4 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

User's Manual (3D Imaging)
WARNING
The following safety precautions must be observed in
order to avoid the risk of personal injury or damage to
the X-ray unit.
CAUTION
FOR US USERS:
Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the
order of a health care professional.
CAUTION
This X-ray unit may be dangerous to both patient and
operator unless safe exposure values are used and
correct operating procedures are observed.
CAUTION
It is very important that the place where the X-ray unit
is to be used and the position from which the user is
to operate the X-ray unit are correctly shielded.
Since radiation safety requirements vary from country
to country and state to state it is the responsibility of
the user to ensure that all local safety requirements
are met.
CAUTION
The patient positioning lights are laser lights. Do not
stare into the laser beam.
CAUTION
Do not drop the sensor. Planmeca limited warranty
does not cover damage which is due to misuse, e.g.
dropping the sensor, neglect, or any cause other than
ordinary use.
If you have any reason to believe that the sensor
might be faulty, take a test exposure before taking a
patient exposure.
CAUTION
If an exposure is interrupted (e.g. exposure button is
released or emergency stop button activated), the
patient must be guided away from the X-ray unit
before the C-arm is moved.
CAUTION
Do not connect items which are not specified as part
of the system.
CAUTION
Do not touch an electrical connector and the patient
at the same time.
CAUTION
If the X-ray unit shows any signs of oil leakage,
switch the X-ray unit off and contact your service
technician for help.
