Chapter 1 - Introduction Important Safety Information
8 Apollo Operator’s Manual
Part Number: 90 38 237, 6th edition
WARNING !
The Apollo anesthesia system must be serviced
only by properly trained technicians.
WARNING !
A test for leakage current must be performed by
qualified biomedical engineering personnel
before use if the Apollo is interfaced with other
equipment.
WARNING !
A preuse checkout procedure must be performed
immediately before each use of the Apollo. A
recommended procedure is provided in this
manual.
WARNING !
Do not use Apollo in areas of explosion hazard.
This anesthesia system is neither approved nor
certified for use in areas where combustible or
explosive gas mixtures (e.g., O
2
or agent-enriched
environments) are likely to occur.
WARNING !
Portable and mobile radio communication
equipment such as cellular radio telephones can
interfere with electromedical devices (see
“Electromagnetic Interference Resistance” on
page 221).
WARNING !
When moving the anesthesia machine, remove all
monitors and equipment from the top shelf, and
use only the machine handles. The anesthesia
machine should only be moved by people who are
physically capable of handling its weight. Draeger
Medical recommends that two people move the
anesthesia machine to aid in its maneuverability.
Exercise special care so that the machine does
not tip when moving up or down inclines, around
corners, and across thresholds (for example, in
door frames and elevators). Do not attempt to pull
the machine over any hoses, cords, or other
obstacles on the floor.
WARNING !
To avoid electrical shock hazard:
• Due to the risk of electric shock, do
not remove any component cover.
Refer any servicing to DrägerService.
• Use only hospital-grade grounded
electrical outlets and power cord.
• This device is to be used only in
rooms with line power installations
complying with national safety
standards for hospital patient rooms
(e.g., IEC 601.1, “Safety of Medical
Equipment”).
• Make sure the external equipment is
hospital-grade grounded before
connecting the equipment.
• Disconnect the power supply from the
electrical outlet before cleaning or
servicing. Let it dry completely before
reconnecting it to the electrical outlet.
Always ensure that the clamp for the
power cord, at the power supply end,
is tight thus preventing an accidental
disconnect from the unit.
• Do not connect additional external
equipment other than equipment
specified by Draeger Medical.
