Risk of Electrostatic Discharge
• Usage in environments with synthetic floor materials (e.g. carpeting) or a relative humidity below
30% is not recommended. Environments with antistatic floor materials are to be preferred.
• If the unit is used in environments with synthetic floor materials, a relative humidity below 30%
or if you are in doubt, discharge any static electricity you may be carrying by touching a grounded
metallic surface or item before touching the unit.
Sensor
• Do not use sensors if damaged.
•
Do not put any mechanical stress (through pulling, stretching or twisting) onto the sensor cable.
This technical documentation is considered part of the unit. Precise compliance with the
technical documentation and the operating manual is a requirement of proper use and correct
handling of the unit as well as for ensuring the safety of the patient and user.
•
Read the technical documentation and the operating manual carefully and completely, as
information that concerns multiple sections is only included once.
• EnviteC only considers itself responsible with regard to the safety, reliability and function of the
units if the assembly, extensions, reconfigurations, changes and repairs are performed by
EnviteC or by a party expressly authorized for this by EnviteC and the unit is used in accordance
with the operating manual and the technical documentation.
• If the unit is not used for a prolonged period of time, the capacity of the battery must be checked
before mobile use and charged first, if necessary.
• Should reasons exist to doubt the accuracy of the measurement, the vital functions of the patient
must first be examined in another way and then inspect the functionality of the MySign
®
S.
•
The device must be positioned such that the optical and acoustic alarm signals can be
recognized from a minimum distance of 4 m.
Rechargeable battery
• Do not dispose of batteries as household waste.
Sensor
• Before using the sensors, carefully read the associated operating manual as well as all warnings
and other instructions.
• When selecting the sensor, consider the weight and activity level of the patient. Also evaluate
whether there is sufficient blood circulation at the application site.
• Movement artifacts can falsify the measurement result. Make certain that the application site is
kept still.
• The sensor should be protected from heavy exposure to light since this can cause measurement
errors. If the signal quality is not sufficient after about 10 seconds, try affixing the sensor at a
different application site.
• Check sensor and application at least every 4 hours for proper functioning (check position and
patient skin for damage), and reposition if necessary.
•
The sensor contains no latex. The materials used in manufacturing are free of natural latex
proteins. The materials that come into contact with the patient have undergone extensive
biocompatibility testing.
