Patient Monitor User Manual
18 The monitor is equipped with Wi-Fi to receive RF electromagnetic energy. Therefore,
any other equipment complying with CISPR radiation requirements may also interfere
with the wireless communication and make it interrupted.
19 Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system for patient monitoring. Adjustment
of alarm volume to a low level or off during patient monitoring may result in a hazard
to the patient. Remember that the most reliable method of patient monitoring
combines close personal surveillance with correct operation of monitoring equipment.
20 Wireless LAN equipment contains an intentional RF radiator that has the potential of
interfering with other medical equipment, including patient implanted devices. Be sure
to perform the electromagnetic compatibility test, before installation and any time new
medical equipment is added to the Wireless LAN coverage area.
21 When interfacing with other equipment, a test for leakage current must be performed
by qualified biomedical engineering personnel before using with patients.
22 If several items of medical equipment are interconnected, pay attention to the sum of
the leakage currents, otherwise it may cause shock hazard. Consult your service
personnel.
23 During monitoring, if the power supply is off and there is no battery for standby, the
monitor will be off. The settings configured by the user (except Display settings in
12-lead/5-lead) can be stored, and settings not configured by user keep no change.
That is, the last settings used will be recovered when the power is restored.
24 The device and accessories are to be disposed of according to local regulations after
their useful lives. Alternatively, they can be returned to the dealer or the manufacturer
for recycling or proper disposal. Batteries are hazardous waste. Do NOT dispose
them together with house-hold garbage. At the end of their life hand the batteries over
to the applicable collection points for the recycling of waste batteries. Inappropriate
disposals of waste may contaminate the environment. For more detailed information
about recycling of this product or battery, please contact your local Civic Office, or the
shop where you purchased the product.
25 The packaging is to be disposed of according to local or hospital's regulations;
otherwise, it may cause environmental contamination. Place the packaging at the
place which is inaccessible to children.
26 After defibrillation, the ECG display recovers within 10 seconds if the correct
electrodes are used and applied based on the manufacturers' instructions.
27 Clinical decision making based on the output of the device is left to the discretion of
the provider.
28 Do not service or maintain the monitor or any accessory which is in use with the
patient.
