24 Operating Manual ARC 250 / 303 900-301_IFU-V2.2_11316-S0-20131023-EN
Ensure that no liquids (e.g. cleaning fluids, disinfectants, blood,
urine) get between the patient and the neutral electrode.
Do not place the neutral electrode under the patient's buttocks or
back.
Ensure that there are no ECG electrodes in the current path of the
HF device.
Example application using a disposable electrode
Remove the protective film and attach the self-adhesive disposable
electrode to the patient. Ensure that the long side of the disposable
electrode faces the operation site and the electrode is fully in
contact with the skin. This avoids excessive current concentration
on the short side.
Using both hands, press the self-adhesive disposable electrode
firmly against the patient’s skin.
Clamp the electrode tab to the neutral electrode cable.
After the operation, remove the disposable electrode carefully to
avoid skin damage.
Use of a one-piece neutral electrode
Check the one-piece neutral electrode during the surgery.
Use of a split neutral electrode
Apply the split neutral electrode correctly and without any additional
objects, as the HF device does not recognize the bridging of the
section surfaces by other objects.
