1.3.2 Specific requirements on the products/components of a combination
. IMPORTANT!
Persons combining products to form a system are responsible for not impairing the system’s compliance with
the performance and safety requirements, and that the technical data and the intended use are adequately
fulfilled.
Electromagnetic interference or other types of interference occurring between this product and other products
can cause failures or malfunctions.
When selecting the system components ensure that they meet the requirements for the medical environment
they are used in, in particular IEC/ EN 60601--1--1. In case of doubt contact the manufacturer(s) of the system
components.
Do not touch connecting devices for electrical connections between the different components (such as signal
input and output connections for video signals, data exchange, control circuits, etc.) and the patient at the
same time.
. IMPORTANT!
Accessories such as light cables must not cause a change of the classification of the applied part and must
not have a conductive connection between the light connection socket and the cold light connector.

Guidance and manufacturer’s declaration -- electromagnetic immunity for products that are not life--supporting
The product is intended for use in the environment specified below. The user should assure that the product is used in such an environment.

level
REMARKS: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz the higher frequency range applies.
These guidelines may no apply in all situations, as the propagation of electromagnetic waves is affected by absorption and
reflexion from buildings, objects and people.
1 = The field strength of fixed transmitters (e.g. base stations for radio telephones, land mobile radios, amateur radio, radio broadcast and
TV broadcast, ...), cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the EMC environment due to fixed transmitters an
electromagnetic site survey should be conducted. If the measured field strength in the location in which the product is used exceeds
the applicable compliance level above, the product should be observed to verify normal operation.
If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be required, such as reorienting or relocating the product.
2 = Over the frequency range between 150 kHz and 80 MHz the field strength should be below 3 V/m.
The recommended separation distances between portable and mobile HF telecommunication devices and
devices which are not life--supporting
The product is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment with HF disturbances are controlled.
The user can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile
HF telecommunications equipment and the product.

For transmitters rated at a nominal output power not listed in the table above, the recommended separation distance (d) in meters (m) can
be determined using the applicable equation (observe frequency). P = nominal power of the transmitter in Watts (W).

WARNING!
The device is not protected against explosions.
Explosion hazard!
Do not operate this device in areas where there is a danger of explo-
sion.
CAUTION!
Device may fail due to automatic temperature cut- out.
Insufficient air supply can trigger the temperature protection curcuit
and shut down the device during use.
Devices with forced cooling (e.g. fan) should be kept at a minimum
distance of 15 cm from walls and the vent slots/louvers must not be
covered or closed at any time.
To prevent possible accumulation of heat in closed system trolleys,
place the devices in such a way that the heat can be dissipated
and/or create ventilation wholes.
. NOTE!
As a result of the intended use of the product, its degree of protection
against the ingression of liquids is IP 20.
To prevent liquid from being drawn into the ventilation system of the light
projector, do not place any products or items from which liquids can be
spilled above the projector.
. NOTE!
Check that the mains/line voltage is the same as the voltage specified on
the identification plate. Connect the device only with the supplied power
cable or a power cable meeting the same specifications.
CAUTION!
Danger of faults and malfunctions.
To guarantee the safety of the user, the patient and others use only
accessories and spare parts specified by the manufacturer of this
product.
Other accessories or spare parts can cause the emission of
increased electromagnetic radiation or reduced immunity against
interference.
. IMPORTANT!
Medical devices are subject to special precautions with regard to electro-
magnetic compatibility (EMC).
Make sure you observe the notes on EMC for installation and operation.
Medical electrical devices can be influenced by mobile HF communication
devices.
If it is necessary to stack the devices or place them next to each other
and HF interference is observed, make sure you observe the intended
use of the devices.
GA--A 206 7
3.2 Selecting the light connection socket
The light projector is provided with a selector wheel (3) having 4 connec-
tion sockets to also connect light cables of other manufacturers. Turn the
required light socket with the corresponding manufacturer’s code for the
light cable to the 9 o’clock position (C).
Manufacturer’s code
W = WOLF

S = STORZ
C O = OLYMPUS
A = ACMI
. IMPORTANT!
In combinations with a camera with auto shutter, the light projector should
not be operated at maximum intensity. Set the nominal value to medium
intensity. This will reduce thermal stress on the coupling points, i.e. the
light cable and the endoscope, and thus reduce the probability of damage
to a minimum.
The camera controls the brightness. An encreased nominal value should
only be selected if the light output of the projector due to aging of the
lamp or extreme light requirements really make a higher setting necces-
sary.

CAUTION!
Danger of dazzling.
Do not look into the open end of a connected light cable.
' Brightness can be continously adjusted with the knob (2) on the uni-
versal light cable socket.
. IMPORTANT!
After switching off wait at least three minutes to allow the projector to cool
down sufficiently before you switch on again. Repeated switching on and
off will reduce the service life of the xenon lamp considerably.

the light connector).
' Brightness is not automatically readjusted with changing object dis-
tances.
GA--A 206 11
5.4 Operation of the light projector
WARNING!
Fire hazard.
Do not place the light exit area of the light cable or the endoscope
on heat absorbing surfaces (such as dark drapes, etc.) as this may
lead to inadmissibly high temperatures or even ignition.
Switch off the light projector if you do not need it for some time.
CAUTION!
Accumulation of heat due to high light energy.
Insufficient distance between the light exit area of the light cable or
endoscope and tissue can cause coagulation of the tissue.
During endoscopy avoid direct contact between light exit area and
tissue.
CAUTION!
Danger of dazzling.
Do not look into the open end of the light cable when the light cable
is connected.
. NOTE!
If the xenon lamp does not ignite immediately, the ignition circuit will trig-
ger further attempts to ignite the lamp. If the xenon lamp still won’t ignite,
allow the device to cool down and repeat the procedure.
. IMPORTANT!
After switching off wait at least three minutes to allow the projector to cool
down sufficiently before you switch on again. Repeated switching on and
off will reduce the service life of the xenon lamp considerably.

fectant, alcohol or spirit.
Follow the disinfectant manufacturer’s instructions.
. IMPORTANT!
Make sure that no humidity enters the device. Do not use any cleaning or
scouring agents or solvents on the device!
