2.2 Health and safety

instructions

This unit has been designed
according to EN 61010-1 and
has been shipped from the
manufacturer in excellent condi-
tion as far as safety regulations
are concerned. To maintain this
condition and to assure risk-free
operation, the user must observe
the notes and warnings
contained in the Operating
Instructions.

– Do not place the unit in the

immediate vicinity of heaters
or other sources of heat.

– Place the apparatus on a fire-

proof table (observe local
regulations, e.g. distance to
combustible objects, etc.).

– Always keep the air vents at

the rear of the apparatus free
from obstruction.

– Make sure that no foreign

objects may enter the air
vents.

– Do not touch any parts that

become hot (lamp, heater)
during the operation of the
unit. There is a burn hazard.

– Clean unit only with a dry or

slightly moist cloth. Do not
use any solvents! Disconnect
power before cleaning.

– Use original packaging for

transportation purposes.

– The user must especially

become familiar with the
warnings and the operating
conditions to prevent injury to
personnel or damage to
materials. The manufacturer is
not responsible for damage
resulting from misuse or fai-
lure to observe the Operating
Instructions. Warranty claims
cannot be accepted in such
cases.

– Before switching on, make

sure that the voltage indicated
on the rating plate complies
with your local power supply.

– The power plug may only be

inserted into sockets with
protected contacts.

– Before calibration,

maintenance, repair, or
exchange of parts, the power
must be disconnected if the
unit is to be opened.

– If calibration, maintenance, or

repair has to be carried out
with the power connected
and the unit open, only
qualified personnel, who are
familiar with the risks and
dangers, may perform these
procedures.

– After maintenance, the

required safety tests (high
voltage resistance, protective
conductor test, etc.) have to
be carried out.

– It must be ensured that only

fuses of the indicated type
and rated current are used.

– If it is assumed that safe ope-

ration is no longer possible,
the power must be disconnec-
ted to avoid accidental opera-
tion. Safe operation is no lon-
ger possible if
– the unit is visibly damaged
– the unit does not work
– the unit has been stored

under unfavourable
conditions over an extended
period of time.

– Use only original spare parts.

– The temperature range for

faultless operation is +5 °C to
+40 °C (41–104 °F).

– If the unit has been stored at

very low temperatures or high
atmospheric humidity it has to
be dried or left to adjust to
the room temperature for
approx. 1 hour (do not
connect to power yet).

– Note: Do not work with

liquids near the unit. Should a
liquid accidentally enter the
unit, disconnect power and
consult Customer Service. Do
not operate the unit.

– The unit has been tested for

use at altitudes of up to
2000 m above sea level.

– The unit must be used

indoors.

– Operating the unit without a

dust filter or with a dirty one
influences temperature regula-
tion. Adequate tempering
according to Ivoclar Vivadent
standards is not assured with-
out a dust filter.

Warnings

– Any disruption of the protec-

tive conductor either inside or
outside the unit or any
loosening of the protective
conductor connection may
lead to danger for the user in
case of malfunction. Delibe-
rate interruptions are not
tolerated.

– Direct view into the light or

reflecting surfaces without a
filter is uncomfortable for the
eyes. Prolonged exposure may
lead to eye damage.
Therefore, we recommend
looking at the object only
through the tinted viewing
window of the unit. Protective
goggles absorbing light or
wavelengths below 500 nm
can also be used.

– This is especially applicable for

persons who work with the
unit or in its vicinity for
extended periods of time, or
for people who have under-
gone eye surgery.

– Persons who are generally

light-sensitive, or who take
medication against light-
sensitivity or photo-sensitivity
should not be exposed to the
light of the unit.

– Hot surface. There is a burn

hazard. Do not touch the
heater or the lamps when they
are hot.

– Do not use this unit to cook

food.

– The user is responsible for

cleaning and decontamination
measures, if hazardous
materials spill in the unit or
hazardous gases develop
during operation of the unit
(e.g. incorrect material).
In this case, the user must
contact the local Ivoclar
Vivadent Service Center.
Furthermore, the unit must no
longer be used.
