DISPOSAL OF BATTERIES AND ACCUMULATORS (DIRECTIVE 2006/66/EC)
In accordance with the European Directive 2006/66/EC,
batteries and accumulators are labeled to indicate that they
are to be collected separately and recycled at end of life.
The label on the battery may also include a chemical sym-
bol for the metal concerned in the battery (Pb for lead, Hg
for mercury and Cd for cadmium). Users of batteries and
accumulators must not dispose of batteries and accumula-
tors as unsorted municipal waste, but use the collection
framework available to customers for the return, recycling, and treatment of bat-
teries and accumulators. Participation is important to minimize any potential
effects of batteries and accumulators on the environment and human health due
to the potential presence of hazardous substances.
ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EN 60601-1-2:2007/IEC 60601-
1-2:2007)
The HF Series X-ray Generator is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment
specified below. As such, the generator must be installed and put into service accord-
ing to the information provided in the accompanying Service Manual.
The HF Series X-ray Generator complies with the requirements of applicable EMC
standards. Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect medical
electrical equipment. It is therefore recommended that the operation of equipment of
this type, such as mobile telephones, cordless microphones and other similar mobile
radio equipment, be restricted from the vicinity of this device.
Use of accessories, transducers and cables, other than those specified in the accom-
panying documents, may result in increased emissions or decreased immunity of the
equipment.
Guidance and manufacturer's declaration - electromagnetic emissions
The HF Series X-ray Generator is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified
below. The customer or the user of the HF Series X-ray Generator should assure that it is used
in such an environment.

RF emissions
CISPR 11 Group 1 The HF Series X-ray Generator uses
RF energy only for their internal
functions. Therefore, the RF emis-
sions are very low and are not likely
to cause any interference in nearby
electronic equipment.
