• To avoid risk of electric shock, the equipment must only be connected to
mains power with protective earth. If a protective earth conductor is not
provided, operate it on battery power, if possible.
• Do not use the multiple portable socket outlets (MPSO) or AC mains
extension cords. Insure that the sum of the individual ground leakage
currents does not exceed the allowable limits.
• Do not touch the patient and live parts simultaneously. Otherwise patient
injury may result.
• Do not come into contact with the patient during defibrillation. Otherwise
serious injury or death could result.
• Do not open the equipment housings. All servicing and future upgrades must
be carried out by trained and authorized personnel.
• Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system for patient monitoring.
Turning the 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
patient situations. Always keep the patient under close surveillance.
• Physiological data and alarm messages provided by the monitor should not
be used as the sole basis for diagnosis or therapy decisions. They must be
used in conjunction with clinical signs and symptoms. Misinterpretation of
the measured values or other parameters can endanger the patient.
• Do not place the equipment or accessories in any position that might cause it
to fall on the patient.
• Do not start or operate the equipment unless the setup was verified to be
correct.
• 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 by patients or personnel.
• The equipment should not be used as the sole basis for medical decisions. It
must be used in conjunction with clinical signs and symptom. If any
measurement seems questionable, first check the patient’s vital signs by
alternate means and then check the equipment for proper functioning.
