General Precautions

Make sure the unit is always grounded and secure during use. Do not disable power cord
ground connection. Grounding reliability is achieved only when power cord is connected to
a hospital-grade receptacle. Inspect the electrical plug and cord routinely. Do not use if
damaged. Do not use the Video Colposcope in the presence of any flammable anesthetics.
Do not open the Video Colposcope housing. An electrical shock hazard exists due to high
voltage. There are no user serviceable parts inside the Video Colposcope, except the lamp.
Note

Video Colposcope

Before initial set up of the Video Colposcope, check all components received against the
parts list of components (see Components section of this manual) to verify a complete
set. If parts are missing, please notify Welch Allyn. Review the Nomenclature, Preparation
for Use, Operation, and Maintenance sections to become familiar with the equipment.
Opening of the Video Colposcope housing by an unauthorized repair facility will
void the product warranty.
WARNING If peripheral devices (example: monitor, video printer, VCR ,other) do
not comply with IEC 60601-1-1, they must be kept out of the patient area (6 feet
minimum from patient).
WARNING DO NOT use a converter adapter that will convert the three-prong
AC plug to a two-prong line plug. The power supply in the Video Colposcope will
not be properly grounded and electric shock might result.
Caution The Video Colposcope is cooled via a vent fan located in the back of
the unit. The fan draws air in from beneath the Video Colposcope and exhausts
the air out the back of the Video Colposcope. To avoid overheating, verify that the
unit is no less than 6" from a wall.
Caution The colposcope can be damaged if the unit is transported while
holding the handle. The unit should be transported by grasping the pole.
