Safety Precautions 1-9
10. The damage of the probe may be caused by the contact of
improper gel or cleaner:
z DO NOT soak or saturate probes in the strong polar solution
of ethanol, chloride of lime, ammonium chloride, acetone or
formaldehyde.

z Before connecting or disconnecting the probe, freeze or turn off the
diagnostic ultrasound system.
z Clean and disinfect the probe before and after each examination.
z After the examination, wipe off the ultrasound gel thoroughly. Otherwise,
the ultrasound
gel may solidify and the image quality would be degraded.
Ambient conditions:
1. To prevent the probe from being damaged, do not use it where it will be
exposed to:
z Direct sunlight or X-rays
z Sudden changes in temperature
z Dust
z Excessive vibration
z Heat generators
2. Use probes under the following ambient conditions :
z ambient temperature: 0°C to 40°C
z relative humidity: 30% to 85% (no condensation)
z atmospheric pressure: 700 hPa to 1060 hPa
3. Use D7-2E, D6-2NE probes under the following ambient conditions :
z ambient temperature: 10°C to 40°C
z relative humidity: 30% to 85% (no condensation)
z atmospheric pressure: 700 hPa to 1060 hPa
Repeated disinfection will eventually damage the probe, please check the probe
performance periodically.
