Thank you for your purchase of the VITA Easyshade Compact precision
instrument which provides accurate shade determination for natural
dentition and a variety of restorations.
The instrument can measure a broad range of shades, including
VITA Linearguide 3D-MASTER, VITA Toothguide 3D-MASTER including
the BLEAC ED S ADE GUIDE shades and VITAPAN c1assical A1-D4 shades.
VITA Easyshade Compact also measures 3D “interpolated shades,” which
are intermediate shades achieved by mixing two or more porcelains together.
For accurate shade matching results, please read these instructions
completely before using your instrument.

21.4 B ttery ch rging
Plug the power supply into an appropriate power source using
one of the supplied universal wall plugs.
Insert the plug into the base unit (fig. 2).
The green LED battery charging indicator light is lit when the battery
is charging (fig. 2). Let the battery of the hand piece charge for a minimum
of five hours before initial use.
1.5 Applying n nti-infection cover
It is important to properly clean and disinfect the instrument between
patient uses and to use a new VITA Easyshade Compact anti-infection cover
for each patient to prevent patient cross-contamination.
The anti-infection cover also protects the fiber optics in the
probe tip from damage.
1. Insert probe tip into the cover
2. Remove paper backing from the cover
3. Pull cover carefully over the hook
4. Secure cover on the hook
Verify that the anti-infection cover is stretched uniformly and flatly over
the face of the probe tip and that the cover has not torn during application
(fig. 3-5).
The anti-infection cover should remain in place for all measurements
with the same patient, unless re-calibration is necessary as indicated
in section 1.7.3.
These non-sterile covers are for single patient use only and should be
properly disposed of.
Note: An anti-infection cover that has come into contact with
a patient must not contact the calibration block assembly.
If this occurs, follow the instructions for cleaning and disinfection
of the calibration block assembly in section 8.

1.6 Power-on
Turn on VITA Easyshade Compact by pressing and holding the measurement
switch on the top of the unit or any of the display switches for two seconds.
As long as the hourglass icon is displayed, the unit is not ready for use.
When the blinking calibration icon is displayed, VITA Easyshade Compact
can be calibrated (see section 1.7.1).
1.7 C libr tion
The unit may only be calibrated with a new anti-infection cover
in order to prevent patient to patient cross-contamination.
1.7.1 Automatic calibration
If the base unit is connected to the mains supply, the calibration procedure
is carried out automatically.
Place the instrument in the calibration holder so that the probe tip is flush
with and perpendicular to the calibration block and depresses the calibration
switch (see adjacent figure, anti-infection cover not shown).
Make sure that the hand piece is fully seated in the calibration holder.
A green light in the center of the base unit is lit and shortly afterwards
the hand piece probe will illuminate the calibration block (fig. 8).
A triple “beep” indicates the end of the calibration process.
Note: When the calibration icon is blinking, the hand piece
switch will not function; measurements can not be carried out.
Before carrying out any measurement, the unit must be calibrated.
If power is not available to the base unit, the unit must be calibrated
manually (section 1.7.2).

IR Port
After successful calibration, the measurement menu is displayed (fig. 9)
and the unit is ready for use. The measurement used last is highlighted
and activated after pressing the Enter key.
If a single “beep” sounds, the adjacent screen (fig. 10) and
a corresponding error number will be displayed (see section 12.4).
Calibration has failed and should be repeated.
Note: Make sure not to block the IR ports located on the
hand piece and the base unit (see adjacent figure).
Avoid placing the unit in the vicinity of a powerful light source
(such as sunlight or an incandescent light), which may interfere
with the signal transmission between the base unit and the hand piece.
