2 UI-20002 6/2002
WARNING: possible explosion hazard. Do not use in the presence of
flammable anesthetics. To ensure patient and operator safety, read
and understand this manual before using the Insight Instruments Light
Source.
Do not remove cover. Electrical shock hazard due to high internal
voltage. There are no user serviceable parts inside except for the lamp
and fuse, which are accessible through the bottom and back cover
panels. Refer all service to Insight Instruments.
Replace fuses as marked. See Fuse Replacement Section, page 7.
The high intensity light at the front of the light source and at the tip of
the Fiber Optic Bundle may give rise to high temperatures and bright
light.
To minimize the risk of injury, avoid direct viewing or contact with
sensitive tissues.
Do not use for neonate transillumination. Erythema may result.
To prevent temporary blinding, always plug the fiber optic bundle into
the Insight Instruments Light Source before turning the power ON.
Total system risk current — including the patient applied instrument —
should not exceed 100 microamps. An isolation transformer is
required if total system risk current exceeds 100 microamps when
accessories are interconnected.
Do not sterilize the Insight Instruments Light Source. Refer to
Cleaning section for cleaning instructions.
Do not switch the Insight Instruments Light Source ON and OFF in
rapid succession. Doing so will dramatically shorten lamp life. Allow
lamp to cool down 10 to 15 seconds between uses.
