• Do not allow the light emitted from the insertion tube’s distal end to enter your eye directly.
Otherwise, an eye injury may result.
• Should any abnormality be detected during angulation operation, do not continue the
angulation operation by force. Otherwise, the insertion tube or examination target may be
damaged.
• Do not subject the LCD surface to impact or strong pressure. Doing so could shatter the LCD
screen and cause personal injury.
• Do not rub the LCD with hard or sharp objects. This can crack or scratch the LCD panel.
• Do not allow a metallic object or a fluid such as water enter the battery compartment or the
battery terminals. Should any foreign object enter the instrument, remove the battery and the
AC adapter from the IPLEX MX II (main unit) and immediately contact Olympus.
• Do not touch the connectors directly by hand. Otherwise, a malfunction or electric shock may
result.
• Do not allow metallic or foreign objects to enter the device through connectors or any other
openings. Otherwise, a malfunction or electric shock may result.
• In case an irregularity such as smoke, abnormal odor or abnormal noise is detected,
immediately stop using the equipment even when it looks operable, and do not turn it ON
again.
• When transporting this equipment, turn off the power and remove the battery. It is extremely
dangerous to transport this equipment while it is on, as this can lead to unexpected
accidents.
CAUTION
• The image quality may be deteriorated in high temperature.
• Inserting the insertion tube into an observation object that is hotter than the operating
temperature may damage the equipment.
• Do not insert the insertion tube in a machine that is running, as this may result in the insertion
tube and/or machine damage. Also do not run the machine while the insertion tube is
inserted in it.
• The minimum bending radius of the insertion tube is 20 mm for the 4.4 mm type and 30 mm
for the 6 mm type. Bending at less than the minimum bending radius may result in damage to
the insertion tube.
• Do not bring the insertion tube in contact with a liquid other than water, saline, machine oil
and light oil. It may damage the instrument.
• Do not cover the instrument with a plastic bag or other object during use. If the inside of the
instrument cannot be cooled, the instrument damage may result.
• Do not use this instrument where it is exposed to direct sunlight.
• The LCD monitor may not display data normally when the instrument is used in an
environment where temperatures are below 0 °C. Use the instrument after using a heater to
bring the area to room temperature.
• Bringing the instrument indoor from cold atmosphere subjecting it to sudden temperature
change can cause condensation to form inside the instrument. Using the instrument while
condensation is formed creates the risk of malfunction. Wait until the instrument reaches the
same temperature as the room before using it.
• Never use the instrument in areas where strong radiation is present.
