These objects are not detected by the collision monitoring of the unit. Avoiding
collisions of the unit with these objects is subject to the operator’s duty to take
care.
If a collision of the unit with a rigid obstacle (e.g. step) has occurred,
◆ press one of the red emergency stop buttons,
◆ rescue the patient,
◆ immediately notify the SIEMENS Uptime Service.
❏ Avoid standing or sitting immediately adjacent to the system and especially
do not sit next to the system with your legs or knees under the cross-beam at
the head or foot end of the table.
❏ Take care that during system movements no one is in the area between the
unit base and table.
❏ Take care that with the footboard attached there is a risk of collision with the
extended cone (optional) when the tabletop and / or the longitudinal carriage
are moving.
❏ Do not grasp in the loading shaft of the spotfilm device because of the risk of
crushing.
Patient positioning
❏ All safety-related equipment must be installed and operable. In particular the
handgrip strips (head end and lateral), handgrip, footboard, foot restraints,
compression belt and shoulder supports.
❏ The patient’s hands, arms, legs, head and hair must not extend unsecured be-
yond the edge of the tabletop.
❏ Observe the patient while moving the tabletop and in system movements and
take care that any catheter is correctly located.
❏ In examinations with the table tilted up vertically, the footboard serves as an
adjustable step or seat.
– Ensure that the footboard is locked together with the tabletop on both
sides.
– Check the firm location of the footboard.
Warning
Under no circumstances must the unit be tilted down further or tilted up, since
externally invisible, but safety-relevant damage to the tilting drive may occur.
Severe consequential damage including personal damage cannot be excluded
in this case.
