2 - Safety Information
General Cautions
The following caution statements apply to use of the XL Detect device
in general. Caution statements that apply specifically to particular
procedures appear in the corresponding sections of the manual.
HANDLE PROBE CAREFULLY. Keep the insertion tube away from sharp
objects that might penetrate its outer sheath. Keep the whole insertion
tube as straight as possible during operation; loops or bends anywherein the tube decrease its ability to steer the probe tip. Avoid bending theinsertion tube sharply.
Note: Always use the Home button to straighten the bending neckbefore withdrawing insertion tube from inspection area or putting probe
away. Never pull, twist, or straighten the bending neck by hand; internal
damage may result. At the first sign of damage, return the probe forrepair.
Certain substances may damage the probe. For a list of substances thatare safe for the probe, see “Chemical Compatibility” in the Appendix.

Mentions générales « Attention »Les mentions « Attention » qui suivent s’appliquent à l’utilisation
de l’appareil XL Detect+ en général. Les mentions « Attention » qui
s’appliquent spécifiquement à des procédures particulières sontindiquées dans les sections correspondantes du manuel.
MANIPULER LA SONDE AVEC PRÉCAUTION. Maintenez la gainede la sonde à l’écart d’objets pointus ou tranchants qui risqueraientde traverser son fourreau. Maintenez toute la gaine aussi droite que
possible pendant l’utilisation : en cas de boucle ou de courbure, il est
plus difficile de piloter le bout de la sonde. Évitez de trop courber lagaine.
Remarque : utilisez toujours le bouton de rangement pour redresser
le béquillage avant de rétracter la gaine de la zone d’inspection ou
de ranger la sonde. Ne manipulez jamais le béquillage à la main pourle tirer, le courber ou le redresser : vous risqueriez de l’endommager

Optical Tips
Optical tips are attached to the camera head using a double thread. This
prevents unintended departures of optical tips from the probe. Each
optical tip provides a unique depth of field (DOF), field of view (FOV) anddirection of view (DOV). A complete list of available tips is provided in
the Appendix.
Optical Tip Removal
1. Grasp the head of the probe with one hand and gently loosen the tip
counterclockwise with the other hand. The tip has cleared the first
set of threads when it spins freely.
2. Gently pull the tip away from the probe and continue loosening
counterclockwise until the tip is free from the second set of threads.

Optical Tip Installation
1. Ensure the optical tip is clean. Clean if necessary (See Cleaning
Optical Tips).
2. Grasp the head of the probe with one hand and gently turn the tip
clockwise with the other hand. The tip has cleared the first set of
threads when it spins freely and then seats with gentle force applied.
3. Gently push the tip onto the probe and continue turning clockwise on
the second set of threads until the tip is attached finger tight. Do not
over tighten. Pull gently on the tip to ensure proper attachment to
the probe.
NOTE: Never use tools or excessive force to install or remove an
optical tip.

6 - MaintenanceInspecting and Cleaning the System
Inspect and clean the XL Detect+ system before and after each use witha soft cloth and a 70% alcohol-to-water solution. If using the system in adirty environment, clean the components more frequently, as needed.
If damage is found, contact Waygate Technologies for return instructions
and an RMA (return material authorization) number. Early detection ofminor conditions can prevent costly repair.

Cleaning Optical Tips
Dirty optical tip surfaces cause distorted or blurred images. For best
image quality, clean the optical tip and camera head frequently.
To clean the probe tip, including the lens on the camera head, use glasscleaner or 70% alcohol-to-water solution and a pointed cotton swab.
Three surfaces need cleaning: the head can optics, the outside of the tip,and the inside of the tip.

D. Environmental Compliance

The equipment purchased has required the extraction and use of natural
resources for its production. It may contain hazardous substances that could
impact health and the environment.
In order to avoid the dissemination of those substances in the environment
and to diminish the pressure on the natural resources, we encourage the useof appropriate take-back systems. Those systems will reuse or recycle mostof the materials of end-life equipment in a sound way.
The cross-out wheeled bin symbol encourages the use of those systems.
If more information is needed on the collection, reuse, and recycling systems,
please contact the appropriate local or regional waste administration.
EU Battery Directive

This product contains a battery that cannot be disposed of as unsorted municipal waste in theEuropean Union. See the product documentation for specific battery information. The battery
is marked with this symbol, which may include lettering to indicate cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), or
mercury (Hg). For proper recycling return the battery to your supplier or to a designated collection
point.

What do the markings mean?

Batteries and accumulators must be marked (either on the battery or accumulator or on its
packaging, depending on size) with the separate collection symbol. In addition, the marking must
include the chemical symbols of specific levels of toxic metals as follows:
Cadmium (Cd) over 0.002%
Lead (Pb) over 0.004%
Mercury (Hg) over 0.0005%

The risks and your role in reducing themYour participation is an important part of the effort to minimize the impact of batteries andaccumulators on the environment and on human health. For proper recycling you can return thisproduct or the batteries or accumulators it contains to your supplier or to a designated collection
point. Some batteries or accumulators contain toxic metals that pose serious risks to humanhealth and to the environment. When required, the product marking includes chemical symbols
that indicate the presence toxic metals: Pb for lead, Hg for mercury, and Cd for cadmium.
Cadmium poisoning can result in cancer of the lungs and prostate gland. Chronic effects include100					XL Detect+™ VideoProbe®

Appendix
kidney damage, pulmonary emphysema, and bone diseases such as osteomalcia andosteoporosis. Cadmium may also cause anemia, discoloration of the teeth, and lossof smell (anosmia). Lead is poisonous in all forms. It accumulates in the body, so eachexposure is signifi cant. Ingestion and inhalation of lead can cause severe damage tohuman health. Risks include brain damage, convulsions, malnutrition, and sterility. Mercury
creates hazardous vapors at room temperature. Exposure to high concentrations of
mercury vapor can cause a variety of severe symptoms. Risks include chronic inflammationof mouth and gums, personality change, nervousness, fever, and rashes.
