1 Safety Precautions
Operator’s Manual 1 - 5
• It is recommended to only use the video devices specified in this manual.
• Do not use gel, disinfectant, probes, probe sheath or needle-guided
brackets that are not compatible with the system.
• The applied contrast agency should be compliant with the relevant local
regulations.
• Read the Acoustic Output Principle in the operation manual carefully before
operating this system on clinical examination.
• The cover contains natural rubber that can cause allergic reactions in some
individuals.
• Please use the ultrasound gel compliant with the relevant local regulations.
• DO NOT expose the system to excessive vibration through transportation.
Mechanical damage may result.
• Always keep the system dry. Avoid transporting this system quickly from a
cold place to a warm place; otherwise condensation or water droplets may
form allowing a short circuit and possible electric shock.
• DO NOT use the system in the vicinity of strong electromagnetic field (such as a transformer),
which may affect the performance of the system.
• Do not use the system in the vicinity of high-frequency radiation source (e.g. cellular phones),
which may affect the performance of the system or even lead to failure.
• When using or placing the system, keep the system horizontal to avoid imbalance.
• To avoid damaging the system, do not use it in following environment:
– Locations exposed to direct sunlight.
– Locations subject to sudden changes in environmental temperature.
– Dusty locations.
– Locations subject to vibration.
– Locations near heat generators.
– Locations with high humidity.
• Turn ON the system only after the power has been turned OFF for a while. If the system is
turned ON immediately after being turned OFF, the system may not be rebooted properly and
could malfunction.
• Use the Freeze key to freeze an image or turn off the power of the system before connecting or
disconnecting a probe.
• Remove the ultrasound gel from the face of the transducer when the examination is completed.
Water in the gel may enter the acoustic lens and adversely affect the performance and safety of
the transducer.
• You should properly back up the system to a secure external storage media, including system
configuration, settings and patient data. Data stored to the system’s hard drive may be lost due
to system failure, improper operation or accident.
• Do not apply external force to the control panel. Otherwise, the system may be damaged.
• If the system is used in a small room, the room temperature may rise. Please provide proper
ventilation and free air exchange.
