SECTION 3: warnings
• Persons fitted with cardiac pacemakers, defibrillators
and other active implanted medical devices, have been
cautioned that some types of electronic equipment
might interfere with the operation of the device.
Although no instance of interference has ever been
reported to DENTSPLY, we recommend that the
handpiece and cables be kept 6 to 9 inches (15 to 23
cm) away from any device and their leads during use.
• There are a variety of pacemakers and other medically
implanted devices on the market. Clinicians should
contact the device manufacturer or the patient's
physician for specific recommendations. This unit
complies with IEC 60601 Medical Device Standards .
• The use of High Volume Saliva Evacuation to reduce
the quantity of aerosols released during treatment is
highly recommended.
• It is the responsibility of the Dental Healthcare
Professional to determine the appropriate uses of this
product and to understand:
– the health of each patient,
– the dental procedures being undertaken,
– and applicable industry and governmental agency
recommendations for infection control in dental
healthcare settings,
– requirements, and regulations for safe practice of
dentistry; and
– these Directions for Use in their entirety, including
Section 4 Precautions, Section 5 Infection Control, and
Section 9 System Care.
• Where asepsis is required or deemed appropriate in
the best professional judgment of the Dental Healthcare
Professional, this product should not be used, unless
system is used in combination with a Sterile Lavage Kit
(P/N 81340).
• During boil-water advisories, this product should not
be operated as an open water system (e.g. connected
to a public water system). A Dental Healthcare
Professional should disconnect the system from the
central water source. The Cavitron DualSelect™ system
can be attached to this unit and operated as a closed
system until the advisory is cancelled. When the
advisory is cancelled, flush all incoming waterlines
from the public water system (e.g. faucets, waterlines
and dental equipment) in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions for a minimum of 5 minutes.
• Prior to beginning treatment, patients should rinse with
an antimicrobial such as Chlorhexidine Gluconate
0.12%. Rinsing with an antimicrobial reduces the chance
of infection and reduces the number of microorganisms
released in the form of aerosols during treatment.
• Per FCC Part 15.21, changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate
this equipment.
• Failure to follow recommendations for environmental
operating conditions, including input water temperature,
could result in injury to patients or users.
