CAUTION: Do not under any circumstances remove the grounding conductor
from the power plug.
CAUTION: Do not use extension cords or adapters of any type.
CAUTION: Only use the AC power cable provided by Masimo. Using a
different AC power cable could cause damage to Root. Check the power cord
and plug to ensure that it is intact and undamaged.
CAUTION: Use a grounded outlet for proper grounding. A hospital-grade
outlet is required.
CAUTION: Do not connect to an electrical outlet controlled by a wall switch or
dimmer.
CAUTION: Failure to plug in the AC power cable promptly after a low battery
message may result in the device shutting down.
Note: Disconnect the instrument using the AC power cord connector.
Note: It is recommended that Root is attached to an AC power source when
it is not in use to ensure that the battery remains fully charged.
Note: For medical technologies that require AC power, the battery should be
adequately charged to ensure backup power in case of AC power disruption.
Note: If there is any doubt about the integrity of the protective earth
conductor arrangement, operate Root on internal battery power until the AC
power supply protective conductor is fully functional.
