Important Safety Information
CAUTION
Do not look directly into the output port when the
instrument is ON. Never use a viewing instrument
such as a magnifier or microscope to view the free
end of any optical fiber connected to the 180XL.
The use of viewing on active fibers can focus an
intense laser beam onto the retina of the eye,
resulting in permanent damage or blindness.
Always aim the free end of an active fiber at a non-
reflective surface.
