1.0 Safety Precautions (cont'd)
CAUTION
• U. S. Federal law restricts this device to
sale by or on the order of a physician.
Use this system only under direction of a
physician. A physician's order is required
for setting temperature and for continued
use of equipment.
• Evaporative cooling may result if the
patient's skin is not dry.
• Do not permit air from the quilt to blow
onto an open wound. Convective airflow
can cause airborne contamination to
open wounds. Use tape on quilt to restrict
movement of air toward the surgical site.
• For grounding reliability, plug only into a
properly grounded outlet.
• When using an I. V. pole, do not mount
the Power Unit higher than 1 meter.
Otherwise, the Power Unit could tip over.
