WARNING!
Hazard to patient, malfunction, damage to device
► Set up the device so that it cannot fall on patients.
► Route the cables and tubes of the measurement accessory so that
the patient cannot become entangled or be strangled.
► The device has no alarm function. Never leave the patient unob-
served during a measurement.

rate is determined using either oxygen saturation or blood pressure.
