Important safeguards and notices for use
in the medical environments
1. All devices connected to the unit must be certified or
compliant according to IEC 60601-1, IEC 60950-1,
and IEC 60065 standards and other IEC/ISO
standards applicable to the devices.
2. Furthermore, the system as a whole must comply
with IEC 60601-1 standards. All peripheral devices
connected to the signal input/output sections of the
unit constitute the medical-use system, and
therefore, the user is responsible for ensuring that the
system as a whole complies with IEC 60601-1
standards. If in doubt, consult qualified Sony service
personnel.
3. Do not come into contact with patients while you are
in contact with the unit.
The unit cannot be used in the patient environment.

4. Connecting the unit to other devices may increase the
leakage current.
5. For all peripheral devices connected to the unit that
operate on commercial power supplies and do not
comply with IEC 60601-1 standards, incorporate an
isolation transformer that complies with IEC 60601-
1 standards and connect to the commercial power
supply via the transformer.
6. The unit generates, uses, and may radiate radio
frequency energy. If it is not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, it may cause
interference on other devices. If the unit causes
interference (which can be determined by
disconnecting the power cord from the unit), try the
following.
– Relocate the unit with respect to the affected
devices.
– Connect the unit and the affected devices to
different branch circuits.
For more information, consult qualified Sony service
personnel.
