Setting up
To set up the HEINE®Retinoscope, plug the instrument head into the HEINE®supply
handle.
Verify that the lamp voltage complies with the supply voltage of the handle. The
coloured marking on the bottom of the XHL lamp shows you the lamp voltage:
White ring = HEINE XHL®2.5 V bulb
only for use with the HEINE BETA®battery handle
Red ring = HEINE XHL®3.5 V bulb
only for use with the HEINE BETA®rechargeable handle and HEINE®wall unit
The supply voltage for the BETA 200 LED Retinoscope is 3.5 V.

Operation
Two different-length brow rests (5) and (6) are included with the instrument.
They can be removed and interchanged according to user preference. The control
ring (3) is used to rotate the streak image through 360°. The lowest position gives a
divergent beam, the highest position focuses the streak at a distance of ca. 25 cm
in front of the retinoscope.
The ParaStop (4) limits the upward travel of the control ring to give a parallel beam
of light at the top of its travel. To operate, move the button down. To disengage, push
either the button or the control ring (3) upwards.
To convert the XHL Streak Retinoscope to a Spot Retinoscope simply change the
streak bulb for a spot bulb (see options).
HEINE Retinoscopes are intended for a transient examination of less than < 5 minutes
with a 15 minutes break until the next application.
ANSI Z80.36-2016 Group 2 (LED)
CAUTION: – The light emitted from this instrument is potentially hazardous. The
longer the duration of exposure, the greater is the risk of ocular damage. Exposure
to light from this instrument when operated at maximum intensity will exceed the
recommended maximum exposure (RME) of 2.2 J/cm², unless additional action is
taken by the user to minimize exposure, after 1 min. The risk of retinal injury at an
exposure of 2.2 J/cm² is not high, but because some patients may be more susceptible
than others, caution is advised if this radiant exposure value is exceeded. However,
because of a signicant risk of injury at exposures exceeding 10 J/cm², the user
should avoid exposures longer than 5 min.
If, after switching on the unit, a sharp drop in brightness is noticed, new batteries
should be inserted or rechargeable batteries recharged.
The setup and operation of the HEINE handles are described in a separate instruction
document.
Fixation Cards
The HEINE Fixation Cards for dynamic retinoscopy are attached to the retinoscope
by means of a special mount.
• Slide the mount from the patient’s side into the lateral grooves (A).
• Select a xation card and hook it on from above (B).
When not using xation cards the mount can be left on the retinoscope or canbe
removed by pulling it off.
Hygienic reprocessing
The instruction is available:
- online at www.heine.com
- in a paper version which you can request from the address listed
Maintenance
Changing the light source
Verify that the lamp voltage complies with the supply voltage of the handle.
