Combinations with other systems

To ensure the required operational safety, only products and components
expressly approved by Siemens AG, Medical Solutions may be used in combina-
tion with this product.
For further details regarding the attachment of non-Siemens products to the
image intensifier see
( Page 25).
Additional components placed into the beam path (e.g. positioning aids) will
attenuate radiation and can degrade image quality.

Attachment of dedicated options

The attachment of certain (dedicated) options is permitted only if the following
conditions are complied with:

General safety requirements

The use of accessories that do not comply with the relevant safety requirements
of this system can result in a reduced safety level of the combined system.
When choosing accessories, the following aspects must be considered in partic-
ular:
Use of accessories close to the patient.
Proof that the accessories have been safety tested according to the applicable
IEC 60601-1 guideline and/or the IEC 60601-1-1 harmonized national stan-
dard.

Tilting resistance; mechanical strength; central ray migration

To comply with the tilting resistance, mechanical strength and the central ray
migration standards (IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-2-32, UL 60601-1, 4 times load,
IEC 60601-1-3), the additional weight attached to the image intensifier must not
