►
The device is equipped with two casters to facilitate transport over short
distances.
1. Disconnect the power supply unit from the socket.
2. Tilt the device until it can be moved freely on the casters.
3. Transport the device to its new location.
4. Set the device in an upright position.
5. Plug the power supply unit into a power supply socket.
In order to achieve accurate measured results, the floor at the setup location
must be level and stable. Soft floors (wooden hallways, for example) give
under the patient's weight and falsify the measured result.
Place the "Quick guide to measuring" poster in a clearly visible location
close to the device.
Disinfect the following components before initial commissioning as de-
scribed in the section entitled "Disinfecting" on page 98:
– Column and multifunctional display
– Ultrasound head
– Column elements
CAUTION!
Risk of injury and damage to device
The device must be tilted for transport. The significant height of the
assembled device can lead to injuries and damage to the device.
►
Ensure that there is no-one else in the immediate vicinity.
►
Ensure that there are no objects in the immediate vicinity.
