System Preparation 3-3 
  Checking after it is turned on 
Press the power button in the upper right corner on the control panel.   
To check the system after the system is turned on: 
There shall be no unusual sounds or smells indicating possible 
overheating. 
There shall be no persistently displayed system error message. 
There shall be no evident excessive noise, discontinuous, absent or black 
artifacts in the B Mode image. 
Check if there is abnormal heat on the surface of the probe during an 
ultrasound procedure. 
The control panel keys and knobs are fully functional. 
The exam date and time are the same as the system date and time, and 
are displayed correctly. 
 
If you use a probe giving off excessive heat, it may burn 
the animal. 
If you find anything not functioning properly, this may 
indicate that the system is defective. In this case, shut 
down the system immediately and contact Mindray 
Customer Service Department or sales representative. 
 
When you start the system or switch between probes, you will hear clicking 
sounds – this is expected behavior. 
3.3.2  Powering OFF 
You need to follow the correct procedures to power off the system. In addition, after you 
upgrade the software or when the system is down, you need to power off and restart it. 
If you will not use the system for a long period of time, after powering off the system, you shall 
disconnect the external power supply; turn off powers of all peripherals connected to the 
system. 
  To power off your system normally: 
Gently press the power button once on the upper right corner of the control panel. The 
[Shutdown Confirm] screen appears. See the figure below.
