Safety Precautions 1-5
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 bring
or use devices that generate radio waves, such as
cellular telephones, transceivers, and radio controlled
toys, in the room where the system is installed.
If a person brings a device that generates radio waves
near the system, ask him / her to immediately turn OFF
the device.
Precautions concerning movement of the system:
When you place the system on the mobile trolley and
move them together, you must secure all objects on the
mobile trolley to prevent them from falling. Otherwise you
should separate the system from the mobile trolley and
move them individually.
When you have to move the system with the mobile
trolley upward or downward the stairs, you must separate
them first and then move them individually.
Object placed on the monitor may fall and injure an
individual when moving.
Fasten and fully secure any peripheral device before
moving the system. A loose peripheral device may fall
and injure an individual.
DO NOT expose the system to excessive vibration
through transportation. Mechanical damage may result.
Do not connect this system to outlets with the same
circuit breakers and fuses that control the current of
devices such as life-support systems. If this system
malfunctions and generates overcurrent, or when there is
an instantaneous current at power ON, the circuit breakers
and fuses of the building’s supply circuit may be tripped.
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.
If the circuit protector is tripped, it indicates that the
system or a peripheral device was improperly shut down
and the system is unstable. You cannot repair the system
under this circumstance and must call the Mindray
Customer Service Department or sales representative.
There is no risk of high-temperature burns during normal
ultrasound examinations. It is possible for the surface
temperature of the transducer to exceed the body
temperature of a patient due to environmental temperature
and exam type combinations. Do not apply the transducer
to the same region on the patient for a long time. Apply
the transducer only for a period of time required for the
purpose of diagnosis.
