• Do not recharge the battery in a confined space (carrying case, etc�)� There is a risk of fire or electric shock�
• Do not use the stimulator at altitudes of over 9,842 feet (3,000 meters)�
• Stimulation should not be applied over the carotid sinus nerve particularly in patients with a known sensitivity
to the carotid sinus reflex�
• Stimulation should not be applied transcerebrally�
• Stimulation should not be applied over, or in proximity to, cancerous lesions�
• DO NOT operate this unit in an environment where other devices that intentionally radiate electromagnetic
energy, such as RFID equipment, are being used in an unshielded manner� Fixed, portable and mobile RF
communications equipment can affect Medical Electrical Equipment� RFID equipment can, for example, be
Anti-Theft equipment in stores� In case of doubt about the presence of RFID equipment in the vicinity of the

DANGER
• Stimulus delivered by the waveforms of this device, in certain configurations, will deliver a charge
of 25 microcoulombs (μC) or greater per pulse and may be sufficient to cause electrocution�
Electrical current of this magnitude must not flow through the thorax because it may cause a
cardiac arrhythmia�
• Users with an implanted neurostimulation device must not be treated with or be in close proximity
to any shortwave diathermy, microwave diathermy, therapeutic ultrasound diathermy or laser
diathermy anywhere on their body� Energy from diathermy (shortwave, microwave, ultrasound and
laser) can be transferred through the implante neurostimulation system, can cause tissue damage,
and can result in severe injury or death� Injury, damage or death can occur during diathermy therapy
even if the implanted neurostimulation system is turned “off�”
• Handle, clean and dispose of components and accessories that have come in contact with bodily
fluids according to National, Local and Facility rules, regulations and procedures�
