charge the system may damage the battery, cause intermittent or unpredictable operation, damage the
system, result in injury, and will void the warranty.
Warning: The following actions will void the warranty of the Site~Rite
®
8 Ultrasound System and may result in injury
or equipment damage:
• Opening or servicing any component by anyone other than service personnel authorized by Bard Access
Systems.
• Removing system labels by anyone other than service personnel authorized by Bard Access Systems.

Warning: Inspect the AC adapter and battery cord for damage. If any of the prongs are damaged, use battery power
until a replacement cord is obtained.
Warning: Verify that all accessories attached to the system comply with applicable safety standards. Use of non-
compliant accessories may increase the risk to the patient or user.
Warning: The use of accessories other than those specified in the “Overview” section may result in increased
emissions or decreased immunity of the Site~Rite
®
8 Ultrasound System.
Warning: Equipment that relies on basic insulation only should not be used with this system. Failure to comply could
result in increased risk to the patient or user.
Warning: Do not pull on cables or overload the roll stand; doing so may cause the system to tip. Refer to the roll
stand instructions for weight limits or additional warnings.
Warning: Prior to use each time, inspect the system for damage. If any problems are found, discontinue use
immediately and contact service personnel authorized by Bard Access Systems. Using a damaged system
could cause injury to a patient or user.
Warning: Unapproved power cords should not be used with this system; doing so may increase risk to the patient or
user and/or damage the system.
Warning: This product should only be operated by qualified medical personnel.
Warning: Do not use the Site~Rite
®
8 Ultrasound System for ophthalmic indications; ophthalmic use may cause
patient injury.
Warning: Misuse of the Site~Rite
®
8 Ultrasound System may result in damage to the equipment or increase risk to

Warning: When using Site~Rite
®
Needle Guides and Pinpoint™ GT Needle Guides, use the sterile legally marketed

Site~Rite
®
Needle Guides instructions for use.
Warning: Do not place and/or use the Site~Rite
®
8 Ultrasound System and its components or accessories in the
presence of strong magnetic fields such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) devices. The high
magnetic fields created by an MRI device will attract the equipment with a force sufficient to cause death
or serious injury to persons between the equipment and the MRI device. This magnetic attraction may also
damage the equipment. If a needle tracking technology is enabled, the magnetic and the RF fields
associated with the MRI environment may interfere with the display of needle location. Consult the MRI
manufacturer for more information.
