Prior to cleaning any device, turn off the system and disconnect power cord from AC power source
to avoid electrical shock.
Always use protective eyewear and clothing when cleaning or disinfecting the transducers.
Do not allow the disinfectant to come in contact with metal surfaces (transducer connector). Use a
soft cloth and warm soapy water to remove any disinfectant that remains on metal surfaces.
Keep the control handle and transducer connector out of any cleaning or disinfection solutions. The
control handle and cable may be cleaned with a damp cloth, but only the distal end of the probe up to
the 100cm marker on the shaft may be placed into a disinfection solution.
Do not use other disinfection methods like Iodine, Steam, Heat or Ethylene Oxide.
When servicing the z.one
pro
System, always be sure to turn the circuit breaker to the OFF position.
Precautions
Transducers are individually licensed according to system configuration. Only the following
transducers are available without an advanced feature configuration: C4-1, C6-2, C9-3, C9-3sp, E9-4,
L8-3, L10-5, L14-5w, P4-1c and P8-3TEE. The A2CW and A5CW transducers are enabled if the
system is configured with either the Echocardiography or the Advanced Vascular Imaging Feature
Sets. Attempting to use any other transducers will result in an error message.
Be aware of the potential hazards associated with the environment where the ultrasound systems will
be used. The systems and/or the external equipment can be damaged if signal levels are not
appropriate. If peripheral equipment not specifically authorized by ZONARE is to be connected to
the system, it must meet all applicable electrical safety standards that apply to the system in order to
maintain ZONARE’s safety integrity. Any equipment not supplied by ZONARE must be approved
by ZONARE. Use of non- Mindray -approved equipment may result in an unsafe condition, impair
operation of the ultrasound system, impair diagnostic capabilities, and void your warranty or service
contract coverage.
ZONARE transducers have a specific range of acceptable application use. Users are advised to
restrict each transducer’s use to those applications. Excessive bending, twisting, pulling, dragging, or
compression of transducer cables may cause failure or intermittent operation of the system. Avoid
rolling the cart wheels over cables. Use of cable hooks is recommended to minimize chance of
damage to cables.
If a transducer that has not been approved and licensed for use with the ultrasound system to which it
is connected, or if a licensed transducer is not properly connected, the corresponding transducer
identification data will not display on the LCD Display. Imaging will be disabled. Resolve this issue
before continuing use.
The ultrasound system and/or the transducer could be damaged if a nonapproved transducer is
connected.
Improper cleaning or disinfection of patient applied parts may cause permanent damage. Carefully
review the manufacturer’s directions for any component used with ZONARE ultrasound systems.
zonare assumes no liability with respect to single-use devices that are reused, reprocessed, or
