  • Page 18 als. To ensure good radiation of unit heat resulting during operation, air cir- culation must not be impeded. Care of the accessories To protect the accessories from premature wear, the following instructions must be observed: • Do not clean and store forceps with insulated branches together with other hard or pointy instruments, since the insulation may become damaged in this way.

  • Page 19: General Information

    Instructions for the use of high- frequency surgical equipment General information The patient must not come into contact with metal parts that are grounded or have a substantial capacity at ground (e.g. operating table, brackets, etc.). Use of antistatic cloths is recommended for this purpose.
  • Page 20 flammable liquids will collect beneath the patient or in bodily depressions such as the navel or bodily cavities such as the vagina. Liquid that has collected in these locations should be wiped away before using the unit. Warning should be given of the danger of ignition of endogenous gases.
  • Page 21 The unit has not been tested for defibrilation resistance. It is therefore es- sential that no DIACAPSUTOM applied parts be in contact to the patient during defibrilation. CHAPTER 4: INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USE OF HIGH-FREQUENCY SURGICAL EQUIPMENT...

    Cleaning, disinfection, sterilization Unit • Clean and disinfect the unit with a spray or wipe-down disinfection. Observe the instructions from the disinfectant manufacturer. • Sterilization of the unit is not possible. WARNING! If cleaning or disinfection of the unit with flammable or explosive agents is unavoidable, they must have completely evaporated from the unit before switching on.
  • Page 36 CAUTION! Aldehydic preparations are better suited for disinfection of electrode han- dles than phenolic agents, since they are less aggressive toward the plastic used. CAUTION! To prevent premature wear, make absolutely certain to observe the instruc- tions from the disinfectant manufacturer regarding soaking time and the concentration of agents used.

  • Page 37: Visual And Acoustic Error Messages

    Visual and acoustic error messages The unit’s microprocessor control systems constantly measure and com- pare all necessary parameters during activation. In this way, the unit func- tions and the generator function are always monitored. If an error is recog- nized, an acoustic warning signal sounds, the HF generator is switched off, and an error message appears on the display.
