If the system does not turn off after 90 seconds, press and hold On/Off for
5 seconds to force the system to turn off. For more information, see “Trouble-
shooting” on page 113.
NOTE
Pressing and holding On/Off to force the system to shut down can cause the
same problems as prematurely unplugging the system. Wait the full 90 seconds
before assuming that the system has failed to shut down normally.
The fan comes on periodically to regulate the temperature within the system,
even when the system is turned off.
NOTE
To break the connection from the main power supply, remove the ultrasound sys-
tem plug from the wall outlet.
Positioning the Control Panel and Monitor
This section provides information about adjusting the display and information on
raising, lowering, and swiveling the system control panel and the monitor. For
instructions on moving and transporting the system, see “Moving and Transport-
ing the System” on page 106.
There are two ways you can adjust the system:
• Adjust the display settings for ambient light changes. For instructions, see
“Adjusting the Monitor Display” on page 81.
•Positioning the monitor and control panel for comfortable use.
Adjusting the Monitor Position
The monitor is mounted on an articulated arm that permits it to be positioned
vertically and in an arc from side to side. The monitor arm can also be locked for
moving the system.
You can adjust the position of the monitor to suit different operating positions
and operator heights. When it is released from its locked transport position, the
monitor can be tilted up and down, swiveled right and left, and moved from side
to side.
