11.2.2 General guidelines for safe use
Do not drop or try to alter the shape of your headset.
Do not expose the headset to liquid or moisture. Unlike the Tempus, the headset has no protection against
ingress of solids or liquids.
Do not expose your headset to extreme temperatures. The temperature range of the headset is 10-40 C.
Do not try to disassembly your headset. Service and Maintenance can only be performed by RDT.
Do not let children play with the headset since it contains small parts that could become detached and
create a choking hazard.
WARNING
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Do not attempt to repair or
replace the battery.
CAUTION
If the battery is worn out, a new headset is required from RDT. Dispose of the headset in
accordance with local regulations. Do not dispose as household waste.
The user manual for the Sennheiser headset is supplied on the same CD-ROM as this manual. Details from
that manual have been reproduced in this section courtesy of Sennheiser

11.2.3 Disposal of batteries
Dispose of batteries in accordance with the applicable local regulations (these can vary from country to
country).
Note
In most countries, it is illegal to dispose of used batteries in residual waste (landfill). Users
are required to dispose of used batteries through the proper channels, for example through
not-for-profit organisations mandated by local governments.
11.3 Daily checks
RDT recommends that the following daily checks are performed on the Tempus, its cables and accessories:
 Ensure they are clean (with no fluid spills) and free of visible damage. Clean and replace as required.
 Check for signs of damage, excessive wear (cuts in insulation, fraying, broken wires, dirty or bent
connector pins). Replace if damaged.
 Ensure that the device is equipped with appropriate quantities of all disposable supplies (e.g. ECG
monitoring electrodes etc.).
 Ensure that any accessories or consumables are within the shelf life printed on their packages.
 Ensure that the internal printer (if fitted) contains sufficient paper for at least one day's use.
 Verify that a charged battery is fully inserted into the Tempus.
 Ideally ensure that a fully charged spare battery is available.
 Ensure the Tempus powers on and that all controls (as described in section 5.1) operate as described.
