• Precautions concerning clinical examination techniques:
– This system must be used only by qualified medical professionals.
– This operator’s manual does not describe clinical examination
techniques. The clinician should select the proper examination
techniques based on specialized training and clinical experience.
• Malfunctions due to radio wave:
– If a radio wave emitting device is used in the proximity of this system, it
may interfere with operations. Do not use or take any devices
transmitting RF signals (such as cellular phones, transceivers and radio
controlled products) in the room placing the system.
– If a person brings a device that generates radio waves near the
system, ask him/her to immediately turn OFF the device.
• Precautions concerning movement of the system:
– When you place the system on the mobile trolley and move them
together, you must secure all objects on the mobile trolley to prevent
them from falling. Otherwise you should separate the system from the
mobile trolley and move them individually.
When you have to move the system with the mobile trolley upward or
downward the stairs, you must separate them first and then move them
individually.
– Object placed on the monitor may fall and injure an individual when
moving.
– Confirm that there is no peripheral device connected to the system
before moving the system. Otherwise, peripheral device may fall and
injure an individual.
• If the circuit protector is tripped, it indicates that the system or a peripheral
device was improperly shut down and the system is unstable. You cannot
repair the system under this circumstance and must call the Mindray
Customer Service Department or sales representative.
• There is no risk of high-temperature burns during normal ultrasound
examinations. It is possible for the surface temperature of the transducer to
exceed the body temperature of a patient due to environmental
temperature and exam type combinations. Do not apply the transducer to
the same region on the patient for a long time. Apply the transducer only for
a period of time required for the purpose of diagnosis.
• Do not use the system to examine a fetus for a long period of time.
• Except accessories that have been stated as sterile, the system and its
accessories are not disinfected or sterilized prior to delivery. The operator
is responsible for the cleaning and disinfection of probes and sterilization of
biopsy brackets according to the manuals, prior to the use. All items must
be thoroughly processed to completely remove harmful residual chemicals,
