
Inspect the transducer and ZS3 System before each use. Inspect the
transducer face, housing, cable, connectors, and cases. Do not use the unit if
damage is detected.

Bent, broken, or missing pins on the transducer connector may cause poor
image quality, including possible mirror image artifact. Be sure to check pins
before connecting transducer to the Mindray/Zonare ultrasound system. If
pins are bent, broken, or missing, do not use the transducer and call
Mindray/Zonare Technical Support.

To avoid electrical shock, always unplug the ultrasound system AC power
cord from wall outlet before cleaning any part. Do not immerse the transducer
past the specified cleaning/disinfection level, as specified in Transducer
Cleaning and Disinfection. Do not immerse the transducer for longer than the
specified cleaning/disinfecting time. Do not use any transducer that has been
immersed beyond the maximum limit or has been soaked longer than the
maximum specified time.

Do not allow disinfectant to contact metal surfaces. Always use protective
eyewear and clothing when cleaning or disinfecting device.

Disinfectant wipes and topical spray products are not FDA cleared high-level
disinfectants and do not provide adequate protection should the transducer
become cross-contaminated.

The transducer must be removed from patient contact before application of a
high-voltage defibrillation.

The system is not intended for use in conjunction with high frequency (HF)
surgical equipment (tissue ablation devices). Do not use transducers
connected to the ultrasound system on patients while HF surgical devices are
in use.

If using relevant standards compliant equipment that was not provided by
Mindray/Zonare, it is required that total leakage currents be tested and
validated to be below the IEC 60601-1 chapter 16 limits.

This equipment must only be connected to a supply main with protective
earth.

Validate that measured and calculated results shown in Calc Package reports
reflect the clinical observations.

Auto-Dop Trace is intended to serve as an adjunct to the diagnostic process
in evaluating blood flow during PW Doppler examinations. When using the
Auto-Dop Trace feature, please evaluate the results to verify that you are in
agreement before committing the values to the Calc Report Package.

Always examine transducers for damage, such as cracks, splitting, holes, or
fluid leaks. If damage is evident, discontinue use of the transducer and
contact Mindray/Zonare.

Prior to initiating any disinfection process, disconnect the transducer from the
ultrasound system.

Ensure that any connected external equipment, such as external monitors,
printers and peripherals, comply with relevant standards such as IEC60601-1
and IEC60601-1-2.
