WARNING and CAUTION messages must be observed. To avoid the
possibility of injury, observe the following precautions during the
operation of the instrument.
1.4.1 Warnings
For using safely:
FTS-3 is provided for the use of qualified physicians or personnel
professionally trained.
FTS-3 is not intended for use in intensive care units (ICU), operating
rooms or for home use
No modification of this system is allowed.
Do not switch on FTS-3 until all cables have been properly connected
and verified.
EXPLOSION HAZARD - Do not use FTS-3 in the presence of flammable
anesthetics or other materials.
SHOCK HAZARD - The power receptacle must be a three-wire grounded
outlet. Never try to adapt the three-prong plug to fit a two-slot outlet.
A hospital grade outlet is required. If the outlet has only two slots,
make sure that it is replaced with a three-slot grounded outlet before
attempting to operate FTS-3.
The protective earth conductor is required for EMC purposes. It has no
protective function against electric shock. Double and/or reinforced
insulation protects this device against electric shock
Multiple portable socket-outlets shall not be placed on the floor.
Additional multiple socket-outlet or extension cord must not be
connected to the system.
The multiple portable socket-outlet provided with the system shall
be only used for supplying power to equipment which is intended to
form part of the system. If an electrical device that does not belong to
the system is plugged into the socket, the total power may exceed the
maximum load of the separating transformer causing high temperature
and fire. Enclosure leakage current within the system may exceed the
standard limit, which may lead to an electrical risk
