1 Important Information
Operator’s Manual 1 - 3
• Accessory equipment (analog or digital) connected to the ultrasound
system must comply with the relevant IEC standards (e.g., IEC 60950
information technology equipment safety standard and IEC 60601-1
medical equipment standard). Furthermore, all configurations must comply
with the standard IEC60601-1. It is the responsibility of the person, who
connects additional equipment to the signal input or output ports and
configures a medical system, to verify that the system complies with the
requirements of IEC60601-1. If you have any questions regarding these
requirements, consult your vendor.
• When using intra-cavity transducers, do not activate the transducer outside
the patient’s body.
• It is not allowed for the operator to have contact with other patients and the
electronic parts (such as the input/output terminal of the signal) of other
devices that are connected to the system. Otherwise, it may produce the
electrical shock to the patient. DO NOT block the cooling vent of the
system.
• Do not expose the device to a magnetic resonance (MR) environment.
• DO NOT make changes or modifications to the software or hardware of this
system.
• To avoid the risk of electric shock, this equipment must only be connected
to a supply mains with protective earth.
• Precautions concerning clinical examination techniques:
– This system must be used only by qualified medical professionals.
– This operator’s manual does not describe clinical examination
techniques. The clinician should select the proper examination
techniques based on specialized training and clinical experience.
• Malfunctions due to radio wave:
– If a radio wave emitting device is used in the proximity of this system, it
may interfere with operations. Do not use or take any devices
transmitting RF signals (such as cellular phones, transceivers and radio
controlled products) in the room placing the system.
– If a person brings a device that generates radio waves near the
system, ask him/her to immediately turn OFF the device.
– Please install the system on a flat plane with casters locked. Otherwise,
damage may be resulted by accidental moving.
– Do not move the system laterally, which may result in damage in case
of toppling.
– Move the system slowly on the slope by two people, otherwise, damage
may result in case of unexpected sliding.
– Do not sit on the system, which may result individual falling in case of
system moving.
