
Other surfaces of the equipment, including the Touch Screen, can be cleaned using a
soft cloth dampened with a mild cleaning solution.

New hygiene cover must be provided for each new patient to prevent the
transmission of communicable disease.
Do not use aerosol or spray cleaning agents directly on the surface of
the equipment.
Condensation

Extreme fluctuation in temperature may cause condensation to develop inside the
equipment. Do not turn on the equipment until it has reached room temperature.
Cooling

Allow the proper amount of cool down time (for the X-ray tube to cool down) before
the acquisition of next image.
- Mode of operation: Continuous operation with intermittent loading - Needs
waiting time (at least 60 times the exposure time) before the next exposure
begins
- Column operation time: Max. 2 min. On / 18 min. Off (Ratio 1:9)

If the temperature inside the tube head reaches 60 °C (140 °F), X-ray exposure will
cease, and an error message will be displayed. Normal X-ray capabilities will resume
after the generator reaches 58 °C (136.4 °F).

If the fan (optional) is installed, it operates automatically when the temperature
surrounding the tube head reaches the pre-defined level: 40 °C (104 °F). The
setpoint temperature is configurable.
Turning the equipment on / Adjusting the height of the equipment

Do not position the patient near the equipment while it is initiating as the patient could
be injured if the equipment malfunctions.

Ensure that the patient is kept clear of the equipment while adjusting its height.
Emergency stop

If a problem occurs during image acquisition, press the red Emergency Stop Switch
to immediately stop all moving parts and cut off all power to the equipment.
(Emergency Stop Switch is located at the bottom of the Vertical Frame. Turn the
