Safety precautions
The RBRduo³ C.T | uv and RBRconcerto³ C.T.D | uv use UV LEDs (ultraviolet light emitting diodes) and should be handled with care. Ultraviolet radiation is invisible so it may not be obvious when the instrument is active. Exercise caution to avoid any associated health risks for the eyes.
The instruments ship with the UV schedule disabled, so it is safe to unpack them. However, going forwards, RBR recommends following protective measures at all times.
Eye protection
Use protective eyewear when handling the RBRduo³ C.T | uv and RBRconcerto³ C.T.D | uv instruments. RBR recommends UV-blocking safety glasses of the highest available rating.
Safe operation
Never look at the LEDs as their optical power (ultraviolet and visible) can be hazardous to eyes.
Whenever handling an active instrument, hold it with the guard facing down to avoid shining the light into the eyes.

The instrument begins to emit ultraviolet radiation as soon as a deployment starts, whether it is by twist activation or when the start time is set to "Now". |
When the UV LEDs are active, Ruskin will display a warning and the red dots on the UV power icon will turn green. See Ruskin User Guide: Standard Instruments³ for more information.
