CAUTION
 Always autoclave handpieces after they have been cleaned and lubricated with this product.
Ideal operating environment is 10-40 C (50-104 F), humidity at 25-70%RH, atmospheric pressure at
500-1060hPa and no moisture condensation in the Unit. Use outside of these conditions may cause
malfunction.
Ideal storage environment is 10-50 C (14-122 f ), humidity at 10-85%RH, atmospheric pressure at
500-1060hPa and the system is not subject to air with dust, sulfur or salinity.
When installing the product leave a space of approximately 10cm around the unit.
Place a collector such as a tray under the unit.
Set the air pressure between 0.25-0.30Mpa
Do not set the air pressure above 0.35Mpa
Do not open the oil cap during operation. Open only after the unit completely stops.
When opening the oil cap in case of abnormal stop (opening the door), wait for approx. 5 seconds
before opening cap.
After use, immediately turn off the power switch and close the air supply.
The air supply to this device (air compressor etc.) and air filter need to be clean and free from
moisture. Drain the air compressor and air filter at least once a week. Moisture from the tank could
mix in the tank could mix in the maintenance oil and defeat the purpose of this device.
Remove the air tube and the power cord if the unit will not be used for a long time.
When storing the maintenance oil, keep away from strong oxidizing agents, combustible materials
and strong acid chemicals.
Only purchase replacement parts and consumables from iM3 or risk invalidating the warranty.
