medical devices according to standard EN60601-1-2. This standard is designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a typical medical
installation. However, because of the proliferation of radio-frequency transmitting
equipment and other sources of electrical noise in the healthcare environments
(e.g., cellular phones, mobile two-way radios, electrical appliances), it is possible that
high levels of such interference due to close proximity or strength of source, may result
in disruption of performance of this device.
• WARNING: No modification of this equipment is allowed.
• WARNING: The touchscreen always needs to be in a stand while in operation!
