SAFETY INFORMATION
This section contains important safety information relating to general use of the CLEO
Patient Monitor. Other important safety information appears throughout the manual in
sections that relate specifically to the precautionary information. Read all text surrounding
all precautionary information.
The CLEO can be powered by an internal battery that provides 3 hours of monitoring from
fully charged batteries. The batteries are continuously recharged when AC power is
connected to the monitor.
A warning message appears on the screen and an audible alarm sounds when the
remaining battery power is only enough for 15 minutes of operation. The user should
connect the monitor to an external power source to avoid loss of patient monitoring action.
External power sources may be connected, disconnected, and reconnected without
interrupting the monitoring action.
[WARNING]: To ensure that the leakage current protection remains within the
specifications, use only the patient cables supplied with or specifically intended for use
with the CLEO Monitors. Carefully route patient cables to reduce the possibility of
patient entanglement or strangulation.
[WARNING]: Disconnect the CLEO and sensors during magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI) scanning. Use during MRI could cause burns or adversely affect the MRI image
or the monitor’s accuracy. Also, to avoid burns, remove the sensors from the patient
before conducting MRI.
[WARNING]: CLEO Patient Monitor may not operate effectively on patients who are
experiencing convulsions or tremors.
[WARNING]: DO NOT lift the monitor by the sensor cable, blood pressure hose, or
power cord because the cable, lead, or cord could disconnect from the monitor,
causing the monitor to drop on the patient.
[WARNING]: Explosion hazard. DO NOT use the CLEO in the presence of flammable
anesthetics or other flammable substance in combination with air, oxygen-enriched
environments, or nitrous oxide.
[WARNING]: CLEO Patient Monitor is defibrillator proof. It may remain attached to the
patient during defibrillation or while an electrosurgical unit is in use, but the readings
may be inaccurate during use and shortly thereafter.
[WARNING]: CLEO Patient Monitor should not be used as an apnea monitor.
[NOTE]: Before use, please read this manual carefully.
WARNING: CLEO patient monitor is a prescription device and is to be operated by
qualified personnel only.
