24 Safety
When more than one monitor is used in the one environment, each
monitor should always be connected to the same patient cables and
the same power adapter. Faults can therefore be located and remedied
faster.
3.6 Power supply reliability
Before first using VitaGuard® for monitoring, familiarize yourself
with the section “Power supply” on page 31. Monitoring is safe-
guarded only when the power supply is in perfect operating order.
CAUTION: Danger of electric shock! Never open the external power
adapter or the connecting cable.
Exclusively the NA 3000-2 approved for VitaGuard® must be used as
the external power adapter.
VitaGuard® is usually delivered with the external power adapter for
European supply networks. For other supply networks, use only the
plug adapters available from getemed AG.
Do not use the external power adapter in sockets that can be
switched off or dimmed.
When the VitaGuard® external power adapter is plugged into a
multiple socket outlet, only the modem may be connected to this
outlet simultaneously.
When an extension cable is used with a multiple socket outlet, this
outlet must not lie on the floor. Otherwise water may penetrate the
outlet and damage the monitor.
The external power adapter and the power outlet must be free of
damage.
Never use the external power adapter’s cable to lift VitaGuard®.
Stop using the external power adapter when it has fallen or been
dropped.
