1) When the probe is used for surgical or minimal‐invasive procedures, keep
electrocautery away from the probe. When defibrillator is used, take the probe out of
the body.
2) Keep the acoustic power low and minimize the ultrasound exposure time for the
examination of early pregnancy.
3) Do not expose the connector to water or other liquids. The connector is not
waterproof.
4) Do not hit or drop the probe. The probe is easily damaged by mechanical shock.
5) Do not use detergents and disinfectants other than listed in "8.3 Supplier's list".
6) Use a sterile probe cover to protect the acoustic lens against staining or damaging.
7) Clean, disinfect and sterilize the probe, Magnetic Sensor Attachment and Spacer for
EZU‐RV2S prior to the first use as they are not sterilized when delivered.
8) Use only the soft cloth or tissue to clean the acoustic lens.
9) Only a well‐trained physician should perform a biopsy.
10) Do not use the probe with other equipment except for those specifically approved in
this manual. Use with unapproved equipment can result in an electric shock, burn, or
other injury to the patient or operator and damage to the probe and other equipment.
11) Do not clean, disinfect or sterilize using procedures other than those specified in this
manual. Infection could result due to incomplete cleaning, disinfection or sterilization.
It can also result in damage to the probe or reduced performance.
