WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

• ADC Diagnostix instruments have been manufactured to the highest global standards and are subjected to rigorous quality control.
• Read these instructions for use carefully before putting the unit into operation and keep them in a safe place.
• If you should have any questions, call our toll-free number or visit our website. Our address can be found on the last page of this booklet.
• Please note that all instruments described in these instructions for use are only to be used by suitably trained personnel.
• The performance and efficiency of these instruments are only guaranteed when genuine ADC parts and accessories are used.
• Warning: Do not use batteries, electrical cords, or replacement parts other than those included with this product or supplied by the manufacturer.
• Warning: Because prolonged intense light exposure can damage the retina, the use of the device for ocular examination should not be unnecessarily prolonged, and the brightness setting should not exceed what is needed to provide clear visualization of the target structures. This device should be used with filters that eliminate UV radiation (<400 nm) and, whenever possible, filters that eliminate short-wavelength blue light (<420 nm).
• The retinal exposure dose for a photochemical hazard is a product of the radiance and the exposure time. If the value of radiance were reduced in half, twice the time would be needed to reach the maximum exposure limit.
• While no acute optical radiation hazards have been identified for direct or indirect ophthalmoscopes, it is recommended that the intensity of light directed into the patient’s eye be limited to the minimum level necessary for diagnosis. Infants, aphakes, and persons with diseased eyes will be at greater risk. The risk may also be increased if the person being examined has had any exposure with the same instrument or any other ophthalmic instrument using a visible light source during the previous 24 hours. This will apply particularly if the eye has been exposed to retinal photography.
• Warning: Otoscope MUST be used with included disposable specula.
• Caution: Not made with natural rubber latex.
• Attention: There may be a risk of ignition when the instrument is used in the presence of flammable or combustible gases. Work in areas with good ventilation.
• Attention: Make sure to charge wall plug-in handles for at least 12 hours before first use and for all subsequent charges to ensure optimal capacity and battery life.
• Never attempt to take the instrument apart! There is a danger of life-threatening electrical shock. Unplug the instrument before cleaning or when disinfecting.
• NOTE: To obtain the greatest performance from your instrument, it is recommended that the instrument be used within a temperature range of 50°F to 104°F (10°C to 40°C), with a 10-95% relative humidity.

BATTERY HANDLES AND INITIAL USE

Function

The ADC battery handles described in these instructions supply the instrument heads with power (the lamps are contained in their respective instrument heads).

Battery Handle Options

All the instrument heads described in these instructions fit on the following battery handles and can therefore be individually combined.
For Otoscopes, Ophthalmoscopes, Dermascope, Throat Illuminator, Power Handles

Inserting, Removing, and Charging Batteries

Screw off the battery cap on the lower part of the handle. Depending on which handle you have purchased and for what voltage, insert the rechargeable battery into the casing such that the positive end points toward the top of the handle.
There is also an arrow next to the plus symbol on the rechargeable battery that shows you the direction to insert into the handle. Screw the battery cap onto the handle to secure.

Plug-in Rechargeable Handles

Prior to initial use, charge the plug-in handle for up to 24 hours in the mains socket. To charge, remove top portion by unscrewing counter-clockwise to reveal two-prong plug. Plug into electrical outlet.

Standard Rechargeable Handles

To charge standard rechargeable handles, desk charger base (# 5500) is required. Follow Instructions for Use supplied with desk charger.

Caution:

• If you do not plan to use the device for a long time, or if you travel with it, remove the rechargeable batteries from the handle.
• New batteries should be inserted once the light intensity of the instrument becomes weaker, even on a full charge.
• To obtain the best possible light output we recommend always fitting high- quality batteries.
• If you suspect that liquid or moisture could have entered the handle, do not charge under any circumstances. This could lead to a life-threatening electric shock, especially in the case of plug-in handles.
• To extend the service life of the battery, the battery should only be charged once the light intensity of the instrument has become weaker.
• Plug-in handle should be charged overnight (12 hours) to ensure uninterrupted power supply.

NOTE for #5460: 3.5V for charging in a 120V or 230V wall socket. When using the new 5460BAT, care must be taken to ensure that no insulation is affixed to the spring of the battery-handle cap. If the old 5460BAT is used, an insulation must be affixed to the spring to avoid short circuit.

Waste Disposal
Please note that rechargeable batteries must be disposed of as special waste. You can obtain the relevant information from your local authority or from your local environmental agency.

Fitting Instrument Heads

Fit the required instrument head on the receptacle on the upper part of the handle such that the two recesses of the lower part of the instrument head fit on the two protruding guide studs on the battery handle. Press the instrument head lightly on to the battery handle and twist the handle clockwise until securely locked. The head is removed by reversing the process.

Locking Instrument Head

Instrument heads are equipped with a security feature. Use enclosed hex key to lock head onto power handle. To secure, insert hex key into slot on head and tighten by turning clockwise. Keep the hex key in a convenient place in case the head must be removed for cleaning or service.
NOTE: Locking the head is recommended on wall-mounted systems only.

Adjusting the Light Intensity

With the ADC AdtronicTM electronic rheostat, it is possible to modulate the light intensity. Smoothly control the applied power by holding the easy-grip dial and turning either clockwise or counter-clockwise, varying the light intensity stronger or weaker.
ATTENTION: At every switch-on of the battery handle the light intensity is at 100%. An automatic safety switches the light off after 180 seconds.
