ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) (CONT.)
Note: To comply with the regulations applicable to an electromagnetic interface for a
Group 1, Class A Medical Device, and to minimize interference risks, the
following requirements shall apply:
• All interconnect cables to peripheral devices must be shielded and
properly grounded. Use of cables not properly shielded and grounded
may result in the equipment causing radio frequency interference in
violation of the European Union Medical Device directive and FCC
regulations.
• All of those recommended guidance regarding electromagnetic
environment should be followed.
Note: Do not use devices that intentionally transmit RF signals (Cellular Phones,
Transceivers, or Radio Controlled Products) in the vicinity of this equipment as it may
cause performance outside the published specifications. Keep the power to these
type devices turned off when near the equipment.
The medical staff in charge of this equipment is required to instruct technicians,
patients, and others.
