Safety notes
The Bluephase N is is an electronic device and a medical
product which is subject to IEC 60601-1 (EN 60601-1)
and EMC directives, as well as the 93/42/EEC Medical
Device Directive. The appliance complies with the
relevant EU regulations and is classified as an LED
Class 2 product.
The apparatus has been shipped from the manufacturer
in a safe and technically sound condition. In order to
maintain this condition and to ensure risk-free operation,
the notes and regulations in these Instructions for Use
have to be observed. To prevent damage to equipment
and risks for patients, users, and third parties, the
following safety instructions have to be observed.
Materials, the polymerization of which is
activated outside the wavelength range of
385–515 nm (no materials known to date.)
If you are not sure about certain products,
please ask the manufacturer of the corres-
ponding material.
Do not charge or use the appliance near
flammable or combustible substances.
Portable and mobile high-frequency communi-
cation devices may interfere with medical
equipment. The use of mobile phones during
operation is not allowed.

7
Usage and liability
– Bluephase N must only be employed for the intended
use. Any other uses are contraindicated. Liability can-
not be accepted for damage resulting from misuse or
failure to observe the Operating Instructions.
– The user is responsible for testing Bluephase N for its
use and suitability for the intended purposes. This is
particularly important if other equipment is used in the
immediate vicinity of Bluephase N at the same time.
– Use only original spare parts and accessories from
Ivoclar Vivadent (see Accessories). The manufacturer
does not accept any liability for damage resulting from
the use of other spare parts or accessories.
– The light probe is an applied part and may warm up to
a maximum of 45 °C (113 °F) at the interface to the
handpiece during operation.
Operating voltage
Before switching on, make sure that
a) the voltage indicated on the rating plate complies with
the local power supply.
b) the unit has acquired the ambient temperature.
If the battery or power pack are used separately, e.g.
during start-up or Click & Cure corded operation, contact
with patients or third parties must be prevented. Do not
touch the exposed contacts of the battery or connection
plug (power pack).
Assumption of impaired safety
If it has to be assumed that safe operation is no longer
possible, the power must be disconnected and the bat-
tery removed to avoid accidental operation. This may be
the case, for example, if the apparatus is visibly dam-
aged or no longer works correctly. A complete disconnec-
tion from the power supply is only ensured when the
power cord is disconnected from the power source.
Eye protection
Direct or indirect exposure of the eyes must be prevent-
ed. Prolonged exposure to the light is unpleasant for the
eyes and may result in injury. Therefore, using the sup-
plied anti-glare cones is recommended. Individuals who
are generally sensitive to light, who take photosensitiz-
ing drugs, have undergone eye surgery, or people who
work with the apparatus or in its vicinity for long periods
of time should not be exposed to the light of this device
and wear protective goggles (orange) that absorb light
below 515 nm.
Battery
Caution: Use only original spare parts, particularly Ivoclar
Vivadent batteries and charging bases.
Do not short circuit battery. Do not store at temperatures
above 40 °C / 104 °F (or 60 °C / 140 °F for a short
period). Always store batteries charged. The storage
period must not exceed 6 months. May explode if
disposed of in fire.
Please note that the lithium polymer battery may react
with explosion, fire, and smoke development in case of
inappropriate handling and mechanical damage.
Damaged lithium polymer batteries must no longer be
used.
The electrolytes and electrolyte fumes released during
exlosion, fire, and smoke development are toxic and
corrosive. In case of contact with the eyes and skin,
immediately rinse with copious amounts of water. Avoid
the inhalation of the fumes. See a physician immediately
in case of indisposition.
Heat development
As it is the case with all high-performance lights, the
high light intensity results in a certain heat development.
Prolonged exposure of areas near the pulp and soft
tissues may result in irreversible or reversible damage.
Therefore, the recommended curing times have to be
observed. Uninterrupted curing times of more than
20 seconds on the same tooth surface, as well as direct
contact with the gingiva, oral mucous membrane, or
skin, have to be prevented. If required, polymerize
indirect restorations at intermitting intervals of
20 seconds each or use external cooling with an air
stream.

Check the delivery for completeness and any possible
transportation damage (see delivery form). If components
are missing or damaged, immediately contact your dealer
or your Service Center.
Charging base
Before you switch on the device, make sure that the volt-
age mentioned on the rating plate complies with your
local power supply. The rating plate is attached to the
underside of the charging base.
Place the charging base on a suitable, flat table top.
Remove the protective foil from the connection plug of
the power pack. Slide the connection plug of the power
pack into the socket on the underside of the charging
base. Tilt it slightly and apply slight pressure until you
hear and feel it snap into place.
Connect the power cord with the power supply and the
power pack. The Power ON indicator on the left side of
the housing lights up in blue (see Indicators on the
charging base).
Handpiece
Before you insert the light probe, remove the protective
foil on the corresponding opening of the handpiece.
Slightly turn the light probe while attaching it to the
handpiece.
After that, mount anti-glare protection on the light
probe.
8
Start-up

Battery
We recommend fully charging the battery before the first
use.
If the battery is fully charged, it features a curing
capacity of approximately 60 minutes.
Slide the battery straight into the handpiece until you
hear and feel it click into place.
Gently place the handpiece in the corresponding rest in
the charging base. If a sleeve is used, please remove it
before you charge the battery.
If possible, use the light always with a fully charged
battery. This will prolong the service life. It is therefore
recommended to place the handpiece into the charging
base after each patient. The charging time for empty
batteries is 2 hours.
Charging status of the battery
With the handpiece switched on, the current charging
status is shown on the display as follows:
Battery fully charged (curing capacity of
approximately 60 minutes)
Battery half full
Reserve (The last bar in the battery indica-
tor is red in the reserve mode. The battery
has to be charged as soon as possible.)
When the battery is being charged, „Char-
ging Battery“ briefly appears in the display
before the display returns to the stand-by
mode.
If the battery is completely empty, the
handpiece automatically switches to the
stand-by mode. The light can no longer
be called up and the curing program and
curing time can no longer be set. However,
the handpiece can be used in the Click &
Cure corded operation.
Since the battery is a consumable, it has to be replaced
after its typical life cycle has expired after 2½ years.
See battery label for the age of the battery.
9

Click & Cure corded operation
Bluephase N can be used in corded operation at any
time, but particularly when the battery is completely
empty.
For this purpose, remove the battery from the handpiece.
Then remove the power pack from the underside of the
charging base. Do not pull on the power cord.
Insert the connection plug straight into the handpiece
until you hear and feel it click into place.
During corded operation, the charging base cannot
charge the battery.
The apparatus is only completely disconnected from the
power supply if the power cord has been pulled out of
the plug-in socket.
Disinfect or autoclave contaminated surfaces of the
curing light, as well as light probes, and anti-glare cones
before each use. Furthermore, make sure that the stipu-
lated light intensity permits adequate polymerization. For
that purpose, check the light probe for contamination
and damage, as well as the light intensity at regular
intervals (e.g. with the Ivoclar Vivadent radiometer
“Bluephase Meter”).
Selecting the curing program and time
The curing program and the curing time can be
individually set. Bluephase N is equipped with the
following 3 curing programs for the different indications.
The desired curing program is selected with the program
selection buttons. The display changes accordingly (see
Indicators on the handpiece).
Upon the first start-up, the following settings have been
preset:
– HIGH (High Power): 10 seconds
– LOW (Low Power): 10 seconds
– SOFT (Soft start): 15 seconds
The intended curing time is selected using the time
selection buttons. Users may choose between 5, 10, 15,
20 and 30 seconds.
Observe the Instructions for Use of the material applied
when selecting the curing time.
The curing recommendations for composite materials
apply to all shades and, if not mentioned otherwise in
the Instructions for Use of the relevant material, to a
maximum layer thickness of 2 mm. Generally, these
recommendations apply to situations where the emission
window of the light probe is placed directly over the
material to be polymerized. Increasing the distance
between the light source and the material will require
the curing time to be extended accordingly. For instance,
if the distance to the material is 9 mm, the effective light
output is reduced by approx. 50%. In this case, the
recommended curing time has to be doubled.

Cure Memory function
The last settings used, together with the combination of
curing program and curing time, are automatically saved.
Start
The light is switched on by means of the start button.
Once the selected curing time has elapsed, the curing
program is automatically terminated. If desired, the light
can be switched off before the set curing time has
elapsed by pressing the start button again. The fan is
activated simultaneously to the light. Once the curing
time has elapsed, the fan continues to run for a certain
time to cool the apparatus. The battery must not be
removed as long as the fan is still running.
Acoustic signals
Acoustic signals can be heard for the following functions:
– Start (Stop)
– Every 10 seconds
– Program change
– Curing time change
– Connecting the battery to the charging base
– Inserting battery
– Error message
If desired, the volume of the acoustic signals can be
adjusted. For that purpose, press the blue volume button
while the light is off and reduce the volume or turn the
acoustic signals off with the left program selection but-
ton. If you want to turn the acoustic signals back on or
increase the volume, press the blue volume button and
then the right program selection button.
Light intensity
The light intensity is maintained at a consistent level
during operation. If the supplied 10 mm light probe is
used, the light intensity has been calibrated to
1200 mW/cm2± 10%.
The use of a light probe other than the one provided has
a direct influence on the light intensity emitted.
In parallel-walled light probes (10 mm), the diameter is
equal at both ends. In focussing light probes (10>8 mm
light probe, Pin-Point light probe 6>2 mm), the diameter
of the rear end is larger than that of the light emission
window. The incident blue light is thus bundled to a
smaller surface, which increases the light intensity emitted.
Pin-Point light probes are suitable for the polymerization
of confined areas, such as the attachment of veneers prior
to excess removal. For thorough curing, it is necessary to
change the light probe.
Measuring the light intensity
The light intensity of the Bluephase N and the enclosed
10 mm light probe can be checked by means of the
Bluephase Meter.
If the measured value does not correspond with the
expected light intensity, proceed as follows:
– Check the selected curing program.
– Clean possibly dirty light sensor (radiometer).
– Remove the light probe and clean the light emission
window of the handpiece with a cotton swab dipped
in alcohol.
– Clean possibly dirty light probe
(see Maintenance and cleaning).
– Replace a damaged light probe with a new one.
If these measures do not improve the results, please
contact your dealer or your local Service Center.

For reasons of hygiene, we recommend using a disposable
protective sleeve for each pa-tient. Make sure to fit the
protective sleeve closely to the light probe. Disinfect
contaminated surfaces of the device and anti-glare cones
(FD 366/Dürr Dental, Incidin Liquid/Ecolab) and sterilize
the light probe before each use if disposable protective
sleeves are not used. Make sure that no liquids or other
foreign substances enter the handpiece, charging base
and particularly the power pack during cleaning (risk of
electrical shock). Disconnect the charging base from the
power source when cleaning it.
Housing
Wipe the handpiece and handpiece holder with a
customary aldehyde-free disinfecting solution. Do not
clean with highly aggressive disinfecting solutions (e.g.
solutions based on orange oil or with an ethanol content
of more than 40%), solvents (e.g. acetone), or pointed
instruments, which may damage or scratch the plastic.
Clean dirty plastic parts with a soapy solution.
Light probe
Before cleaning and/or disinfecting the light probe,
pretreat it. This applies to both automated and manual
cleaning and disinfection.
Pretreatment
– Remove gross contamination immediately after use or
within 2 hours. For this purpose, thoroughly rinse the
light probe under running water (for at least
10 seconds). Alternatively, use a suitable aldehyde-free
disinfecting solution to prevent the fixation of blood.
– To remove contamination manually, use a soft brush
or soft cloth. Partially polymerized composite can be
removed with alcohol and a plastic spatula, if necessary.
Do not use sharp or pointed objects, as they may
scratch the surface.
Cleaning and disinfection
For cleaning, immerse the light probe in a cleaning solu-
tion and ensure that it is sufficiently covered with liquid
(ultrasound or careful brushing with a soft brush may
support the effect). A neutral-enzymatic cleaning agent is
recommended. When cleaning and disinfecting, please
make sure that the agents used are free of:
– organic, mineral and oxidizing acids (the minimum
admissible pH value is 5.5)
– alkaline solution (the maximum admissible pH value
is 8.5)
– oxidizing agent (e.g. hydrogen peroxide)
Afterwards, remove the light probe from the solution and
thoroughly rinse it under running water (for at least
10 seconds). Cleaning in a thermal disinfector is an
effective alternative.
Sterilization
Thorough cleaning and disinfecting is imperative to
ensure that the subsequent sterilization is effective. Use
only autoclave sterilization for this purpose. The steriliza-
tion time (exposure time at sterilization temperature) is
4 minutes at 134 °C (273 °F); pressure should be 2 bar
(29 psi). Dry the sterilized light probe using either the
special drying program of your steam autoclave or hot
air. The light probe has been tested for up to 200 sterili-
zation cycles.
After that, check the light probe for damage. Hold it
against light. If individual segments appear black, glass
fibres are broken. If this is the case, replace the light
probe with a new one.
Battery contacts
To ensure reliable conductivity at all times, keep the
battery contacts free from possible contamination (e.g.
composite residue). For this purpose, clean the affected
contacts regularly in the course of the usual wipe
disinfection (after each patient).
Disposal
The curing light must not be disposed of as
urban waste. Dispose unserviceable batteries
and polymerization lights according to the
corresponding legal requirements in your
country. Batteries must not be incinerated.
