Set-up And Operation

After a 15-second warm-up period, the light output will stabilize at its normal
intensity. Plug in the fiber optic bundle to stabilize light output.

1. Plug the Curon Medical Light Source into a hospital-grade receptacle.

2. Turn the light-intensity control knob to its minimum position. Plug the fiber optic

bundle into the illuminator port and connect the opposite end to the instrument.

3. Turn the power switch to the on position. The lamp will take 15 seconds to

complete its warm-up cycle.

4. Set light intensity to desired level.

5. Turn unit off when not in use.

NOTE: Do not restart lamp immediately after turning off. The lamp may fail to start.
If this occurs, turn the power switch off and wait 15 seconds before restarting the
Curon Medical Light Source.

CAUTION: Verify that the supply voltage matches the voltage range indicated
on the rear of the Curon Medical Light Source.

To prevent temporary blinding, turn power on only after the fiber optic bundle
is plugged in and the intensity control knob is set to the minimum position.

The fiber optic bundle port is hot when fiber optic bundle is removed.
