If any defects are observed or malfunctions occur, DO NOT
operate the equipment, and inform a qualified service person.
Examine the following on a monthly basis (or whenever there is
a reason to assume that any issue may have occurred):
•
Connectors on cables, for any mechanical defects
•
Entire length of electrical and power cables, for cuts or
abrasions
•
Equipment, for loose or missing hardware
•
Control panel and keyboard for defects
•
Wheels for proper locking operation
To avoid electrical shock hazard, do not remove panels or
covers from the system. This servicing must be performed by
qualified service personnel. Failure to do so could cause
serious injury.
Effective Disinfection is always a balance between safe
inactivation of infectious agents and undesirable side effects.
Due to the generally uneven and irregular surface of Ultrasound
consoles, a comprehensive surface disinfection process cannot
be recommended by the manufacturer.
The ultrasound system requires regular care and maintenance
to function safely and properly. The following components
should be cleaned.
Weekly:
•
Main display and touch panel
