To protect Patient/Exam data and System settings, Ultrasonix strongly recommends regular patient/image file
back-up and purging of older patient files stored on the system. Refer to sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.3 for details on
backing up User Settings and Patient/Exam data.
Hard drive removal is necessary whenever the system must be removed from a customer site.

• #1 Phillips screwdriver
• 2.5mm Allen Key
• anti-static bag .

protect the integrity of the client's data.
IMPORTANT: The contents of the system hard drive may include Personal Health Information that must be
protected as dictated by local or state laws (for example, Federal Privacy Act or the Health Insurance
Portability & Accountability Act (HIPAA)). In order to ensure regulatory compliance, Ultrasonix will not remove
the system hard drive – and the patient data it contains – from the customer site.
In the event the hard drive must be removed from the system, it will be returned to the customer. Final
disposition of the hard drive and its data will remain the customer's responsibility.

is to be reinstalled in a new or loaner system, no anti-static bag is required.
