NOTE: Hazards arising from software errors have been minimized. Hazard analysis was
performed to meet prEN1441: 1994.
NOTE: Each input and output connection of the monitor is electrically isolated. Connection of
this monitor to other equipment will not increase leakage current.
Oximetry
NOTE: Dyes introduced into the bloodstream, such as methylene blue, indocyanine green,
indigo carmine, and fluorescein, may cause an inability to determine accurate SpO
2
readings.
NOTE: Any condition that restricts blood flow, such as use of a blood pressure cuff or
extremes in systemic vascular resistance, may cause an inability to determine accurate pulse
and SpO
2
readings.
NOTE: Significant levels of dysfunctional hemoglobins, such as carboxyhemoglobin or
methemoglobin, will affect the accuracy of the SpO
2
measurement.
NOTE: SpO
2
measurements may be adversely affected in the presence of high ambient light. If
necessary, shield the sensor area (with a surgical towel, for example).
Respiration & Temperature
NOTE: Use only sensor supplied with, specifically intended for use with this device.
