ART NUMBER FN091065, REVISION 2 VS5 N AND VS6 N SERVICE MANUAL
3-76 Section 3-4 - Preparing for Installation
PRELIMINARY
NOTE: Connecting electrical power to the Vivid S5 N or Vivid S6 N ultrasound unit involves preliminary checks
of the power cord, voltage level and compliance with electrical safety requirements.
1) Ensure that the wall outlet is of appropriate type, and that the power circuit breaker is turned OFF.
2) Uncoil the power cable, allowing sufficient slack so that the unit can be moved slightly.
3) Verify that the power cable is without any visible scratches or any sign of damage.
4) Verify that the on-site mains voltage is within the limits indicated on the rating label on the Vivid S5
N or Vivid S6 N ultrasound scanner.
5.) Connect the Mains Power Cable female plug to the Power Inlet (AC IN - refer to Figure 3-87) at the
rear of the unit. Use the cable clip to secure the cable firmly in the socket.
Note: In the next step, it is necessary to screw the plastic cable clamp (into the hole provided in
the support column - centrally located at the rear of the system, see Figure 3-88).
Then, to route the Mains Power cable upwards and through the clamp, and secure the
clamp in position to prevent the cable from dangling down and becoming caught in the
wheels when moving the scanner (see Figure 3-89 on page 3-77).
NEVER USE A THREE-TO-TWO PRONG ADAPTER; THIS DEFEATS
THE SAFETY GROUND.
ENSURE THAT THE POWER CORD AND PLUG ARE INTACT AND THAT
THE POWER PLUG IS THE PROPER HOSPITAL-GRADE TYPE
(WHERE REQUIRED).
Use only power supply cords, cables and plugs provided by or designated by GE HEALTHCARE.
THE SYSTEM REQUIRES ALL COVERS.
OPERATE THIS UNIT ONLY WHEN ALL BOARD COVERS AND FRAME PANELS ARE SECURELY
IN PLACE. THE COVERS ARE REQUIRED FOR SAFE OPERATION, GOOD SYSTEM
PERFORMANCE AND COOLING PURPOSES.
