Safety Requirements Before And During Use - Mectron PIEZOSURGERY WHITE Mode D'emploi Et D'entretien

5.3 Safety Requirements Before and During Use
WARNING: Before starting to operate
with the device, make sure that you have
stock material (handpiece, inserts, wrenches)
available to use in case the device stops due
to a fault or of inconveniences.
CAUTION: Contraindication. Do not
perform treatments on prosthetic artifacts
made of metal or ceramics. The ultrasonic
vibrations could lead to the de-cementing of
the artifacts.
WARNING: Contraindications. Do not
use the Piezosurgery® touch on patients
who carry heart stimulators (Pace-makers)
or other implantable electronic devices. This
precaution also applies to the operator.
WARNING: Checking device status
before the treatment. Always check that
there is no water underneath the device.
Before every treatment, always check that
the device works perfectly and that the
accessories are efficient. In case you uncover
operating abnormalities, do not perform the
treatment. Contact an Authorized Mectron
Service Center if the abnormalities concern
the device.
CAUTION: The handpiece, because of its
shape, can roll. The handpiece must always
be placed on its holder when not in use.
CAUTION: FLUSH function. After the
device is used with aggressive and non-
aggressive solutions, it is necessary to
perform a cleaning cycle on the tubes and
the handpiece with the FLUSH function (see
Cleaning and Sterilization Manual). If the
tubes are not cleaned, the crystallization of
the salts may seriously damage the device.
CAUTION: Contraindications. Allow
reusable, autoclavable items (the handpiece,
the inserts, the torque wrench, and any other
accessory that can be sterilized ) to gradually
return to room temperature after steam
sterilization and prior to usage. The cooling
process must not be accelerated.
WARNING: Infections control. First
use: All new and repaired accessories are
supplied in NON STERILE conditions. Before
use, and after each treatment, they must be
cleaned and sterilised in strict compliance
with the instructions given in the Cleaning
and Sterilization Manual. Subsequent uses:
After every treatment, clean and sterilize all
the reusable parts and accessories, following
the instructions provided in the Cleaning and
Sterilization Manual.
CAUTION: The electrical contacts inside
the cord connector must be dry. Before
connecting the handpiece to the device,
make sure that the electrical contacts of the
connector are perfectly dry, especially after
the sterilization cycle in autoclave. If need be,
dry the contacts by blowing compressed air
onto them.
CAUTION: FLUSH function. The FLUSH
function must be used after every treatment,
before starting the cleaning and sterilization
procedures.
WARNING: To ensure that the handpiece
cools down, always activate it with the
irrigation circuit correctly installed and filled.
To fill the irrigation circuit, always use the
PUMP function
WARNING: Treatments that require
irrigation. Always check operation of the
irrigation before and during use. Make sure
the fluid outflows from the insert.
Do not use the device if the irrigation does
not work or if the pump is defective.
WARNING: Only use original Mectron
inserts, accessories, and spare parts.
WARNING: Use of non-original
Mectron inserts: this use entails finite
damage to the handpiece threading, thus
compromising correct operation and risking
to cause harm to the patient.
