Safety  Precautions  1-7 
NOTE:
1.  DO NOT use the system in the vicinity of strong electromagnetic field (such 
as a transformer), which may affect the performance of the system. 
  2.  DO NOT use the system in the vicinity of high-frequency radiation source, 
which may affect the performance of the system or even lead to failure. 
  3.  To avoid damaging the system, DO NOT use it in following environment: 
(1) Locations exposed to direct sunlight. 
(2) Locations subject to sudden changes in environmental temperature. 
(3) Dusty locations. 
(4) Locations subject to vibration. 
(5) Locations near heat generators. 
(6) Locations with high humidity. 
  4.  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. 
  5.  When using or placing the system, keep the system horizontal to avoid 
imbalance. 
  6.  Remove ultrasound gel from the face of a probe when the examination is 
complete. Water in the gel may enter the acoustic lens and adversely affect 
the performance and safety of the probe. 
  7.  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. 
  8.  Do not apply external force to the control panel; otherwise, the system may 
be damaged. 
  9.  If the system is used in a small room, the room temperature may rise. 
Please provide proper ventilation and free air exchange. 
  10.
To dispose of the system or any part, contact Mindray Customer Service 
Department or sales representative. Mindray is not responsible for any 
system content or accessories that have been discarded improperly. 
  11.
Electrical and mechanical performance may be degraded due to long 
usage (such as current leakage or distortion and abrasion); the image 
sensitivity and precision may become worse too. To ensure optimal system 
operations, it is recommended that you maintain the system under a 
Mindray service agreement. 
  12.
The iScape feature constructs a single extended image from a series of 
individual image frames. The quality of the final image is user-dependent 
and requires skill to efficiently apply the feature and technique. Exercise 
caution when measurements are performed from an iScape image. 
  13.
Ensure that the current exam date and time are the same as the system 
date and time. 
  14.
DO NOT turn OFF the power supply of the system during printing, file 
storage or invoking other system operations. An interrupted process may 
not be completed, and can become lost or corrupted. 
 
Please read the following precautions carefully to ensure the safety of the patient and the 
operator when using the probes.
