Electromagnetic Interference

This device has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for medical devices to the EN 60601-1-2 (2001),
Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a typical medical installation.
However, because of the proliferation of radio frequency
transmitting equipment and other sources of electrical noise
in the health-care and home environments it is possible that
high levels of such interference due to close proximity or
strength of a source, may result in disruption of
performance of this device.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with these instructions, may cause harmful
interference with other devices in the vicinity. Disruption
or interference may be evidenced by erratic or incorrect
functioning. If this occurs, the site of use should be
surveyed to determine the source of this disruption, and
actions taken to eliminate the source.
The user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one of the following measures:
 Turn equipment in the vicinity off and on to isolate
the offending equipment.
 Reorient or relocate the other receiving device.
 Increase the separation between the interfering
equipment and this equipment.
 If assistance is required, contact your Arthrex Inc.
Representative.
