WARNING
9 Magnetic and electrical fields are capable of interfering with the proper performance
of the device. For this reason make sure that all external devices operated in the
vicinity of the monitor comply with the relevant EMC requirements. X-ray equipment
or MRI devices are a possible source of interference as they may emit higher levels of
electromagnetic radiation.
10 Route all cables carefully to avoid possible entanglement, apnea, or electrical
interference. For the device mounted over the patient, sufficient precautionary
measures should be taken to prevent it from falling on the patient.
11 Devices connecting with monitor should be equipotential.
12 Accessory equipment connected to the analog and digital interfaces must be certified
according to the respective IEC/EN standards (e.g. IEC/EN 60950 for data processing
equipment and IEC/EN 60601-1 for medical equipment). Furthermore all
configurations shall comply with the valid version of the standard IEC/EN 60601-1.
Therefore anybody, who connects additional equipment to the signal input or output
connector to configure a medical system, must make sure that it complies with the
requirements of the valid version of the system standard IEC/EN 60601-1. If in doubt,
consult our technical service department or your local distributor.
13 Only patient cable and other accessories supplied by EDAN can be used. The
performance and electric shock protection cannot be guaranteed, and the patient may
be injured otherwise. Prior to use, check if the casing of a disposable accessory is
intact. Do not use it if its casing is damaged.
14 When interfacing with other equipment, a test for leakage current must be performed
by qualified biomedical engineering personnel before using with patients.
15 If several items of medical equipment are interconnected, pay attention to the sum of
the leakage currents, otherwise it may cause shock hazard. Consult your service
personnel.
16 During working process, if the power supply is off and there is no battery for standby,
the monitor will be off. Patient type will be restored to adult by default, and the monitor
is in status with no patients. The settings configured by the user can be stored, and
settings not configured by user keep no change. That is, the last settings used will be
recovered when the power is restored.
17 The device and accessories are to be disposed of according to local regulations after
their useful lives. Alternatively, they can be to the dealer or the manufacturer for
recycling or proper disposal. Batteries are hazardous waste. Do NOT dispose them
together with house-hold garbage. At the end of their life hand the batteries over to
the applicable collection points for the recycling of waste batteries. For more detailed
information about recycling of this product or battery, please contact your local Civic
Office, or the shop where you purchased the product.
