WARNING!
Use only Arthrex approved accessories. Other accessories may result in
increased emissions or decreased immunity of the system. Contact your Arthrex
representative for a complete list of accessories. DO NOT modify any
accessory. Failure to comply may result in injury to the patient and/or operating
room staff.
WARNING!
Do not use in the presence of flammable anesthetics or oxidizing gases such as
nitrous oxide, oxygen, or endogenous gases. All oxygen connections must be
leak free for the duration of the surgical procedure.
4.6 Setting up a Footswitch
Only use footswitches developed by Arthrex specifically for the AR-
9800 Synergy
RF
console.
NOTES: Setup for a footswitch is the same for all models. The console detects
which version is attached and allows appropriate functions.
The footswitch connector cannot be properly inserted into the console
receptacle if the corresponding black dots are not aligned.
The pins of the footswitch connector may be damaged if the black dots
are not aligned before the footswitch is fully inserted.
The user may experience intermittent operation of the footswitch if the
connector is not fully seated into the console receptacle.
Insert the footswitch connector into the console’s footswitch receptacle. Align the
black dots on the connector and receptacle so they engage easily.
4.7 Setting up the Arthrex Single Use, disposable Apollo
RF
device
(Probe)
WARNING!
Check that the disposable RF device packaging and sterile barrier is intact
before opening the product and introducing it to the sterile surgery field.
If the packing has been compromised DO NOT use the product.
During the electrosurgical procedure, the patient should not be allowed to
come into direct contact with grounded metal objects such as the surgical
table frame, instrument table, etc., which may lead to patient injury.
