The Waterlase iPlus continuously monitors its performance and calibration. If any performance errors occur, the system automatically switches to standby mode to prevent any damage or malfunctions. In such cases, the screen will display a message indicating the cause of the error along with recommendations for resolving it.

However, for more complex errors, having expert support can make a significant difference in preventing downtime.
