Overview
10-1-1 Periodic Maintenance Inspections
Having been determined by GE engineers that your Vivid S5 N or Vivid S6 N system has no high-
wearing components likely to fail due to frequent use, no Periodic Maintenance Inspections are
mandatory. However, some Customer Quality Assurance Programs may require additional tasks
and/or inspections to be performed at periods of frequency different from those listed in this manual.
10-1-2 Purpose of Chapter 10
This chapter describes the Care and Maintenance (PM) procedures for the Vivid™ S5 N and
Vivid™ S6 N Ultrasound system and its peripherals. These procedures are designed to protect your
investment in the Vivid S5 N or Vivid S6 N system, and are intended to
maintain the quality of system
performance.
After delivery and installation of the Vivid S5 N or Vivid S6 N ultrasound unit, your service representative
will contact you to schedule the first of several routine service visits. In addition to routine maintenance
by trained Field Service Engineers (FSEs), it is recommended that the procedures described in this
chapter be observed as part of your own internal routine maintenance program.
