WARNING:
5. Do not connect the system to receptacles that control
current to devices such as life-support systems and are
equipped with the same circuit breakers and fuses as
those of the system. If the system malfunctions and
generates an overcurrent, or when there is an
instantaneous current at power ON, the circuit breakers
and fuses of the building’s supply circuit may be tripped.
6. No waterproof device is applied to the system. Do not use
the system in any place with the possibility of water
ingress. There is risk of electric shock if any water is
sprayed on or into the system.
7. Use the system only in the environment specified in this
manual.
8. Use transducers specified in this manual. Using
transducers not specified in this manual may damage the
system and transducer or even cause an accident such as
a fire.
9. Use the transducer carefully. In case that the human body
contacts the scratched transducer surface, immediately
stop using the transducer and contact our company’s
Customer Service Department or your local distributor.
Using scratched transducer may cause electric shock.
10. If finding any abnormality in the system or transducer
during the scan, stop scanning immediately and turn off
the system.
11. The system and accessories are neither disinfected nor
sterilized before they are sold. Disinfect or sterilize
transducers and needle-guided brackets as the
transducers’ manuals describe before using them.
12. After disinfecting or sterilizing accessories, thoroughly
clear chemicals from the accessories. Residual chemicals
may damage the accessories and cause injury.
13. Do not let the patient contact the system or other
equipments. If the system or other equipments are
defective, electric shock may occur.
14. Do not subject transducers to knocks. Using defective
transducers may cause electric shock.
15. Do not open the shell or panel. Opening the shell or panel
when the system is connected to the receptacle may cause
short circuit or electric shock.
16. Do not use the system at the same time when using
equipment such as an electro-surgical unit,
high-frequency therapy equipment or a defibrillator, etc.
