Ivoclar Vivadent Bluephase 20i - Manual (Page 5)

Assumption of impaired safety
If it is assumed that safe operation is no longer possible,
the power must be disconnected and the battery removed
to avoid accidental operation. This may be the case, for
example, if the apparatus is visibly damaged or no longer
works correctly. Complete disconnection from the power
supply is only ensured when the power cord is disconnected
from the power source.
Eye protection
Direct or indirect exposure of the eyes must be prevented.
Prolonged exposure to the light is unpleasant to the eyes
and may result in injury. Therefore, using the supplied anti-
glare cones is recommended. Individuals who are generally
sensitive to light, who take photosensitizing drugs, have
undergone eye surgery, or people who work with the
apparatus or in its vicinity for long periods of time should
not be exposed to the light of this device. Therefore, they
should wear protective goggles (orange) that absorb light
below 515 nm.
Battery
Caution: Use only original spare parts, particularly Ivoclar
Vivadent batteries and charging bases. Do not short circuit
battery. Do not store at temperatures above 40 °C / 104 °F
(or 60 °C / 140 °F for a short period). Always store batter-
ies charged. The storage period must not exceed 6 months.
May explode if disposed of in fire.
Please note that the lithium polymer battery may react with
explosion, fire, and smoke development in case of inappro-
priate handling and mechanical damage. Damaged lithium
polymer batteries must no longer be used.
The electrolytes and electrolyte fumes released during exlo-
sion, fire, and smoke development are toxic and corrosive.
In case of contact with the eyes and skin, immediately rinse
with copious amounts of water. Avoid the inhalation of the
fumes. See a physician immediately in case of indisposition.
Heat development (burn hazard)
As it is the case with all high-performance lights, the high
light intensity results in a certain heat development. Pro-
longed exposure of areas near the pulp and soft tissues
may result in irreversible or reversible damage. Therefore,
this high-performance curing light must only be operated by
trained professionals.
The recommended curing times have to be observed.
Uninterrupted curing times of more than 5 seconds in the
Turbo-Program on the same tooth surface, as well as direct
contact with the gingiva, oral mucous membrane or skin
have to be prevented. If required, polymerize in intermittent
intervals of at most 5 seconds each. Prevent heat accumu-
lation when polymerizing with a rubber dam in place. If
irradiation of soft tissue cannot be avoided, operate with
reduced light intensity (use Low Power program). Poly-
merize indirect restorations at intermittent intervals of
10 seconds in the High-Power program and 1x 5 seconds
each in the Turbo program or use external cooling with an
air stream.
The instructions regarding
curing programs and curing
times must be observed (see
Selecting the curing program
and the curing time). In
addition, the light emission
window must be placed dir-
ectly over the material to be cured at all times (e.g. by
holding it in place using a finger).
It is not recommended to use the High Power/Turbo
program for sensitive patients. In this case, operate with
reduced light intensity (use Low Power program).
