ABOUT ULTRASOUND THERAPY
•
Read, understand and practice the precautionary and operating instructions.
Know the limitations and hazards associated with using any ultrasound
device. Observe the precautionary and operational decals placed on the unit.
•
Do not operate this unit when connected to any unit other than DJO
devices. Do not operate the unit in an environment of shortwave diathermy
use.
•
The ultrasound generator should be routinely checked before each use to
determine that all controls function normally; especially that the intensity
control properly adjusts the intensity of the ultrasonic power output in a
stable manner. Also, determine that the treatment time control actually
terminates ultrasonic power output when the timer reaches zero.
•
DO NOT use sharp objects such as a pencil point or ballpoint pen to operate
the buttons on the control panel as damage may result.
•
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than
those specified herein may result in hazardous exposure to ultrasonic energy.
•
Handle the applicator with care. Inappropriate handling of the applicator
may adversely affect its characteristics.
•
Before each use inspect applicator for cracks, which may allow the ingress
of conductive fluid.
•
Inspect treatment head cables and associated connectors before each use.
•
The Intelect battery pack is designed for use only with Chattanooga Intelect
Mobile Stim, Combo, Laser, and Ultrasound systems.
