Maintenance
Modifications and repairs
Modifications and repairs must not impair the safety of the unit or cart and accessories
for the patient, user and the environment. This condition is met when changes to the
structural and functional characteristics are not detrimental to safety.
Authorized persons
Modifications and repairs may only be undertaken by Erbe or by persons expressly au-
thorized by Erbe. Erbe accepts no liability if modifications and repairs to the unit or
accessories are made by unauthorized persons. This will also invalidate the warranty.
Technical safety checks
The technical safety checks determine whether the safety and operational readiness
of the unit or the cart and accessories conform to a defined technical required status.
Technical safety checks must be performed at least once a year.
