Measures to prevent electromagnetic interferences

The user can take the following measures to prevent electromagnetic interferences:

• Increase distance to the source of interference.
• Turn the device to change the angle of radiation.
• Connect the potential equalisation cable.
• Connect the device to a different mains connector.
• Only use original accessories (especially patient cables).
• Immediately replace defective cables, especially patient cables with defective

sheathing.

• Make sure the patient cable is securely screwed on.
• Observe the maintenance intervals as stated in 

section 10 Maintenance, page 44
