Contact GE for information before connecting any devices to the equipment that are
not recommended in this manual.
Parts and accessories used must meet the requirements of the applicable IEC 60601
series safety standards, and/or the system configuration must meet the requirements
of the IEC 60601 medical electrical systems standard.
Periodically, and whenever the integrity of the device is in doubt, test all functions.
The use of accessory equipment not complying with the equivalent safety
requirements of this equipment may lead to a reduced level of safety of the resulting
system. Consideration relating to the choice shall include:
use of the accessory in the patient vicinity; and
evidence that the safety certification of the accessory has been performed in
accordance to the appropriate IEC 60601-1 and/or IEC 60601-1-1 harmonized
national standard.
If the installation of the equipment, in the USA, will use 240V rather than 120V, the
source must be a center-tapped, 240V, single-phase circuit.
