Dangers, warnings and cautions

Follow the dangers, warnings and cautions described below when handling this
instrument. This information is supplemented by the dangers, warnings and
cautions described in each chapter.
S Any applied part except “TYPE CF APPLIED PART” must

never be applied directly to the heart and must not be used
in procedures involving cardiac observation or surgery.
Leakage current from any applied part except “TYPE CF
APPLIED PART” may be dangerous and cause ventricular
fibrillation or otherwise seriously affect the cardiac function
of the patient. Accordingly, always adhere to the following:
– Never apply an endoscope connected to any applied part
except a “TYPE CF APPLIED PART” to the heart or any
area near the heart.
– Never allow an accessory or another endoscope, which
is in contact with the heart (or an area near the heart) to
contact an endoscope connected to any applied part
except a “TYPE CF APPLIED PART”.

– For cardiac applications, use only instruments bearing

the words “TYPE CF APPLIED PART” or the “ ” mark.
Refer to the instruction manual of the camera head or
light guide cable for system configuration requirements.
S Strictly observe the following precautions. Failure to do so
may place the patient and/or medical personnel in danger of
an electrical shock.
– When using this equipment to examine a patient, make
sure that the metal parts of the endoscope and
accessories do not come in contact with metal in the
facility or in other system components. Metal-to-metal
contact can create an electrical connection and
unintentionally conduct current to the patient (leakage
current, for example).
– Keep liquids away from all electrical equipment. If spilled
fluids enter the unit, stop operation of the equipment at
once and contact Olympus.
– Do not prepare, inspect or use this instrument with wet
hands.
S Never use the light source in the presence of flammable
substances or in an environment with a high concentration
of oxygen, and keep all flammable gases and liquids away
from the light source while it is being used. Explosion or fire
may result because the instrument is not designed to be
explosion-proof.

S Although the illumination light emitted from the endoscope’s

distal end is required for endoscopic observation and
treatment, it may also cause alteration of living tissues such
as protein denaturation of liver tissue and perforation of the
intestines by inappropriate using.
Observe the following warnings on the illumination.
– Always set the minimum required brightness.
The brightness of the image on a video monitor may
differ from actual brightness at the distal end of
endoscope.
Especially, operating the electrical shutter function of a
video system, pay attention to the brightness level setting
of this instrument. When this instrument is used with a
video system compatible with the automatic brightness
control function, be sure to use the function of this
instrument. The automatic brightness control function can
keep the illumination light properly. Refer to the
instruction manual of the video system for details.
– Do not continue observation in proximity to tissue or keep
the distal end of the endoscope in contact with a living
tissue for a long time.
– When discontinuing the use of the endoscope, be sure to
turn this instrument OFF or activate the light shield
function (standby mode) so that the endoscope does not
irradiate unnecessary light.
S If the endoscopic image dims during use, this may be a sign
that blood or mucus is adhered to the light guide on the
distal end of endoscope. Carefully withdraw the endoscope
from patient and remove the blood or mucus in order to
obtain optimum illumination and to ensure the safety of
examination. If you continue to use the endoscope in such a
condition, the distal end temperature may rise and cause
mucosa burns. It may also cause patient and/or operator
injury.
S Do not touch the light guide connector of the endoscope or
the output connector of the light source immediately after
removing it from this instrument because they are extremely
hot. Operator or patient injury can result.
S Do not look directly into the distal end of the endoscope or
the output connector of the light source while the light
source is on. The intense light may harm your eyes.

S Xenon light sources produce significant heat due to the high

intensity light required for endoscopic procedures. If the
disconnected end of the light guide cable or the distal end of
an endoscope touches operating room drapes or other
flammable materials, fire can result.
– Never place the unattached end of an illuminated light
guide cable on an operating room drape or other
flammable material.
– Never allow the distal end of an illuminated endoscope to
come in contact with operating room drapes or other
flammable material.
S Be sure to prepare another light source to avoid that the
examination must be interrupted due to equipment failure or
malfunction.
S This product may interfere with other medical electronic
equipment used in combination with it. Before use, fully
confirm the compatibility of this instrument with all
equipment to be used with it.
S Do not use this product in any place where it may be subject
to strong electromagnetic radiation (for example, in the
vicinity of a microwave therapeutic device, MRI, wireless
set, short-wave therapeutic device, cellular/portable phone,
etc.). This may impair the performance of the product.
S Do not remove the cover of the light source. Electrical shock

can occur.
S Do not use a pointed or hard object to press the switches on
the front panel of the instrument. This may break the
switches.
S To avoid damaging electrical contacts and/or causing a
malfunction, do not apply excessive force to any connector.

As defined by the international safety standard

(IEC60601-1), medical electrical equipment is classified into
the following types: Type CF (the instrument can safely be
applied to any part of the body, including the heart), and
Type B/BF (the instrument can safely be applied to any
organ except the heart). The part of the body to which a
videoscope or electrosurgical accessory can safely be
applied depends on the classification of the equipment to
which the instruments are connected. Before beginning the
procedure, review the current leakage classification type of
each instrument that you will use for the procedure.
Classification types are clearly specified on the instruments
and in the instruments’ instruction manuals.

6.1 When to replace the lamp

Although the lamp brightness may differ depending on the part being observed,
the lamp should be replaced before its life expires if it appears darker than
when it was first used.
Replacement of the main lamp (xenon)
Store the hexagon wrench securely on the back side of the

lamp access cover. If the wrench falls inside the light source,
immediately turn the light source OFF, disconnect the power
cord and contact Olympus. If the light source is used while
the wrench is detached inside it, electric shock can result.
When replacing the lamp, use a clean lint-free cloth to wipe

off residual heat compound from the heat sink. If the heat
compound is not wiped off completely, the heat radiation
efficiency will be impaired and the lamp life will be
significantly shortened.
– Match the lamp and heat sink pin positions, then bolt
them together tightly.
– Install the heat sink securely in the light source and
tighten the heat sink knobs firmly.
To replace the main lamp, follow the procedure below. Use xenon lamp

Chapter 7 Care, Storage and Disposal
7.1 Care
S Use only a dry lint-free cloth to clean the power switch. Do

not moisten the lint-free cloth; the switch could fail or electric
shock may result.
S After cleaning the light source, dry it thoroughly before use.
If it is used while still wet, there is the risk of an electrical
shock.
S When cleaning the light source, always wear personal
protective equipment, such as eye wear, a face mask,
moisture-resistant clothing and chemical-resistant gloves
that fit properly and are long enough so that your skin is not
exposed. Blood, mucous and other potentially infectious
material adhering to the light source could pose an infection
control risk.
S Do not clean the output connector, other connectors or the

AC inlet. Cleaning them can deform or corrode the contacts
and/or cause equipment damage.
S Do not autoclave or gas sterilize the light source. Equipment
damage will occur.
S Do not wipe the outside surface of the light source with an
abrasive material. The surface of the unit will be scratched.
If the light source becomes soiled, perform the following cleaning procedure
immediately after use. If cleaning is delayed, organic debris will solidify and it
may be difficult to effectively clean the light source. The equipment should be
cleaned routinely.
1. Turn the light source OFF and disconnect the power cord.
2. Should the equipment become soiled with blood or other potentially
infectious materials, first wipe off all gross debris using a soft, lint-free
cloth moistened with detergent solution.

3. Wipe the outside of the unit using a soft, lint-free cloth moistened with 70%
ethyl or isopropyl alcohol to remove dust, dirt, etc.
4. Dry the light source with a clean, lint-free cloth.
7.2 Storage
Do not store the light source, lamp(s) or power cord in any

of the locations listed below. Damage to the equipment may
result:
– Places exposed to high temperatures, high humidity, or
liquids.
– Places exposed to direct sunlight, X-rays, radioactivity or
strong electromagnetic radiation (e.g., near microwave or
short-wave medical treatment equipment, MRI or radio
equipment).
1. Turn the light source OFF and disconnect the power cord.
2. Disconnect all ancillary equipment from the light source.
3. Make sure that the cords are not excessively bent or coiled during storage,
and do not place anything on top of the cords.
4. Do not allow the light source to be subjected to blows or impacts during

storage. Handle it carefully.
5. Store the unit on a stable, horizontal surface in a clean, dry place.
7.3 Disposal
When disposing of this product, or any of its components, follow all applicable
national and local laws and guidelines.
