User Manual  

 

 

  

 

 16 of 19 

 

 

The user should not immerse the sensors or the 

biosignalsplux

 device, nor clean with liquid or 

abrasives. 
 

The user should handle the 

biosignalsplux

 device with caution and not expose the device or 

accessories to high accelerations and vibrations. 
 

biosignalsplux

 devices should not be used in patients with implanted electronic devices of any 

kind, including pace-makers, electronic infusion pumps, stimulators, defibrillators or similar. 
 

Do not apply electrodes over damaged or irritated skin. 
 

Do not use your device while charging its internal battery. 
 

 

6.2.

 

Transportation and Storage 

Please follow these recommendations to ensure safe transportation and storage of your 

biosignalsplux

 

equipment and sensors to prevent any damaging of your system. 
 
The 

biosignalsplux

 equipment and sensors should be stored in the original box in a dry place when 

those are not being used. 
 

 

Relative humidity: up to 95% with no condensation 

 

Ambient temperature: 10°C to 30°C 

 

Atmospheric pressure between 500hPa and 1060hPa 

 
Whenever the equipment needs to be transported, it should be placed in the original box, since this 
was designed and tested to ensure the equipment and accessories are securely stored. 
 
Take care while handling the transportation of the system and avoid dropping it, since the device is 
not shock-proof and should not be placed under stress or sudden acceleration. 
 

6.3.

 

Cleaning 

Please follow these cleaning instructions to prevent any damage of the system or the user because of 
conducting cleaning methods that may cause any damage. 
 

 

The 

biosignalsplux

  and  sensors  should  be  visually  checked  before  each  use  and  cleaning 

process to ensure that no mechanical damage occurred. 

 

 

The 

biosignalsplux

  equipment  and  sensors  (including  the  cables)  should  be  cleaned  with  a 

slightly damp cloth or suitable absorbent paper, ensuring no liquid enters the equipment of 
sensors.  Do  not  use  detergent  or  any  type  of  cleaning  liquid  as  these  may  damage  your 
equipment and/or sensor. 

 

 

Do not clean or re-use detection surfaces (electrodes). They are only suitable for single use, 
and should be disposed of after usage except indicated otherwise.
