KSL-H AND KSL-Z by KEELER
• Do not touch accessible connectors and the patient simultaneously.
• The owner of the instrument is responsible for training personnel in its correct use.
• Ensure the instrument or instrument table is placed on a level and stable surface.
• Use only genuine Keeler approved parts and accessories or device safety and performance
may be compromised.
• Refraction stand variants or adaptors should only be used in combination with EN/IEC
60601-1 and EN/IEC 60601-1-2 compliant power supplies and devices.
• Shut down after every use. In case the dust cover is used: risk of overheating.
• For indoor use only (protect from moisture).
• Electrical equipment can be affected by electromagnetic interference, for example
videostream may freeze for one minute or more. If this occurs whilst using this equipment,
switch the unit off and reposition. Essential performance is determined as continuous
videostream which cannot be interrupted for longer than one minute.
• Despite the testing of the Digital Camera Assembly that has been undertaken, normal
operation of the Digital Camera Assembly can be affected by other electrical/electronic
equipment and portable and mobile RF communications equipment.
• Keeler digital KSL is not intended to be used with wireless technology. Do not plug
a wireless dongle into USB port. It is advisable to disable wireless technology on the
computer to prevent unauthorised access to the camera.
• Keeler digital KSL cannot be used in the vicinity of sources known to cause electromagnetic
disturbance (magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, radio-frequency
identification, metal detectors, electronic article surveillance and other electromagnetic
security systems). Do not bring the Keeler digital Slit lamp into magnetic resonance
environment.
• The Digital Camera Assembly should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other
equipment. If adjacent or stacked use with other equipment is necessary, the Digital
Camera Assembly and the other equipment should be observed / monitored, to verify
normal operation in the configuration in which it will be used.
Before use, the Slit Lamp should be allowed to adjust to the ambient
room temperature for several hours. This is especially important when the
unit has been stored or transported in a cold environment; this can cause
severe condensation to develop on the optical elements.
2.3 CONTRAINDICATION
There is no restriction to patient population this device can be used with other than those
outlined in the contra-indications stated below.
Slit lamps can produce discomfort in some photophobic patients due to the high illumination.
Additionally patients must be co-operative and capable of sitting upright for the duration of
the examination, therefore the technique may not be suitable for patients who are unable to sit
upright for long periods of time or those with limited neck and back mobility.
