Use Instructions
10
• Keep the probe away from cats, dogs and other pets. If you suspect
any animal contamination or damage to the probe, stop using the
system, as this may increase the likelihood of infection.
• Do not disassemble any parts of the PeriCoach system nor use the
system if it has been reassembled by any person other than a
technician authorised by the manufacturer.
• Do not use the PeriCoach probe for more than 30 minutes if the
ambient temperature is greater than 38°C. If the PeriCoach probe
becomes too hot for comfort at any time, cease using the probe until
it is at a comfortable temperature.
• On rare occasions the probe may cause skin irritation. If that occurs,
cease using the probe and seek advice from your doctor.
• It is recommended to use a small amount of water-based lubricant
with the probe.
• No modifications to any item in the PeriCoach system should be
made. Unauthorised modifications will render your warranty null and
void. They might also lead to injury to yourself or damage to the
equipment.
Other precautions

of the probe.
• Avoid dust by storing the device in its case between uses.
• Do not immerse any part of the system other than the probe in water.
Only the probe is waterproof. The charging case and USB cable are
not waterproof.
