SE-301 Series Electrocardiograph User Manual
1) Main Unit
♦ Avoid excessive temperature, sunshine, humidity or dirt.
♦ Put the dustproof coat on the main unit after use and prevent shaking it violently when
moving it to another place.
♦ Prevent any liquid from seeping into the equipment, otherwise the safety and
performance of the electrocardiograph can not be guaranteed.
2) Patient Cable
♦ Integrity of the patient cable, including the main cable and lead wires, should be
checked regularly. Make sure that it is conductible.
♦ Do not drag or twist the patient cable with excessive stress while using it. Hold the
connector plug instead of the cable when connecting or disconnecting the patient cable.
♦ Align the patient cable to avoid twisting, knotting or crooking in a closed angle while
using it.
♦ Store the lead wires in a big wheel to prevent any people from stumbling.
♦ Once damage or aging of the patient cable is found, replace it with a new one
immediately.
3) Electrodes
♦ Electrodes must be cleansed after use and make sure there is no remainder gel on them.
♦ Keep suction bulbs of chest electrodes away from sunshine and excessive temperature.
♦ After long-term use, the surfaces of electrodes will be oxidized because of erosion and
other causes. By this time, electrodes should be replaced to achieve high-quality ECG
records.
The device and accessories are to be disposed of according to local regulations after
their useful lives. Alternatively, they can be returned to the dealer or the manufacturer for
recycling or proper disposal.
