Cautions
Caution:
When using Site~Rite IV Probes in a sterile environment with a Site~Rite Disposable Needle
Guide, use only sterile plastic sheaths that are 1 mil (0.001 inch or 0.0254 mm) thick.
Caution:
Always inspect the ultrasound probe cap, cover and cable before using it with the
Site~Rite IV Scanner. Do not use the probe if the cap is cracked or damaged. Do not
allow the probe liquid or liquid vapor to contact the eyes, skin, clothing or room furnish-
ings. The fluid can be irritating to the skin and eyes and may damage furniture finishes. In
case of contact, immediately rinse the area with water.
Caution:
Do not scratch the acoustic window (or face) of the probe. Image quality may be
degraded if the probe acoustic window (or face) is scratched.
Caution:
Do not pull the cable to disconnect the probe-connector from the scanner. Pulling the
cable may destroy circuit continuity at the connector junction, damage the cable or
cable-connector or possibly damage circuit continuity within the scanner.
Caution:
Do not twist or bend the cable in excess of that required during normal use of the probe.
Excessive twisting or bending of the cable may cause failure or intermittent or unpredict-
able operation.
Caution:
Do not disinfect the probes using gas or heat methods. Never autoclave a probe.
Caution:
When disinfecting the probes with Cidex
*
, do not soak the probe cable, cable bend relief
or probe connector in Cidex
*
. Doing so damages the probe.
Caution:
Hot water (in excess of 113°F or 45°C) may damage the probe.
Caution:
Do not expose the probe to direct sunlight for an extended period of time so it does not
absorb excessive heat from the sun and damage the probe.
Caution:
Do not let liquid leak into the Site~Rite IV Scanner, Charge~Rite Battery Charger, Site~Rite
Mini Battery Charger, Battery Packs, A/C Adapter, Probe Connector or Probe Port.
Caution:
Before you connect the A/C adapter to or disconnect the A/C adapter from the
Site~Rite IV Scanner, verify that the A/C adapter is not plugged into a wall socket.
