Electromagnetic Compatibility
Product has been tested for compliance with current regulatory standards regarding its capacity to block EMI
(electromagnetic interference) from external sources.
Some procedures can help reduce electromagnetic interferences:
• Use only Arjo cables and spare parts to avoid increased emissions or decreased immunity which can compromise the
correct functioning of the equipment.
• Make sure that other devices in patient-monitoring and/or life-support areas comply to accepted emissions standards.
Intended Environment: Home Healthcare Environment and Professional Healthcare facility environment.
Exceptions: HF Surgical Equipment and the RF Shielded room of an ME SYSTEM for magnetic resonance imaging.

Group 1
This equipment uses RF energy only for its internal functions.
Therefore its RF emissions are very low and are not likely to cause
any interference in nearby electronic equipment.

Warning:
Wireless communications equipment such as wireless computer network devices, mobile
phones, cordless telephones and their base stations, walkie-talkies, etc. can affect this equipment and
should be kept at least 1.5 m away from the equipment.
Warning:
Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided
because it could result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this equipment and the other
equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally.
