CAUTION: Equipment intended to be connected to signal input/signal
output ports should comply with applicable electrical safety standards to
further minimize the risk of electric shock. Only devices that have been
configured to operate with Root may function properly when connected.
CAUTION: Only use the AC power cable provided by Masimo. Using a
different AC power cable could cause damage to Root. Check the power
cord and plug to ensure that it is intact and undamaged.
CAUTION: To avoid risk of electrical shock, this equipment must only be
connected to a supply mains with a protective earth connection. Do not
under any circumstances remove the grounding conductor from the power
plug.
CAUTION: Use a grounded outlet for proper equipment grounding. A
hospital-grade outlet is required.
CAUTION: Do not place Root where the appliance inlet or the AC power
plug cannot be readily disconnected.
Note: Disconnect the device from AC mains by removing the AC power cord
connector from the device inlet.
Note: If there is any doubt about the integrity of the protective earth
conductor arrangement, operate Root on internal battery power until the
AC power supply protective conductor is fully functional.
Note: Do not monitor more than a single patient at a time on Root.
Note: It is recommended that Root is attached to an AC power source when
it is not in use to ensure that the battery remains fully charged.
Note: For medical technologies that require AC power, the battery should
be adequately charged to ensure backup power in case of AC power
disruption.
