DermLite DL1 is a mobile device-compatible dermatoscope
designed to view skin lesions with high magnification and clarity.
Four LEDs provide bright, even illumination, and a cross-po-
larized spacer provides a glare-free image by cancelling the
reflected light from the skin. A high quality, three-element lens
configuration, designed to provide excellent results with leading
mobile devices, offers superb color correction and reduced
image distortion for images rich in surface detail.
Your DL1 is equipped with a magnetic adapter called Magneti-
Connect® Clamp ("MCC"), designed for attaching DL1 to most
smartphones and tablets. To attach MCC, position the clamp
(MC) over the main camera, then secure it by tightening the
knob (KN). Attach the threaded magnetic ring and place DL1
on it.
With its cross-polarized Spacer (B) and glass contact plate (E)
installed, place DL1's contact plate directly on the skin. Applying
an immersion fluid onto the skin may improve the image. Push
the power button (C) to activate the light; push it again to turn it
off. To conserve power, your DL1 is designed to automatically
turn off after 2 minutes.
Glass Contact Plate
The unit's glass contact plate (E) may be removed for cleaning
or non-contact imaging by rotating the bayonet ring (D) count-
er-clockwise. Handle the glass faceplate with great care.

Cleaning
The exterior of your device, except the optical parts, may be
wiped clean with isopropyl alcohol (70% vol.) prior to use on a
patient. The lens should be treated as high-quality photographic
equipment and should be cleaned with standard lens cleaning
equipment and protected from harmful chemicals. Do not use
abrasive material on any part of the equipment or immerse the
device in liquid. Do not autoclave.
Battery and Charging
CAUTION: This device uses a special 3.7V 180mAh lithium ion
battery, which can only be purchased from 3Gen or from an
authorized 3Gen dealer. Do not under any circumstances use
another battery other than the one designed for this unit.
Prior to using the DL1, connect the wider connector of the

port (e.g. of a laptop, desktop computer, or Apple charger) and
the other end to the DL1 Micro USB charging port (CP). The
charging indicator (G) will illuminate red to indicate that the DL1
is being charged. When fully charged, the indicator turns green
and the device will allow up to an hour of continuous operation.
If less than 25% battery life remains, the indicator blinks.
