service personnel before returning to use.
Smoke &

The system must be supplied from an adequately rated electrical circuit. The
capacity of the supply circuit must be as specified,
Biological
Hazard
For patient and personnel safety, be aware of biological hazards while
performing invasive procedures. To avoid the risk of disease transmission:
• Use protective barriers (gloves and probe sheaths) whenever possible.
Follow sterile procedures when appropriate.
• Thoroughly clean probes and reusable accessories after each patient
examination and disinfect or sterilize as needed. Refer to Probes and Biopsy
for probe use and care instructions.
• Follow all infection control policies established by your office, department or
institution as they apply to personnel and equipment.
CAUTION
Contact with natural rubber latex may cause a severe
anaphylactic reaction in persons sensitive to the natural latex
protein. Sensitive users and patients must avoid contact with
these items. Refer to package labeling to determine latex
content and FDA’s March 29, 1991 Medical Alert on latex
products.
CAUTION
Allowing the machine to transmit acoustic output with the probe
not in use (or in its holder) can cause the transducer to build up
heat. Always turn off acoustic output or freeze the image when
not in use. The system’s acoustic output remains transmitting
when the user controls are being used.
The system is equipped with an Auto Freeze feature which
disables acoustic output and freezes the image when the
machine is not in use.
