Protective Case
Due to the mechanical sensitivity of transducers, Siemens recommends that you always use
the transducer case when you ship a transducer or transport it from one place of examination to
another. The case is specially designed to protect the sensitive parts of the transducer. Be sure
that all parts of the transducer are properly placed inside the case before you close the lid.
Storage
Store transducers in a clean and dry environment. Extreme temperatures or humidity may
damage a transducer.

Repair
Do not attempt to repair or alter any part of the transducer. Contact your service representative
at Siemens immediately if a transducer appears to be damaged or malfunctions in any way.
