• DO NOT use gels or lotions in combination with Light Therapy. Gels may clog the vents causing overheating and
damage to the internal components.
• DO NOT attempt to unscrew or tighten down the probe lens. This is not a threaded part. There are no user
serviceable parts in the Tri-Wave Light probe.
• If the treatment area is larger than the size of the Probe aperture, then areas equal in size to the aperture (6 cm
2
)
should be treated one at a time until the entire area is covered.
• Do not “bathe” the area by moving the Probe back and forth or in some other manner over the target area.
Failure to make full contact with the treatment surface may result in outcomes that are less effective. Other
methods may reduce total energy absorption. If the area is large, then the Tri-Wave Light Pads (two 5” x 7” pads)
may be a more appropriate treatment option.
• When treating the patient, the Tri-Wave Light Probe or Pads should be placed on the skin over the treatment
area. Maintaining constant contact with the skin is essential during treatment.
• DO NOT use over open wounds unless covered with a clear protective barrier (clear plastic wrap). An open
wound may be treated in the non-contact mode without protective barrier however energy delivery will be
diminished. Undue pressure should not be exerted on the wound bed.
• Never use water or cleansing agents on the Tri-Wave Light Probe Head or Pads. Caustic cleansers (even liquid
cleansers) may cause damage. DO NOT USE ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL. A soft cloth lightly damped with
water and a small amount of non-caustic soft soap may be used. Wipe with a damp cloth to rinse. If seeking a
commercial cleanser/disinfectant it is recommended that a product contain only the following active ingredients
to avoid damage to the probe or pads:
OctylDecyl Dimethyl Ammonium Chloride
Dioctyl Dimenthyl Ammonium Chloride
Didecyl Dimenthyl Ammonium Chloride
Alkyl (C14 50%; C12 40%; C16 10
Dimenthyl Benzyl Ammonium Chloride
Other Ingredients not published.
WARNING
This therapy must be used cautiously where sensory nerve damage is present or in any case where there is a loss of
normal skin sensation; including areas desensitized by medication or other therapies such as any type of cryotherapy.
