Gima PARKER Instructions De Fonctionnement Et Entretien page 8

Before being used, thoroughly check the product. The same operation shall be carried out after cleaning.
-Check that the connection between the head and the handle is perfect and that the rheostat correctly
works.
-If the light is intermittent or in case it does not turn on, check the bulb, the batteries and the electric
contacts.
In case the bulb stops working, it is possible to replace it with original spare parts (cod. 31449).
To replace the bulb, it is necessary to take the speculum out, counter-clockwise turn the bulb and screw
the new one down (see picture). It is advisable to use only original bulbs.
Before removing the bulb, make sure that the instrument has been off for some minutes;
otherwise you run the risk of being burnt
-Check that the glass is clean; on the contrary it shall be removed. To do this counter-clockwise rotate
it and at the same time pull it towards you.
After cleaning, reintroduce the glass into its seat making the groove match with the small pivot and
clockwise rotating it (see picture).
-It is advisable to always have new bulbs and batteries at disposal for the maximum light.
-The otoscope head and handle can be cleaned with a cloth soaked with disinfectant, however they
cannot be dipped into liquids.
-The speculum can be sterilized in boiling water or in autoclave, in this case the temperature shall not
be over 121×; alternatively cold disinfectants can be used with the same concentration used to sterilize
medical instruments.
The product has been conceived to last forever; it is resistant to most part of chemicals except for
methyl ethyl ketones (M.E.K.), diluents and nail polish removers. All internal parts are brass and
stainless steel plated preventing rusting. If the lamp is exposed to humidity remove the batteries,
thoroughly dry to avoid short-circuits.
