6.1 Handling and use
The installation of the device on a patient must be carried out by a qualified person.
Always press the centre of the recorder’s keys with a finger; never use a blunt or
pointed object or your finger nail.
The R.Test 4 is not designed for use on children under ten kilograms.
If you believe there is any risk of strangulation with the spiral cord of the CM5 cable,
you can decide not to place it around the neck or alternatively make use of the V5
cable.
Operation in moist environment: The R.TEST Evolution 4 is water resistant to IPx4
and is protected from splashing water projections. However, the device does not
have any specific protection against moisture when the ECG cable is not connected.
Do not use the R.TEST 4 if any part, including the cables, appears broken or damaged.
Do not make any additions or modifications to the equipment, other than fitting a
replacement Novacor branded cable, but return it to your dealer for repair.
6.2 Cleaning
Before carrying out cleaning, the cable must be connected and the batteries
removed.
Regularly clean and disinfect the R.Test Evolution 4 and its accessories. We
recommend gently wiping with surgical spirit (70%), never use very strong
disinfectants such as nail polish remover or acetone.
Never leave the device in touch with liquid or a wet tissue
If you want to use another cleaning product, make a preliminary test to ensure there
is no degradation to the coating.
In particular, it is recommended to thoroughly clean the ECG cables between
patients.
