FAQS
Charger has a burning smell
Battery pins / Charger pins are corroded and will not charge
Pins corrode due to too much sterilization. Any liquid left from sterilization will cause corrosion. Make sure to have the unit dry after sterilization.
Friendo Pen is not turning on
This is the most common complaint that we receive from the customers.
Almost 98% cases are due to lack of charging.
Please keep the unit charged at ALL TIMES for longer battery lifespan.
Why does my Friendo Heating Condensation Pen stop heating after a few seconds?
The heating stops after 3 seconds and activates again after a short pause because we have upgraded our software to prevent any burns with longer heating cycle during the treatment for patient safety.
My Gutta Easy obturation gun shows “Er1” " Low". What does this mean?
“Er1” shows on LED display when the heater is in a bad contact with the PCB inside. Hold the Gutta-Easy Gun Body steady while rotating the heating end at least 360° to realign the PCB's contact with the heater. If the device still displays "Er1", please request for an inspection.
"Low" show on LED display when there is no battery, please charge the battery.
My Gutta Easy obturation gun does not turn on. What should I do?
If the gun was not charged, charge it, and try turning it on again.
Also, try the reset button on the bottom of the handpiece. Press the square button. Once pressed, it will click in. Leave it for few seconds and press it again. Unit will turn on. If it still doesn’t turn on, please request for an inspection.
Gutta percha pellet is stuck in my Gutta Easy obturation gun and does not work
Please request for an inspection. Our repair department would have to disassemble the unit and remove the pellet inside.
To prevent this from happening, please use 1 pellet at a time. Do not use 2. Once the pellet is inserted, insert the plunger pushing towards the mouth of the handpiece.
Also, make sure the plunger has the white o-ring (Teflon Ring) in place. Without Teflon Ring, Gutta Percha Pellet can move incorrectly and get stuck inside device.
