NOTE
FOR CANADIAN USERS:
All patients must be provided with a shielded apron for gonad protection
and a thyroid shield. The use of a thyroid shield is especially important
in children. The shielded apron and thyroid shield should have a lead
equivalence of at least 0.25 mm on both sides (front and back of the patient).
NOTE
If the X-ray unit has been stored at temperatures under +10°C for more than
a few hours, time must be allowed for the unit to reach room temperature
before turning it on.
NOTE
Ensure efficient air conditioning in the X-ray room. It is recommended to
keep the room temperature between +20°C and +25°C at all times.
NOTE
If exposures are taken in rapid succession, the X-ray tube may overheat and
a cooling time will flash on the control panel. The cooling time indicates the
delay before the next exposure can be taken.
NOTE
If the X-ray system is not connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply
(UPS), switch the X-ray unit off and disconnect the PCs from the mains
during lightning storms.
NOTE
