Inserting the fi bre optic into the hand piece
• Rotate the light guide slightly (
1
) and insert it into the hand piece (
2
) until fi nal positioning
is reached. The fi nal position is reached when you hear a “
click
”.
• Mount the protective light cone (
3
) on the top end of the light guide.
Positioning the light guide
• Rotate the light guide into the desired position for the polymerisation.
• To make full use of the light intensity provided, place the light guide as close to the composite as possible.
Avoid direct contact with the composite material!
CAUTION – Keep the light guide clean at all times to obtain full light intensity.
The light intensity is considerably reduced if:
– The light guide is not in perfect condition (scratched or chipped).
– The light guide is not correctly placed in the hand piece.
– The light guide has composite stains.
WARNING
A damaged light guide reduces the light intensity and must be replaced with a new one immediately.
Sharp edges may cause serious injury. Use original Kulzer light guides only.
WARNING – Infection control:
To make treatment as safe as possible for patients and operators, the light guide and the protective light cone
must be cleaned, disinfected and sterilised before each treatment. Follow the instructions listed in paragraph 8
(Cleaning, disinfection and sterilisation) step by step.
5.5 Battery
charging
CAUTION – NEW Battery: fi rst charging
The Translux 2Wave battery has been partially charged at the factory. Therefore the battery must be fully
charged before using the Translux 2Wave for the fi rst time.
NOTE – NEW Battery: fi rst charging
For the fi rst charge, this process will take about
3 hours
. New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may
take longer to charge. The battery will reach its full capacity after a few full charge / discharge cycles.
WARNING – RISK OF EXPLOSION
Use only the charging unit, supplied with the Translux 2Wave, to charge the battery. Never attempt to charge
the battery using another battery charging unit or power source, due to risk of explosion and fi re.
Insert the hand piece with the battery into the Translux 2Wave charging unit.
A beep confi rms that the contacts are in the correct charging position!
IMPORTANT NOTE – Alignment key
The alignment key (
5
), located at the back bottom part of the hand piece’s case, allows the correct insertion
of the hand piece in the charging unit. When inserting the hand piece into the charging unit, the alignment key
must be aligned with the slot positioned inside the charging unit.
Battery charging process.
The battery status is indicated by the battery icon at the bottom of the hand piece display.
a) Battery is completely empty
In this case, before starting the charging process, the electronics of the hand piece carry out a pre-qualifi cation
phase during which a few functioning parameters of the battery are checked out.
During the pre-qualifi cation phase, that can last approximately from 10 to
30 minutes, the battery icon on the display shows one single black bar blinking (
Fig. a
).
