Safety Precautions

  1. This product is intended for use in hospitals and dental clinics only. The use of the product must comply with the requirements of the relevant operating specifications and relevant regulations of the medical department. Users must be professionally  trained and qualified as dentists or technicians. De not look directly into the light output. Patient, clinician and assistants are always suggested wearing protectors (safety goggle, face shield…) to avoid crossing infection.

  2. The products are reusable:
    Prior to each use, place a new barrier sleeve over the curing light. The hygienic barrier sleeve is customs fitted to the curing light and keeps the surface of the curing light clean. The barrier sleeve helps prevent cross contamination, helps keep dental  composite material from adhering to the surface of the lens and curing light, and prevent discoloration and corrosion from cleaning solutions. The curing lights must be cleaned and sanitized with appropriate cleaning and/or sanitizing agents after each  patient. The sleeve is not equipped with the curing light. Please note that the sleeve must meet the requirements of relevant medical device regulation and it’s disposable.

  3. During the operation, the light should be aimed straightly at the composite resin to ensure the effect of solidification.

  4. Please use the original light hood and follow the right installation ways to avoid the damage of blue light to the eyes.

  5. Please do not use other than the specified voltage to recharge the battery. Only the original charging base, adapter and Lithium battery could be used, because other brand charging, adapter and Lithium battery are likely to damage the circuit.

  6. Please recharge the battery at least 4 hours before first time usage. It’s forbidden to connect the charger to the base for long time while not charging and it’s not allowed to use the curing light while charging.

  7. It is forbidden to touch the charging connector with metal or other conductor, to avoidingdamage the circuit of charge or the battery.

  8. Please recharge the battery in cool and ventilated room. Please press the main unit to the buckle of charging base, in order to avoid the poor connection.

  9. It is forbidden to self-taking-apart the battery, in order not to result in short-circuit or leakage.

  10.  It is forbidden to extrude, shake or rock the battery. The Lithiurn battery is forbidden to be in short-circuiting situation and it is forbidden to put the battery with metal or other conductors.

  11. The instrument has electromagnetic interference. Do not use it around electronic surgery, and use the instrument with caution in an environment with strong electromagnetic interference.

  12. This product does not contain toxic or hazardous substances and it is discarded in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations on waste medical devices. Please deal with the replaced battery according te national regulations

  13. As a professional manufacturer of medical instruments, we are only responsible for the safety on the following conditions:

  • The maintenance, repair and modification are made by the manufacturer or the authorized dealer.
  • The changed components are original of our company and operated correctly according to instruction manual.

Product contraindications:
