WARNING
3. When the battery’s useful life is over, contact the manufacturer or the local distributor
for disposal or dispose of the battery according to local regulations.
4. Remove the battery from the electrocardiograph when the electrocardiograph isn’t
used for a long time.
5. If the battery is stored alone and not used for a long time, we recommend that the
battery be charged at least once every 6 months to prevent overdischarge.
CAUTION
If the battery has been fully charged and requires recharging after printing only a few
ECGs, consider replacement.
13.3.2 Recorder Paper
NOTE
: Recorder paper provided by the manufacturer should be used. Other paper may
shorten the life of the thermal print head. The deteriorated print head may lead to
illegible ECG reports and block the advance of the paper.
Storage Requirements:
♦
Recorder paper should be stored in a dry, dark and cool area, avoiding excessive
temperature, humidity and sunshine.
♦
Do not put the recorder paper under fluorescence for a long time.
♦
Make sure that there is no polyvinyl chloride or other chemicals in the storage
environment, which will lead to color change of the paper.
♦
Do not overlap the recorder paper for a long time, or else the ECG reports may
trans-print each other.
13.3.3 Visual inspection
Perform a visual inspection of all equipment and peripheral devices daily. If you notice any items
that need repair, contact a qualified service engineer to make the repairs.
♦
Check the case and display screen for cracks or other damage.
♦
Regularly inspect all plugs, cords, cables, and connectors for fraying or other damage.
♦
Verify that all cords and connectors are securely seated.
♦
Inspect keys and controls for proper operation.
