Precautions about Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
WARNING
 Do not operate this equipment in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
environments.
 When conducting MRI test, remove the electrodes and sensors
connected to the patient (test subject).
The local heating caused by the induced electromotive force may cause
burn injury to the patient (subject). For details, refer to the operation
manual for the MRI testing device.
Electrosurgery Safety
WARNING
 When using electrosurgical instrument, make sure the contact between
the patient and the ground plate is secure. If the connection is
incomplete, the patient may suffer a burn at the electrode site.
 When using an electrosurgical instrument, it may misidentify noise from
the electrosurgical instrument as a heartbeat or arrhythmia.
Defibrillation Safety
WARNING
 Use only the lead cable specified by Fukuda Denshi when defibrillating.
If used by unspecified lead cable, the device may be damaged, resulting
in a safety hazard.
 When using the defibrillator, keep away from the electrodes or
medicament applied to the patient chest. If this is not possible, remove
the electrodes or medicament before using it.
If the defibrillator paddles are directly in contact with the electrodes or
medicament, an electrical shock may result from the discharged energy.
 When using the defibrillator, do not touch the patient and the metal part
of the device or cables. Electric shock may result from the discharged
energy.
