Fire Hazards
The absorption of optical energy raises the temperature of the absorbing material. Do
not use the System in the presence of explosive or flammable materials.
Keep drapes and towels moist to prevent them from igniting and burning. Use non-
Flammable prepping solutions.
Do not use flammable substances when preparing the skin for treatment. Be
especially careful with the use of oxygen.
If alcohol is used for cleaning and disinfecting, it must be allowed to dry thoroughly
before the System is used.
Safety Features of the System
The System incorporates the following safety features. All personnel operating the
System should be familiar with these features.
The power electronics can not be activated unless the applicator has been connected
to the System.
An audible tone indicates energy activation.
During activation, the System performs a self-test of the hardware.
Hardware is tested every 1 ms to ensure proper operation of electrical circuit.
Tissue impedance monitoring prevents accidental energy emission to the patient.
Skin surface is monitored during the treatment. RF energy delivery is terminated
when skin temperature reaches the cut-off level.
There is brief delay between indication of energy activation and actual emission of
RF energy.
System is starting at lower power setting.
