Procedure for the assessment of LASER Systems

The LASER system falls into class 2, but it incorporates an embedded higher class LASER. The following statements apply to people who do not have to access the LASER controlled area where the higher class LASER is located.

LASER products belonging to class 2 are safe for the skin but are not inherently safe for the eyes (as is the case for class 1 LASER); however eye protection is normally afforded by natural aversion responses to bright light.

It is important to note that the natural aversion response can be overridden intentionally by deliberately staring into the beam, and can be influenced by alcohol or drugs consumption.

Furthermore, people affected by disorders of colour vision, i.e. dyschromatopsias, are at higher risk, as they do not display an adequate dazzling. 

All maintenance shall be performed by qualified personnel.

For proper use follow the instructions reported in the Owner’s Manual and in this procedure.
