Inspection and Maintenance
Regular inspection and maintenance of the monitoring system, its accessories and
its mounts are essential for maintaining patient safety. Failure by the responsible
individual, hospital or institution to follow the Service instructions may compromise
patient or caregiver safety and/or lead to device failure.
CAUTION: To avoid short-circuiting and otherwise damaging the device, do not allow
fluids to come in contact with the device. If fluids are accidentally spilled on the
equipment, remove the affected unit from service as soon as possible and contact the
technical personnel to verify that patient safety is not compromised.
CAUTION: Before moving the patient, disconnect the patient from all sensors that will
not be used (to avoid patient injury).
CAUTION: Read all cleaning instructions (for example, originating from the
disinfectant manufacturer and the hospital) carefully before cleaning the device. Refer
to the “Cleaning and Disinfecting” chapter for device-specific cleaning instructions.
Moisture may damage the circuits, compromise critical performance and/or present a
safety risk.
WARNING: If the monitor is mechanically damaged, or if it is
not working properly, do not use it. Contact your technical
personnel.
