WARNING:
Operation in unsafe condition includes the risk of radiological
exposure and injury of the patient and/or the operator. The
customer is responsible to ensure the fault-free condition of the
equipment.
WARNING:
Wear of equipment due to excessively long intervals between
service may lead to personal injury and property damage due to
worn and unsafe parts.
WARNING:
If lubricating oil is not applied periodically (once a year), the
tabletop may fail to function.
WARNING:
Incorrect or defective spare parts may adversely affect the safety
of the system and lead to damages, malfunctions or total failure.
Use only original spare parts provided by the manufacturer.
WARNING:
Improper changes, additions, maintenance or repair of the
equipment or the software can lead to personal injury, electrical
shock and damage to the equipment. Safety is only guaranteed
when changes, additions, maintenance or repairs are carried out
by an Agfa certified field service engineer. A non certified
engineer performing a modification or service intervention on a
medical device, acts on his own responsibility and makes the
warranty void.
CAUTION:
Keep the equipment and its environment clean, to prevent dust
or dirt to accumulate.
CAUTION:
In case of functional defects or other deviations from normal
operation behavior the unit has to be switched off immediately
and the service to be informed. The equipment must only be put
back into operation when the fault has been repaired.
