Cleaning the Window Glass inside the Nozzle

When the window glass inside the nozzle becomes stained, it makes the fixation tar- get unclear, causing errors in auto alignment and measurement values. If the fixa- tion target is unclear or measurement values with parentheses are frequent, clean the window glass inside the nozzle.

Clean the glass when “CLEAN THE CHAMBER GLASS” is displayed on the monitor screen.

To clean the measuring window glass and the window glass inside the measuring nozzle, use ethanol. Using CAUTION other chemicals may cause damage to the patient's eye

during measurement.

 

Do not apply unreasonable force to the measuring nozzle

MEMO

while cleaning.

To avoid problems, do not leave the cotton fibers inside.

Be sure to use only the attached applicator.

1 Prepare the ethanol.

2 Moisten the applicator with ethanol.

3 Insert the applicator into the nozzle, lightly touch the glass surface, and turn the ap- plicator a few times.

4 Use a new applicator and wipe the glass surface in a similar manner; repeat this a few times .

The used applicator contains grease and it only scatters grease if used again; the light transmittance is not improved at all. Be sure to replace the applicator and use a new one for each of these repeated cleaning operations.

5 Cleaning is completed when the grease is thoroughly removed.

If stains cannot be removed easily, call your dealer. Press for a air check to confirm normal operation.

When the window glass inside the nozzle becomes stained, it makes the fixation tar- get unclear and “CLEAN THE CHAMBER GLASS” is displayed on the monitor screen.
