3. Dangerous voltages are present
inside the monitor. The unit should
E
be used only in rooms that comply
with recommendations concerning
electrical safety when used for medical
purposes (as stated in IEC 60601 Series and
UL 60601-1).
4. Never insert anything metallic into
the cabinet openings of the monitor.
Doing so may cause electric shock.
5. System installation shall be in accordance
with the requirements of IEC 60601-1-1,
The Standard for Safety Requirements of
Medical Electrical Systems.
6. This equipment is not suitable for
use in the presence of flammable
anesthetic mixture with air,
oxygen, or nitrous oxide.
7. Some disinfectants and cleaning agents
vaporize to form explosive mixtures and, if
such agents are used, the vapor must be
allowed to disperse before the monitor is
put to use.
8. Before connecting the AC power cord to
the DC adapter outlet make sure the voltage
designation of the DC adapter corresponds
to the local electrical supply.
9. Disconnect monitor prior to applying
cardiac defibrillation to patient.
10. This monitor should not share an electrical
outlet or grounding with life supporting or
life sustaining equipment.
11. This monitor may not be used in connection
with life support equipment.
12. Equipment grounding is vital for safe
operation. Plug power cord into a properly
earthed mains supply outlet whose voltage
and frequency characteristics are
compatible with those listed on the monitor
or in this manual. Do not use plug adapters
or extension cords; such devices defeat the
safety ground and could cause injury.
13. Grounding reliability is achieved only when
the monitor is connected to a "hospital
only" or "hospital grade" receptacle.
Inspect routinely and do not use if damage
is discovered.
14. If one or more mains powered units are
connected simultaneously to one socket by
the means of a distribution box, the sum of
the individual leakage currents may exceed
the tolerated limits.
15. Be sure to hold the plug, not the
cord, when disconnecting the
monitor from an electric socket.
Doing so may cause electric shock.
16. Do not touch signal input, signal output or
other connectors, and the patient
simultaneously.
17. If your monitor does not operate normally,
in particular, if there are any unusual
sounds or smells coming from it, unplug it
immediately and return for service.
18. For the protection of service personnel, and
for safety during transportation, all devices
and accessories that are returned for repair
must be prepared for shipment as described
"1.6 Returning the Monitor"
in
E-6 of this manual. The manufacturer has
the right to refuse to carry out repairs if the
product is contaminated.
