Safety precautions
External equipment intended for connection to signal input, signal
output, or other connectors, must comply with the relevant IEC
standard (EN/IEC 60601-1 series for medical electrical equipment). In
addition, all such combinations (systems) must comply with the
standard IEC 60601-1-1, Safety requirements for medical electrical
systems.
Equipment not complying to IEC 60601 must be kept outside the
patient environment, as defined in the standard as at least 1.5 meters
from the patient or the patient support.
Any person who connects external equipment to signal input, signal
output, or other connectors has formed a system and is therefore
responsible for the system to comply with the requirements of IEC
60601-1-1. If in doubt, speak with a qualified technician.
GROUNDING RELIABILITY CAN ONLY BE ACHIEVED WHEN EQUIPMENT IS
CONNECTED TO AN EQUIVALENT RECEPTABLE MARKED “HOSPITAL ONLY” OR
“HOSPITAL GRADE.”
Safety tips
• Never open the display case, even when the power is off. Do not drop or
push objects into the display case. Dangerous voltage inside may cause
electric shock or death.
• Use the grounded power supply and the video cable supplied by Planar.
Replace the power supply or video cable if damaged.
• Be sure the display is electrically grounded. Connect the third grounding
pin on the US power cord to a grounded outlet. The European power
cord does not have a third grounding pin, but it must be plugged into a
grounded outlet. If the power cord connects directly into the computer,
make sure the computer is grounded.
• Keep the display dry if it is part of a surgical system. The display lacks
protection against liquids or spills.
• Do not plug the power supply into an overloaded AC outlet or extension
cord. Overloaded AC outlets and cords can result in electric shock or fire.
• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet during thunderstorms.
• Do not place magnetic devices, such as motors, near the display.
• In locations where 240V outlets are used, use the E4c display only on
a center-tapped, 240V, single-phase supply.
