for an
illumination device. Using a light source not
specified can cause malfunction and induce an
accident. For the specified light source, see
Chapter 5, "1 Performance Properties" or the
instruction manual for the light source.
6 Movement of motorized device
The microscope system contains motorized
devices. To avoid accidental injury by the
movements of the motorized devices, be careful
with the following when controlling the movements
of motorized device with remote controls or
personal computers.
