recommended in this operator’s manual, otherwise Mindray 
will not be liable for damage caused by other solutions. If

The probe sheath contains natural rubber that can cause 
allergic reactions in some individuals. 
Do not use pre-lubricated condoms as a sheath. Lubricant 
may not be compatible with the transducer material and 
damage may result. 
Transducer damage may be caused by inappropriate gel, 
detergent or cleanser: 
Do not soak or saturate transducers with solutions 
containing alcohol, bleach, ammonium chloride compounds, 
acetone or formaldehyde. 
Avoid contact with solutions or coupling gels containing 
mineral oil or lanolin. 
 
Read the following precautions to prevent the probe from malfunction: 
  Clean and disinfect the transducer before and after each examination. 
  After the examination, wipe off the ultrasound gel thoroughly. 
Otherwise, the ultrasound gel may solidify and the image quality would 
be degraded. 
  After an examination, wipe the ultrasound gel off thoroughly. Failure to 
do so may result in the ultrasound gel solidifying and the image quality 
being degraded. 
To prevent the probe from being damaged, do not use it where it will be 
exposed to: 
  Direct sunlight or X-rays 
  Sudden changes in temperature 
  Dust 
  Excessive vibration 
  Heat generators 
 
Repeated disinfection will eventually damage the probe. Check the probe's 
performance periodically.
