• High-intensity extreme lights (such as pulsating strobe lights)
directed on the sensor, may not allow the pulse oximeter to obtain
vital sign readings.
• When using the Maximum Sensitivity setting, performance of the
"Sensor Off" detection may be compromised. If the device is in this
setting and the sensor becomes dislodged from the patient, the
potential for false readings may occur due to environmental "noise"
such as light, vibration, and excessive air movement.
• Do not loop the patient cabling into a tight coil or wrap around the
device, as this can damage the patient cabling.
• Additional information specific to the Masimo sensors compatible
with the pulse oximeter, including information about parameter/
measurement performance during motion and low perfusion, may
be found in the sensor's directions for use (DFU).
• Cables and sensors are provided with X-Cal
mize the risk of inaccurate readings and unanticipated loss of patient
monitoring. Refer to the Cable or Sensor DFU for the specified dura-
tion of the patient monitoring time.

The symbol for the measurement method flashes (in this case: Normal)
until a valid measured value is obtained.
The SpO value is displayed.
