12. After each use, thoroughly clean unit and
accessories (See "3.1 Cleaning and Steril-
izing" on page 22 ).
13. Disconnect product prior to applying car-
diac defibrillation to patient.
14. Equipment grounding is vital for safe oper-
ation. Plug power cord into a properly
earthed mains supply outlet whose voltage
and frequency characteristics are compati-
ble with those listed on unit or in this man-
ual. Do not use plug adapters or extension
cords; such devices defeat the safety ground
and could cause injury.
15. External equipment, that will be connected
to signal input and signal output ports or
other connectors, shall comply with rele-
vant IEC standard (i.e., IEC 950 for IT
equipment and IEC 601 series for medical
electrical equipment). In addition, all such
combinations - systems - shall comply with
the standard IEC 601-1-1 (Safety require-
ments for medical electrical systems).
Any person who connects external
equipment to signal input and signal output
ports or other connectors has formed a
system and is therefore responsible for the
system to comply with the requirements of
IEC 601-1-1. If in doubt, contact a qualified
technician or your local representative.
16. This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for medical
devices to the IEC 60601-1-2 and
EN60601-1-2. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harm-
ful interference in a typical medical instal-
lation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful inter-
ference to other device(s) in the vicinity.
However, there is no guarantee that interfer-
ence will not occur in a particular installa-
tion. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to other devices, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to cor-
rect the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
(a) Reorient or relocate the receiving
device.
(b) Increase the separation between the
equipment.
(c) Connect the equipment into an outlet
on a circuit different from that to which
the other devices are connected.
(d) Consult the manufacturer or field
service technician for help.
This unit was not evaluated for use with
electrosurgical devices which access the
site via the same endoscope as the light
source and camera. The unit must be re-
evaluated prior to use with electrosurgical
devices when they will operate through the
same endoscope as the light source and
camera.
