Coltene CanalPro CL Mode D'emploi page 17

- Use the specified batteries for this product. Never use any other batteries than those that Coltène/
Whaledent specifies.
- This product is designed specifically for use with rechargeable batteries. Do not use manganese or al-
kaline batteries. Using and charging these by error may cause a fluid leak or explosion.
- Always replace both batteries with the same type at the same time. Using batteries of different-types
or an exhausted battery with a fully charged one may cause a fluid leak or explosion.
- This product is Medical Electrical equipment. EMC (Electromagnetic compatibility) is described in the
accompanying documentation.
- Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect Medical Electrical equipment. Do not
use RF equipment outskirts for the product.
- If the handpiece has not been used for long period of time, check it before use to perform correctly.
- Do not handle the power cord with wet hands. Failure to do so may result in an electric shock.
- Do not spill water or a chemical solution onto or into the motor handpiece or battery charger. Failure
to do so may result in fire or electric shock due to a short-circuit or breakage due to rust formation.
- Do not disassemble or alter the motor handpiece.
- Do not drop the motor handpiece or battery charger. Place the battery charger on a flat and stable
surface.
- Should the battery fluid leak and get into your eyes, immediately wash eyes thoroughly with clean wa-
ter and see your doctor. Failure to do so may result in loss of sight.
- Should the battery fluid leak and adhere to skin or clothing, immediately wash the exposed skin thor-
oughly with clean water and completely wash away the fluid. Failure to do so may result in skin irrita-
tion.
- If you notice a battery fluid leak within the motor handpiece, deformation of the motor handpiece cas-
ing or partial discoloring, immediately stop use and contact your dealer.
- If you will not use the product for a long period of time, remove the batteries to avoid a fluid leak.
- Do not charge the handpiece without battery.
- Be careful not to drop conductive parts such as wires and safety pins into the charging terminal area
of the battery charger.
- To charge the motor handpiece, only use a dedicated genuine Coltène/Whaledent charger. Never
charge this handpiece with a charger other than the genuine Coltène/Whaledent charger. When in-
serting the motor handpiece into the charger, check that the alarm sounds and the LED indicate
charging (animation for remaining battery capacity). Unless charging is indicated, this function is not
performed and burns may result by heat generation or liquid leakage may result, therefore, stop use
and contact your dealer.
- The motor handpiece has an electronic circuit (TORQUE LIMITER Function) to prevent files from brea-
king; however, files may still break due to metal fatigue if the torque is conditioned to be higher.

DANGER
WARNING
- Exercise sufficient care in using the product by giving patient safety first priority.
- The product is to be used for dental treatment only by qualified personnel.
- Use commercially available batteries as specified by Coltène/Whaledent. Read the instruction manual in-
cluded by the battery manufacturer thoroughly before use.
- Do not use a bent, damaged, deformed or non-ISO-conforming file. Using such a file may result in personal
injury due to its sudden breakage or flying off during rotation.
- Do not use or leave the product in a high-temperature environment such as under strong direct sunlight,
in a car under a blazing sun, by a fire or near a stove.
- Check the product before use, pay attention to looseness, vibration, noise and temperature (heat genera-
tion). If any abnormal condition is found even slightly at that time, immediately stop use and contact your
dealer.
- Always clean the shank of the file to be installed. Allowing dirt to enter the chuck could cause loss of con-
centricity and deterioration of chucking force.
- Before changing the head or file, turn off the power of the motor handpiece. Changing with the power on
may cause unintended rotation by accidental activation of the ON/OFF switch.
- When inserting the motor handpiece into the battery charger, position the handpiece correctly. Pushing it
into the charger forcibly in the incorrect orientation may cause damage.
- Do not lubricate the motor handpiece. Only lubricate the head and shank.
- Do not heat sterilize the motor handpiece. Do not autoclave the motor handpiece.
- If you are using corrosive or harsh solutions please clean the motor handpiece etc., immediately after use.
Failure to quickly clean the motor handpiece etc., can result in damage to the equipment or color changes
of the outer casing.
- Do not reverse positive (+) and negative (-) when fitting the batteries.
- Do not throw the batteries into fire as the batteries will rupture, resulting in an accident.
- This equipment is for indoor use only.
- Observe the allowable rotation speed which the file manufacturer specifies for use.
- The motor handpiece is designed for commercially available AAA nickel metal hydride batteries (recharge-
able). Ni-Cad batteries can also be used, but the charging time and operating time become significantly
shorter since the charging current differs.
- The motor handpiece consumes electricity very slightly even when the power is off. In addition, fully-
charged rechargeable batteries, in general, discharge gradually over time even though it is not used. It is
recommended to recharge the batteries just before use.
- When the motor handpiece automatically stops by detecting a low battery voltage, leaving it for a while
and turning on the power again may not detect the low voltage immediately. This is not a failure, but due
to battery characteristics. Since the voltage drop does not coincide with the remaining battery capacity,
consider it only as a yardstick.
- Recharge rechargeable batteries after they deplete as much as possible. Repeating short time use and sub-
sequent recharging may shorten their operating time due to a "memory effect. " Batteries may recover from
the memory effect after fully discharging and then fully charging and repeating this procedure a few
times.
- Eventually completely discharged batteries cannot be charged and need to be replace with new ones.
- User shall be responsible for operation, maintenance and operation.
