due to electromagnetic disturbances, during the useful life are
• Ensure minimum distance, according to the table on page 68, of an RF emitting

The essential performance of the CardioMax is understood as the ANALYSIS of the
patient’s heart rhythm and the DEFIBRILLATION applied to the patient, depending
on the result of the analysis. The performance of the Ion PRO is designed and veri-
fied for the absence of an unacceptable risk.
User manual | Precautions, restrictions and warnings If performance is lost or
degraded due to electromagnetic disturbances, the ECG signal may be interfered
with and cardiac rhythm analysis may be compromised as long as electromagnetic
disturbances persist.
WARNING: Portable RF communication equipment (including peripherals
such as cables and external antennas) should not be used within 30 cm
of any part of CardioMax, including cables specified by Instramed. Failure
to do so may cause performance degradation.
