1.1.1 Warnings
WARNING
z This equipment is used to one patient at a time.
z Before putting the system into operation, the operator must verify that the
equipment, connecting cables and accessories are in correct working order and
operating condition.
z To avoid risk of electric shock, this equipment must only be connected to a supply
mains with protective earth.If the installation does not provide for a protective
earth conductor, disconnect it from the power line and operate it on battery power,
if possible.
z To avoid explosion hazard, do not use the equipment in the presence of oxygen-rich
atmospheres, flammable anesthetics, or other flammable agents (such as
gasoline).Use and store the equipment in specified environmental condition. The
monitor and accessesories may not meet the performance specification due to
aging, stored or used outside the specified temperature and humidity range.
z Do not open the equipment housings. All servicing and future upgrades must be
carried out by the personnel trained and authorized by our company only.
z Do not come into contact with patients during defibrillation. Otherwise serious
injury or death could result.
z Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system for patient monitoring.
Adjustment of alarm volume to a low level or off may result in a hazard to the
patient. Remember that alarm settings should be customized according to different
patient situations and always keeping the patient under close surveillance is the
most reliable way for safe patient monitoring.
z The physiological data and alarm messages displayed on the equipment are for
reference only and cannot be directly used for diagnostic interpretation.
z To avoid inadvertent disconnection, route all cables in a way to prevent a
stumbling hazard. Wrap and secure excess cabling to reduce risk of entanglement
or strangulation by patients or personnel.
z When disposing of the package material, be sure to observe the applicable waste
control regulations and keep it out of children’s reach.
z Ensure that the patient monitor is supplied with continuous electric power during
work. Sudden power failure leads to the loss of patient data.
z Do not touch the equipment’s metal parts or connectors when in contact with the
patient; otherwise patient injury may result.
z Never mix patient electrode types or brands. Dissimilar metals or other
incompatibilities may cause considerable baseline drift and may increase trace
recovery time after defibrillation.
