CAUTIONS
Accessories must be connected to the proper receptacle type. In particular, bipolar accessories
must be connected to the Bipolar Instrument receptacle only. Improper connection may result in
inadvertent generator activation or a Contact Quality Monitor alarm.
Set power levels to the lowest setting before testing an accessory.
NOTICE
During Bipolar Electrosurgery, do not activate the generator until the forceps have made contact
with the patient. Product damage may occur.
Fire / Explosion Hazards
WARNINGS
Explosion Hazard – Do not install the generator in the presence of flammable anesthetics, gases,
liquids, or objects.
Fire Hazard – Do not place active accessories near or in contact with flammable materials (such
as gauze or surgical drapes). Electrosurgical accessories that are activated or hot from use can
cause a fire. Use a holster to hold electrosurgical accessories safely away from personnel and
flammable materials.
Fire Hazard – Do not use extension cords.
Fire Hazard – For continued protection against fire hazard, replace fuses only with fuses of the
same type and rating as the original fuse.
Generator Electric Shock Hazards
WARNINGS
Connect the generator power cord to a properly grounded receptacle. Do not use power plug
adapters.
Do not connect a wet power cord to the generator or to the wall receptacle.
To allow stored energy to dissipate after power is disconnected (caps discharge) wait at least five
minutes before replacing parts.
Always turn off and unplug the generator before cleaning.
Do not touch any exposed wiring or conductive surfaces while the generator is disassembled and
energized. Never wear a grounding strap when working on an energized generator.
When taking troubleshooting measurements use appropriate precautions such as using isolated
tools and equipment, using the “one hand rule,” etc.
Potentially lethal AC and DC voltages are present in the AC line circuitry, high voltage DC circuitry,
and associated mounting and heat sink hardware described in this manual. These potentials are
not isolated from the AC line. Take appropriate precautions when testing and troubleshooting this
area of the generator.
High frequency, high voltage signals that can cause severe burns are present in the RF output
stage and in the associated mounting and heat sink hardware. Take appropriate precautions when
testing and troubleshooting this area of the generator.
