1-4 Safety Precautions
Do not subject the transducers to knocks or drops. Use of a
defective transducer may cause an electric shock.
10.
Do not open the covers and front panel of the system. Short
circuit or electric shock may result when the system
hardware is exposed and powered on.
Do not use this system when any digital device such as a
high-frequency electrotome, high-frequency therapeutic
device or defibrillator is applied already. Otherwise, there is a
risk of electric shock to the patient.
When moving the system, you should first fold the keyboard,
disconnect the system from other devices (including probes)
and disconnect the system from the power supply.
13.
Accessory equipment connected to the analog and digital
interfaces must comply with the relevant IEC standards (e.g.,
IEC 60950 information technology equipment safety standard
and IEC 60601-1 medical equipment standard).Furthermore,
all configurations must comply with the standard IEC 60601-1.
It is the responsibility of the person, who connects additional
equipment to the signal input or output ports and configures
a medical system, to verify that the system complies with the
requirements of IEC 60601-1. If you have any questions
regarding these requirements, consult your sales
representative.
Prolonged and repeated use of keyboards may result in hand
or arm nerve disorders for some individuals. Observe the
local safety or health regulations concerning the use of
keyboards.
15.
When using intra-cavity transducers, do not activate the
transducer outside the patient’s body.
CAUTION:
1. Precautions concerning clinical examination techniques:
This system must be used only by qualified medical
professionals.
This operator’s manual does not describe clinical
examination techniques. The clinician should select the
proper examination techniques based on specialized training
and clinical experience.
2. 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
