 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

. General Points
• The appliance must only be used for the purpose described in this
operating manual.
• Installation should only be carried out by trained technical person-
nel.
• The device must not be stored or operated outside the prescribed
ambient conditions (see section 7.1.5)
• If the device is brought from a cold environment into the opera-
ting environment, condensation may form on cold surfaces. Wait a
couple of hours until the device temperature has equalized and it is
dry, before switching the device on.
• Please carefully retain packing material for reuse in case of return
delivery or removal to another location.
• Please keep this manual near the appliance at all times, in a place
where it can be accessed easily by operating staff. Warranty claims
will only be considered if the instructions in the operating manual
have been followed as specified.
• The doctor or operator undertakes to give the patient those safe-
ty instructions that concern him/her, and to monitor for their compli-
ance.
• Do not use the device in areas where there is a risk of explosion.
Do not store volatile solvents (alcohol, petrol, etc.) or flammable nar-
cotics in the vicinity.
• Always remove the dust cover before switching on the device.
Otherwise, the light sources may be destroyed by overheating. After
use, ensure that the device is switched off before replacing the co-
ver.
• The removal of housing parts and repairs should only be underta-
ken by appropriately trained and authorized specialist staff. Improper
repairs may result in considerable risk to operator and patient.
• Only original spare parts and accessories may be used for re-
pairs.
• If exposed to the effects of an external force (e.g. by being acci-
dentally knocked or dropped), this type of sensitive measuring device
must be promptly checked according to section 6.1 (Function check)
and, if necessary, returned to the factory for repair.
• The manufacturer of this device is not liable for loss or damage
due to its unauthorized handling. All consequent guarantee claims
become invalid.
• Only suitably-trained and experienced staff must operate the soft-
ware (for the generation of measuring data and calculations, along with
the manual entry, editing and deletion of data) and interpret results.
All members of operating staff must be suitably-trained and familiar
with the contents of the operating manual, with particular reference
to the safety instructions contained in it.
• Measurements can be carried out with dilated or undilated pu-
pils. The A-scan (axial eye length, corneal thickness, anterior cham-
ber depth, lens thickness), keratometry and white-to-white distance
measurement are not influenced by dilatation status. Dilatation status
does have a bearing on pupillometry.
• The software must only be installed by persons trained to do so.
• The PC on which the EyeSuite Biometry software is installed must
not contain or run any other software that might limit the functioning
