Dangers, warnings and notes
Follow the dangers, warnings and notes given below when handling this
instrument. This information is to be supplemented by the dangers, warnings,
cautions and notes given in each chapter.
• Strictly adhere to the following precautions. Failure to do so
may place the patient and medical personnel in danger of an
electric shock.
When this equipment is used to examine a patient, do not
allow the metal parts of the endoscope or its accessories
to touch metal parts of other system components. This
instrument is electrically connected to the metal parts of
other system components and such contact may cause
unintended current flow to the patient.
Keep liquids away from all electrical equipment. If liquid
enters the unit, stop the operation of the equipment
immediately and contact Olympus.
Do not prepare, inspect or use this equipment with wet
hands.
• Never use this instrument in the presence of flammable
substances or in an environment with a high concentration of
oxygen, and keep all flammable gases and liquids away from
this instrument while it is being used. Explosion or fire may
result because this instrument is not explosion-proof
construction.
• This instrument produces significant heat due to the high
intensity light required for endoscopic procedures. If the distal
end of an endoscope and/or the disconnected end of a light
guide cable touches operating room drapes or other
flammable materials, fire may result.
Never place the distal end of an illuminated endoscope or
light guide cable on an operating room drape or other
flammable material.
Never direct the light emitted from the endoscope and
light guide cable toward operating room drapes or other
flammable material.
Turn this instrument OFF whenever it is not used.
