WARNING: To ensure patient safety, do not place the pulse
oximeter in any position that might cause it to fall on the patient.
WARNING: As with all medical equipment, carefully route
patient cabling to reduce the possibility of patient entanglement
or strangulation.
WARNING: Ensure that the speaker is clear of any obstruction.
Failure to do so could result in an inaudible alarm tone.
WARNING: Disconnect the N-600x and Nellcor O M sensor
XI AX
from the patient during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
scanning. Objects containing metal can become dangerous
projectiles when subjected to the strong magnetic fields created
by MRI equipment. Also, induced currents could potentially
cause burns.
WARNING: To ensure accurate performance and prevent device
failure, do not subject the N-600x to extreme moisture, such as
direct exposure to rain. Such exposure may cause inaccurate
performance or device failure.
WARNING: Do not use an N-600x pulse oximeter, O M sensor,
XI AX
cables, or connectors that appear damaged.
