The following signal words are used throughout this manual:
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. It may also
be used to alert against unsafe practices or potential

Indicates additional helpful information.
Warnings and cautions
Follow the warnings and cautions given below when handling this instrument.
This information is to be supplemented by the warnings and cautions given in
each chapter.
•
This endoscope has a “forward oblique” view. There is a
difference between the direction of view and the insertion
direction of the endoscope. The insertion direction appears in
the lower portion of the endoscopic view, and the visible area
in that direction is limited. Always view the endoscopic image
carefully, and insert the endoscope prudently. Otherwise,
patient injury may occur.
•
Never perform angulation control, perform suction, insert, or
withdraw the endoscope’s insertion section without viewing
the endoscopic image. Patient injury may result.
•
Do not touch the light guide of the endoscope connector
immediately after removing it from the light source because it
is extremely hot. Operator or patient injury may result.
•
Regardless of the flexibility of the endoscope’s insertion
section, do not attempt to bend it with excessive force.
Otherwise, patient injury may result.
•
This endoscope is not intended for fetal use.
•
Before use, clean and disinfect or sterilize the endoscope as
described in Chapter 5 through 8 of this manual.

•
Never perform high-suction continuously. Patient injury can
result.
•
Never tie the elastic opening of both sides of the balloon with
a thread. This may cause the balloon to rupture or detach
from the distal end of the endoscope when inflating it, and
could result in patient injury.
•
Never inflate the balloon to a diameter of more than 20 mm
when using the endoscope in the trachea. This could result in
suffocation of the patient.
•
Never withdraw the endoscope while the balloon is still
inflated. Otherwise, the balloon may burst or detach from the
distal end of the endoscope. If the balloon cannot be
deflated, insert the channel cleaning brush (BW-7B) into the
irrigation port. Using slow, short strokes, carefully feed the
brush to remove debris.
•
When withdrawing the endoscope, make sure that the
balloon is completely deflated, using the ultrasonic image
and endoscopic field of view. Withdrawing the endoscope
while the balloon is inflated could result in patient injury.
•
Transnasal insertion is accompanied by the risk of
inflammation of the nasal cavity. If this happens, the nasal
passage will be constricted, making it more difficult to
withdraw the endoscope. In this case, do not use force to
withdraw the endoscope because patient injury such as
bleeding or perforation may result.
•
Transnasal insertion is accompanied by the risk of bleeding
in the nasal cavity. Be sure to be prepared to deal with any
bleeding. When withdrawing the endoscope, observe the
inside of the nasal cavity to ensure that there is no bleeding.
Even when the endoscope has been withdrawn without
bleeding, do not allow the patient to blow his or her nose
strongly because this could cause it to start bleeding.
•
Before transnasal insertion, apply the appropriate
pretreatment and lubrication to the patient to enlarge the
nasal cavity. Otherwise, patient injury can result or the
endoscope could become lodged and be difficult to withdraw.
Otherwise, the treatment will have no effect. The effects of
the pretreatment agent and lubricant will decrease the longer
the procedure lasts. Apply the pretreatment agent or lubricant
as required during the procedure – for example, when
withdrawal seems to be difficult.

•
Transnasal insertion of the endoscope should be performed
carefully. If resistance to insertion is felt, or the patient reports
pain, stop insertion immediately. Otherwise, operator and/or
patient injury can result or the endoscope could become
lodged and be difficult to withdraw.
•
If it becomes impossible to withdraw the transnasally inserted
endoscope, detach the ultrasonic cable from the ultrasonic
cable connector, pull its distal end out of the mouth, cut the
flexible tube using wire cutters and, after ensuring that the cut
section will not injure the body cavity or nasal cavity of the
patient, withdraw the endoscope carefully. Therefore, always
prepare wire cutters in advance.
•
Do not pull the universal cord during an examination. The
endoscope connector will be pulled out from the output
socket of the light source and the endoscopic image will not
be visible.
•
Do not coil the insertion section, universal cord, or ultrasonic
cable into a diameter of less than 12 cm. Equipment damage
can result and/or the ultrasonic image will be abnormal.
•
Do not apply shock to the distal end of the insertion section,
particularly the ultrasonic transducer and the objective lens
surface at the distal end. Visual abnormalities may result.
•
Do not twist or bend the bending section with your hands.
Equipment damage may result.
•
Do not squeeze the bending section forcefully. The covering
of the bending section may stretch or break and cause water
leaks.
•
The cover of the irrigation port part cannot be removed.
Equipment damage can result.
•
Do not hit or bend the electrical contacts on the endoscope
connector. The connection to the light source may be
impaired and faulty contact can result.
•
Do not attempt to bend the endoscope’s insertion section
with excessive force. Otherwise, the insertion section may be
damaged.
•
Do not touch the electrical contacts in the ultrasonic
connector. Equipment damage can result.
•
Do not pull, twist or tightly coil the ultrasonic cable. Noise can
develop in the ultrasonic image.

viewing the “live” ultrasonic image. When the equipment is in
the FREEZE mode, no ultrasonic energy is emitted.
•
Electromagnetic interference may occur on this instrument
near equipment marked with the following symbol or other
portable and mobile RF (radio frequency) communications
equipment such as cellular phones. If electromagnetic
interference occurs, mitigation measures may be necessary,
such as reorienting or relocating this instrument, or shielding
the location.
•
It is highly desirable that a backup ultrasonic cable be
available to continue clinical procedures in case of a
malfunction.
•
