5.4 Important information regarding Electro Magnetic
Compatibility (EMC)
With the increased number of electronic devices such as
PC's and mobile (cellular) telephones, medical devices in
use may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference from
other devices. Electromagnetic interference may result in
incorrect operation of the medical device and create a
potentially unsafe situation. Medical devices should also not
interfere with other devices.
In order to regulate the requirements for EMC (Electro
Magnetic Compatibility) with the aim to prevent unsafe
product situations, the EN60601-1-2 standard has been
implemented. This standard defines the levels of immunity
to electromagnetic interferences as well as maximum levels
of electromagnetic emissions for medical devices.
This medical device manufactured by OMRON Healthcare
conforms to this EN60601-1-2:2001 standard for both immu-
nity and emissions.
Nevertheless, special precautions need to be observed:
• Do not use mobile (cellular) telephones and other devices,
which generate strong electrical or electromagnetic fields,
near the medical device. This may result in incorrect opera-
tion of the unit and create a potentially unsafe situation.
Recommendation is to keep a minimum distance of 7 m.
Verify correct operation of the device in case the distance
is shorter.
Further documentation in accordance with EN60601-1-2:2001
is available at OMRON Healthcare Europe at the address
mentioned in this instruction manual. Docu mentation is also
