Operating Voltage; Assumption Of Impaired Safety - Ivoclar Vivadent bluephase Mode D'emploi

Operating voltage

Before switching on, make sure that
a) the voltage indicated on the rating plate complies with
the local power supply.
b) the unit has acquired the ambient temperature.
If the battery or power pack are used separately, e.g. dur-
ing start-up or Click & Cure corded operation, contact
with patients or third parties must be prevented. Do not
touch the exposed contacts of the battery or connection
plug (power pack).

Assumption of impaired safety

If it has to be assumed that safe operation is no longer
possible, the power must be disconnected and the bat-
tery removed to avoid accidental operation. This may be
the case, for example, if the apparatus is visibly damaged
or no longer works correctly. A 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 prevent-
ed. Prolonged exposure to the light is unpleasant for the
eyes and may result in injury. Therefore, using the sup-
plied 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
and wear protective goggles (orange) that absorb light
below 500 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 peri-
od). Always store batteries charged. The storage period
must not exceed 6 months. May explode if disposed of in
fire.
Heat development
As it is the case with all high-performance lights, the
high light intensity results in a certain heat development.
Prolonged exposure of areas near the pulp and soft tis-
sues may result in irreversible or reversible damage.
Therefore, the recommended curing times have to be
observed. Uninterrupted curing times of more than 20
seconds on the same tooth surface, as well as direct con-
tact with the gingiva, oral mucous membrane, or skin,
have to be prevented. If required, polymerize indirect
restorations at intermitting intervals of 20 seconds each
or use external cooling with an air stream.
