Electromagnetic interferences
This medical equipment is approved, in terms of the prevention
of radio wave interference, to be used in hospitals, clinics and
other institutions which are environmentally qualified. The use of
this equipment in an inappropriate environment may cause
some electronic interference to radios and televisions around
the equipment.
Ensure that the following is provided for the new system:
•
Take precautions to ensure that the console is protected
from electromagnetic interference.
Precautions include:
•
Operate the console at least 15 feet away from motors,
typewriters, elevators, and other sources of strong
electromagnetic radiation.
•
Operation in an enclosed area (wood, plaster or
concrete walls, floors and ceilings) helps prevent
electromagnetic interference.
