Dangers, warnings, and cautions
Follow the dangers, warnings, and cautions given below when handling the light source. This
information is to be supplemented by the dangers, warnings, and cautions given in each chapter.
• Strictly observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may place the patient
and medical personnel in danger of an electric shock.
− When the light source is used to examine a patient, do not allow metal parts of
the endoscope or its accessories to touch metal parts of other system
components. Such contact may cause unintended current flow to the patient.
− If fluids are spilled on or into the light source, stop operation of the light source
immediately and contact Olympus.
− Do not prepare, inspect, or use the light source with wet hands.
• Never install and operate the light source in the following locations. An explosion or
fire may result because this video system center is not explosion-proof.
− The concentration of oxygen is high.
− Oxidizing agents (such as nitrous oxide (N
2
O)) are present in the atmosphere.
− Flammable anesthetics are present in the atmosphere.
− Flammable liquids are nearby.
• In case of light source failure or malfunction, always keep another light source in
the room ready for use.
• Never insert anything into the ventilation grills of the light source. It can cause an
electric shock.
• Do not look directly into the distal end of the endoscope, the distal end of the light
guide cable, or the output socket of the light source when they are emitting light.
The intense light may cause eye injury.
• Do not touch the distal end of the endoscope connector of the endoscope, distal
end of the light guide connector of the endoscope, distal end of the light guide
cable, or output socket of the light source immediately after disconnecting it from
the light source because they are extremely hot. Operator or patient injury can
result.
