To activate/deactivate the auto on/off feature: • Press and hold the program and dental light buttons simultaneously for three seconds. One beep confirms the auto on/off is off. • Press and hold the program and dental light buttons simultaneously for three seconds. Three beeps confirm that the auto on/off is on.

ADJUSTMENTS

Focus Setting The A-dec 371 dental light is factory set for optimum illumination between 12 - 27 inches (300 - 700 mm) from the oral cavity. This setting is fixed and cannot be adjusted.

Dental Light Positioning Properly adjusted, your dental light should rotate and pivot to provide smooth positioning (see Figure 7). If the light head is difficult to position, moves too easily, or tends to slip out of position, you can adjust the horizontal and vertical tension (see Figure 8 and Figure 9). Figure 7. Light Head Rotation

A-dec 371 Dental Light Instructions For Use

Rotation Adjustments 1. For horizontal rotation, use a hex key to turn the adjustment screws, beginning with the screw at the top of the switch housing (see Figure 8). 2. If the light head moves too easily, or tends to drift out of position, increase the tension by turning the screws right. 3. If the light is difficult to move, loosen the tension by turning the screws left. Use the same procedure to adjust vertical rotation (see Figure 9).

Bulb Replacement A spare bulb is attached to the inside of the light flexarm end cap. To remove the end cap, pull from the bottom first, then straight out, being careful not to damage the bulb (see Figure 10). Figure 10. Remove Flexarm End Cap A

For your convenience, the spare bulb part number is etched on the inside of the end cap (see Figure 11). Use this number when ordering replacement bulbs. Figure 11. End Cap With Spare Bulb A

CAUTION Do not remove the outer wrapper when removing the bulb from the end cap. Finger oils can affect light performance and severely limit bulb life. If you should inadvertently touch the bulb, gently clean it with cotton dampened with isopropyl or ethyl alcohol.

To avoid burning your fingers, allow the bulb to cool before removing. Never operate the light with the light shield removed. The clear shield contains UV blocking additives. The light shield is also your protection in the unlikely event that the bulb shatters. WARNING

Follow these steps when replacing the bulb: 1. Turn OFF the light and allow it to cool. 2. Gently pull the light shield tab out on one side while gripping the top portion of the shield to remove, then set it aside (see Figure 12). Figure 12. Remove Light Shield

3. Remove the bulb cap assembly by rotating the cap assembly counter clockwise, then set aside. 4. Using a gauze pad or cloth to protect your fingers, carefully pull the old bulb from its socket. Discard the bulb.

5. Holding the new bulb in its outer wrapper with the pins away from you, carefully insert the bulb pins into the socket (see Figure 13). The bulb base is fragile and can break under excess pressure. Figure 13. Insert New Bulb

Care & Asepsis Instructions Touch and Transfer Surfaces Touch surfaces are those areas that require contact and become potential crosscontamination points during dental procedures. The minimum touch surface locations with A-dec 371 lights include touchpads and the dental light handle. Transfer surfaces are those surfaces that are contaminated by contact with instruments and other inanimate objects. There are no transfer surfaces on the A-dec 371 dental light. A-dec recommends barrier protection for all applicable touch and transfer surfaces. When used, barriers must be FDA market-cleared barrier plastic. Cover-All™ barrier film or any other FDA market-cleared barrier film is suitable for this application. Refer to your national regulatory authorities for barrier recommendations specific to your locale. Barrier plastics should be removed and discarded after each patient treatment. For recommendations on cleaning and chemical disinfection of touch and transfer surfaces (where barrier protection is not applicable or when barriers are compromised), please refer to the A-dec Equipment Asepsis Guide (P/N 85.0696.00).
