Location Requirements

3-2
Installation: Location Requirements
Choose a location that affords an unobstructed view of the display
and easy access to the operating controls.
To optimize battery life and performance, choose a location that does
NOT artificially increase the ambient temperature surrounding the
monitor.
Do not place the monitor near a heat vent or near heat-
generating equipment, such as computer monitors.
Avoid placing the monitor in corners where the airflow may be
restricted.
Set up the device in a location that affords sufficient ventilation. The
ventilation openings of the device must not be obstructed (by
external equipment, walls or blankets, for instance). The ambient
conditions specified in the technical specifications must be ensured
at all times.
The monitor is designed to comply with the requirements of EN
60601.
WARNING
When connected to AC power, the monitor must be
connected to a properly installed electrical outlet with
protective earth contacts only. If the installation does not
provide for a protective earth conductor, disconnect the
monitor from the power line and operate it on battery
power.
WARNING
For safety reasons, all connectors for patient cables and
sensor leads are designed to prevent inadvertent
disconnection, should someone pull on the leads. Do not
route cables in a way that they may present a stumbling
hazard. Do not install the monitor in a location where it
may drop on the patient. All consoles and brackets used
must have a raised edge.
