Initialsetupisimportanttoachieveexpectedresultsandseamlessoperation.
• Perform operational verification prior to use. If the MR400 fails to function properly,
remove it from use and contact technical support personnel.
• Do not allow the patient to move while the MR400 is being used as over-activity may
result in prolonged or inaccurate readings.
• Position of the accessories may affect measurement accuracy. Always consult a
physician for interpretation of measurements provided by the MR400.
• Do not operate the MR400 outside the specifications indicated in Appendix A as it will
cause inaccurate results.
• A minor but noticeable degradation in wireless module communications may occur in the
presence of high-powered radios.
• Prior to clinical use, the user must be aware of the minimum distance from the MR magnet
that must be maintained for proper operation; see Positioning the MR400 on page 3-2 for
details.
