 Some of these EMI sources (mostly RF emitters) may not be visible and the device can potentially be
exposed to fields from these EMI sources without the user’s awareness.
 If you identify or suspect that external RF sources or other equipment are influencing device operation
(from known or unknown sources), try to (as applicable) increase the pump’s distance from the EMI
source, re-orient the device, or relocate the device,
The EMC limits for the Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC (EN301489-1/-17 IEC/EN 60601-1-2:2014) are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a typical home use installation. The
equipment generates, and can radiate, radio frequency energy, and if not used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to other devices in the vicinity. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference
with other devices, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
 Reorient or relocate the receiving device
 Increase the distance separating between the equipment parts
 Consult the manufacturer or field service technician for help
Electromagnetic Safety Precautions
 Do not expose the pump to therapeutic levels of ionizing radiation, as permanent damage to the pump
electronic circuitry may occur. Remove the pump from the patient during therapeutic radiation sessions.
 Do not expose the pump to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) equipment and do not use the pump in
the vicinity of it, as magnetic fields may adversely affect the operation of the pump. Remove the pump
from the patient during MRI procedures, and keep it at a safe distance from magnetic energy.
