1.5 Warnings

Throughout this manual the following meaning of warnings, cautions and notices are used:
NOTICE
1. The Affinity2.0 are class I medical products and they must only be connected to a power outlet with a
functional protective ground.
2. When connecting this device to a computer it is essential to insert a galvanic separation between the
device and the computer, unless the computer is battery operated or supplied by a medical approved
power supply.
3. If a mains powered computer is used without galvanic separation, it must be supplied from a medical
isolation transformer fulfilling the requirements of IEC/ES 60601-1.
4. Although the instrument fulfils the relevant EMC requirements precautions should be taken to avoid
unnecessary exposure to electromagnetic fields, e.g. from mobile phones etc. If the device is used
adjacent to other equipment it must be observed that no mutual disturbance appears, e.g. unwanted
noise in headphones. If disturbances are observed, try to separate the Affinity2.0 .0/Equinox2.0 from
the disturbing device.
WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result
in death or serious injury.
CAUTION, used with the safety alert symbol, indicates a hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in damage of the equipment.
NOTICE is used to address practices not related to personal injury or
