The unit should only be operated at a mains socket with protective earth contact.
When performing electrosurgical procedures, the risk of burns must be kept as small as possible.
For this, the following safeety measures must be observed:
!
All plug-in connections may only be carried out with compatible accessories.
!
Use the greatest care when working with the neutral conductor!
!
Protect the patient from contact with earthed metallic elements (OP table, infusion stand
etc.) during use.
!
Avoid contact between supply cables and patients, other cables or instruments! Ensure that
there are no loops in the cables of handles and electrodes or fixture tot he OP table.
!
Avoid small-area skin-to-skin contact in the patient (e.g. a finger making contact with the
thigh).
!
Avoid contact between HF instruments and non-insulated instruments.
!
Prevent the penetration of fluids between the patient's body and the neutral electrode.
!
The output power should not be set higher than is absolutely necessary fort he procedure.
!
Do not touch the patient during activation oft he coagulation or cutting current. Should this
be necessary, a piece of fabric can be used for insulation purposes.
