3.3 Turning On/Off Power
3.3.1 Check before Power On
It is recommended to check the followings before power on the monitor:

Environment
If other electric devices, such as electrosurgical unit, ultrasound, X-ray machine, are
around the monitor, power off those devices if the measurement is interfered.

Power Supply
Check that power supply specification is met and the power cord is securely
connected if mains power is used. Use only power socket that is properly grounded.
Check that a battery is installed and fully charged if battery is used.

Connecting Accessories
Verify that the connection of all accessories to monitor is secured.
3.3.2 Turning Power On
Once the monitor is installed, you can get ready for measurement.
1. Check the monitor for any mechanic damage, and make sure that all external cables,
plug-ins and accessories are properly connected.
2. Check the power supply specification is met if mains power is used. Only use a power
outlet that is properly grounded.
3. Plug the power cord into the AC power source. If you run the monitor on battery
power, ensure that the battery is sufficiently charged.
4. Press the power on/off switch on the monitor’s front.
The monitor will perform alarm system self-test during startup. After pressing the power
on/off button, the system sounds a beep, and the alarm lamp simultaneously turns yellow,
then red, and then turns off, with the start-up screen being shown. Then the start-up
screen disappears. The alarm system self-test succeeds. The monitor enters the normal
monitoring screen.
For further testing of individual measurement alarms, perform the measurement on
yourself (for example SpO
2
or CO
2
) or use a simulator. Adjust alarm limits and check that
appropriate alarm behavior is observed.
