CAUTION
To reduce the risks associated with infection follow all cleaning and disinfecting instructions
included in this manual. Establish and follow a cleaning and disinfecting schedule.
To reduce the risks associated with very strong electromagnetic fields avoid using the
stethoscope near strong radio frequency signals or portable and/or mobile RF devices. If you hear
sudden or unexpected sounds, move away from any radio transmitting antennas.
To reduce the risks associated with sharp edges make sure that the soft sealing eartips are
snapped firmly into position as shown in this manual. Use only Littmann replaceable eartips.
To reduce the risks associated with an incorrect result store and operate this stethoscope only
as instructed in this manual. As there is no acoustic (non-amplified) mode available with this
stethoscope, replace the battery within two hours of the battery life icon beginning to flash in the
LCD display. Replace battery with only type AA. Also, do not immerse the stethoscope in a liquid
or subject it to any sterilization processes.
To reduce the risk associated with an electrical shock do not use the stethoscope on patients
without the stethoscope's diaphragm cover in place
NOTICE
The Model E3200 Electronic Stethoscope contains a Bluetooth wireless data link. This radio
frequency data link operates at a frequency of 2.4 GHz using GFSK modulation and with a
maximum transmit power of 230 microwatts (0.000230 watts). The maximum radio frequency field
strength generated by the stethoscope is below three volts per meter, a level that is considered
safe to use with other medical devices. However, if electromagnetic interference is encountered
due to the Bluetooth wireless data link, immediately move the stethoscope away from that device
and/or turn the Bluetooth feature OFF.
To reduce the risks associated with environmental contamination follow applicable
regulations when disposing of this stethoscope. Properly dispose of, or recycle, spent batteries.
No modification of this equipment is allowed. Use only authorized 3M service personnel to
repair this stethoscope. Read, understand, and follow all the safety information on the battery
package.
