Disposal of Empty Gas Cylinder
1
Empty cylinder completely by pushing in the pin of the valve.
2
Once the cylinder is empty, drill a hole in the cylinder
CAUTION
Be careful to assure that the cylinder is completely empty before you try to drill the cylinder.
3
Write "Empty" on the cylinder and place it with your scrap metal or, if you do not collect scrap
metal for recycling, dispose of the cylinder.
Mounting Integrity Test
If at any time:
• one or more of the four of the quick mount screws are loose
• there is a clearance between the quick mount and the monitor bottom housing
• the G1/G5 mounting is unstable
remove the G1/G5 from the mount and disassemble the quick mount. Ensure that the threading of the
G1/G5 is not damaged.
If the quick mount is damaged, exchange the quick mount.
Ensure that all quick mount screws are tight (3.5 Nm). Test the quick mount by pressing the quick
release button. If it comes back out gradually and regularly, the quick mount is inserted correctly. If it
gets stuck, the quick mount is not centered and must be reinserted correctly.
If you notice any damage to the threading of the G1/G5 chassis, send the G1/G5 in for bench repair.
Reporting of Test Results
Philips recommends all test results are documented in accordance with local laws. Authorized Philips
personnel report the test result back to Philips. While hospital personnel (biomedical engineers or
technicians) do not need to report results to Philips, Philips recommends that they record and store the
test results in accordance with local laws.
The following table lists what to record after completing the tests in this chapter. Record the results in
the empty column in the Test and Inspection Matrix.
The following is a guide as to what your documentation should include:
• Identification of the testing body (for example, which company or department carried out the tests).
• Name of the person(s) who performed the tests and the concluding evaluation.
• Identification of the device(s) and accessories being tested (serial number, etc.).
