General Information, Warnings and Cautions
WARNING: When placed on a flat surface, the device should be secured
with a mounting system recommended by Masimo.
WARNING: Do not touch, press or rub the touchscreen with abrasive
cleaning compounds, instruments, brushes or rough-surface materials, or
bring them into contact with anything that could scratch the touchscreen.
WARNING: Do not use petroleum-based solutions, acetone solutions or
other harsh solvents to clean Root. These substances affect the device’s
materials, and device failure can result.
CAUTION: Ensure that the speaker is not covered.
CAUTION: Do not place Root against a surface that may cause the alarm to
be muffled.
CAUTION: Should the Radical-7 and Root become unable to communicate,
parameters and measurements will not show on the Root display. This will
not affect Radical-7's ability to monitor the patient.

healthcare facility.
Note: Excessive cleaning solution can flow into the device and cause
damage to internal components.
