General Cautions
The following caution statements apply to use of the device in general. Caution statements
that apply specifically to particular procedures appear in the corresponding sections of the
manual.
Caution ALLOW ADEQUATE VENTILATION. Otherwise, the base unit might
overheat. Do not cover or drape anything over the base unit. To ensure adequate
airflow, provide a 3 inch (7.6 cm) distance between the base unit and any solid
objects. When the base unit is installed in the case (the preferred configuration),
the front door of the case must be open during operation to prevent overheating.
It is recommended that you also leave the lids open.
Caution REMOVE POWER PROPERLY. To remove all power from the
equipment, the disconnect device is the AC mains cord and, if equipped, the
battery connector.
Caution HANDLE PROBE CAREFULLY. Keep the insertion tube away from
sharp objects that might penetrate its outer sheath. Keep the whole insertion tube
as straight as possible during operation; loops or bends anywhere in the tube
decrease your ability to steer the probe tip. Avoid bending the insertion tube
sharply; the fragile fibers contained inside may break. Always use the Home
button to straighten the bending neck before withdrawing insertion tube from
inspection area or putting probe away. Never pull, twist, or straighten the bending
neck by hand; internal damage may result. At the first sign of damage, return the
probe for repair.
Caution CERTAIN SUBSTANCES MAY DAMAGE THE PROBE. For a list of
substances that are safe for the probe, see
page 137.
