Preparing the System
Moving the System
CAUTION
Before moving the system, ensure that the brakes are completely released by moving the
brake pedal to its middle position. Otherwise, the engaged brake pad can damage the rubber
casters on the wheels.
CAUTION
Ensure that the cables for all patient-applied parts are secure before moving the system. Use
the cable management system to ensure that transducer cables are protected from damage.
CAUTION
Do not roll the system over transducer cables or power cables.
CAUTION
When transporting the system in a vehicle, avoid exposing the monitor to direct sunlight, and
do not let the inside temperature of the vehicle exceed 65°C (149°F). Either of these
conditions can permanently damage the monitor.
