WARNING
Apart from using cleaning and disinfection agents as recommended herein, do not spray, pour, or spill any liquid
on LuMon Monitors (particularly on the openings of its chassis), belt connectors, belts and other accessories.
Neither immerse any parts of the LuMon System nor allow water or other liquids to enter the device. Failure to
do so increases the risk of electrical shock and/or may result in damage to the device. If a LuMon Monitor has
been wetted accidentally, it must be removed from AC mains power, wiped dry externally, allowed to dry
thoroughly, and inspected by qualified technician (e.g. a biomedical engineer) before further use.
WARNING
Do not expose the LuMon Monitor to heavy moisture and do not allow any fluids to enter the LuMon
Monitor. Plugs and connectors have to be kept meticulously clean and dry at all times. Failure to do so increases
the risk of electrical shock and/or may result in damage to the device.
CAUTION
Dispose of the battery in accordance with local requirements and regulations for Lithium Ion batteries.
WARNING
Explosion and flammability hazards. Do not use the LuMon Monitor in the presence of flammable or explosive
anesthetics/gases or other flammable or explosive substances. The LuMon Monitor is not rated for use in an
oxygen rich environment.
WARNING
The ContactAgent and LuMon Contact Spray are extremely flammable aerosols. Keep away from
heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. No smoking. Do not spray on an open flame or other ignition source.
Pressurized container: Do not pierce, crush or burn, even after use. Protect from sunlight. Do not expose
to temperatures exceeding 50 °C/122°F. Failure to do so increases the risk of fire and/or explosion.
Caution
WARNING
Before using the LuMon System verify that it does not interfere with bioimpedance measurement devices
such as impedance respiration monitoring or with ECG, EMG, EOG or EEG devices being connected to the
same patient. Interference with such devices may adversely affect the monitoring of the patient.
WARNING
Do not use the LuMon System on patients with internal or external pacemakers or other active implants such
as defibrillators. The LuMon System may affect the operation of such devices.
WARNING
The LuMon System is NOT rated for use with a defibrillator. Therefore, remove the belt from the patient
before defibrillating a patient. Failure to do so may reduce the defibrillation effectiveness or cause device
damage.
WARNING
This device has been tested and found to comply with the requirements for medical devices according to the
IEC 60601-1-2. These requirements are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a typical medical installation. When interpreting monitored data be aware that interferences that
either affect the LuMon System and/or other devices may nevertheless occur and, hence, may adversely
affect the monitoring of the patient. In case you witness or suspect interferences, contact a qualified technician,
your local Sentec EIT representative or Sentec AG.
WARNING
Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas)
should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the LuMon System. Otherwise, degradation of
the performance of the LuMon System could result.
WARNING
The LuMon Monitor should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment as these can cause
electromagnetic interference and thereby result in incorrect measurements. If adjacent or stacked use is
necessary, the LuMon Monitor should be observed to verify normal operation in the configuration it is to be
used.
WARNING
High-frequency surgical equipment may influence the operation of the LuMon System and may not be
operated in combination with the LuMon System.
