1.5. Safety Hazards
Potential hazards exist in the use of medical electronic devices and X-Ray systems. Operators using the

provided.
The following pages describe hazardous and potentially hazardous conditions, and how to adequately
protect yourself and others from possible injury.
1.5.1. Safety Hazard Alerts
There are three hazard classifications, which are denoted and prioritized by the alert words:
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could result in
death or serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, may result in
moderate to minor injury, equipment damage or loss of data.
NOTE is given in situation requiring special attention.
1.5.2. Explosion
The system is not designed for use in explosive atmosphere (e.g. anesthetic gases).
If an abnormal condition occurs, such as the room fills with flammable gas, steps must be taken to prevent
the gas from coming in contact with the equipment. Follow these guidelines:
Do not turn the system off or unplug it from the AC receptacle.
Do not operate any other electrically powered equipment.
