• Inspection of high-frequency output power in all of the modes
These technical safety inspections should be entrusted only to properly trained personnel. The
manufacturer assumes no responsibility for improper changes or repairs carried out on the unit or its
accessories by unauthorized persons, and the warranty of the unit expires immediately.
III. CAUTION AND WARNING

CAUTION AND WARNING
3.0.1
CAUTION:
Do not use the Surgitron in the presence of flammable anesthetics or other
flammable gases, flammable liquids, or flammable objects.
3.0.2
CAUTION:
Electrical shock hazard. Do not remove cover. Refer to authorized personnel for
service.
3.0.3
CAUTION:
Surgitron may present a hazard to patients with pacemakers. Consult qualified
medical personnel.
3.0.4
WARNING: Hazardous electrical output. This equipment is for use only by qualified personnel.
3.0.5
WARNING: Never increase the power settings without first checking both the active electrode
and the neutral plate.
3.0.6
WARNING: The manufacturer-supplied accessories should be used to ensure the proper
operation of safety monitoring circuit.
To ensure safe and reliable operation, the Surgitron unit and the relevant accessories should be
checked for wear and tear before operation by qualified personnel.
A maintenance contract with the manufacturer or one of its authorized service agents is
recommended after the warranty period.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please review the below cautionary instructions to reduce the incidence of accidental burns.
3.1.1
The neutral electrode should be reliably attached with its entire area attached to the patient’s body
as close as possible to the operating field.
3.1.2
The patient should not come into contact with metal parts which are earthed or which have
appreciable capacitance to earth. The use of antistatic sheeting is recommended for this purpose.
3.1.3
Skin to skin contact (for example, between the arms and the body of the patient) should be
avoided.
3.1.4
When the Surgitron is used simultaneously with physiological monitoring equipment on the same
patient, the monitoring electrodes should be placed as far as possible from the surgical electrodes.
Needle monitoring electrodes are not recommended. Monitoring systems incorporating high-
frequency current-limiting devices are recommended.
3.1.5
CAUTION: Interference caused by the Surgitron could adversely affect the operation of other
electronic equipment.
3.1.6
The cables to the surgical electrodes should be positioned in such a way that contact with the
patient or other leads is avoided. Temporarily unused active electrodes should be stored
segregated from the patient.
3.1.7
For surgical procedures where the HF current could flow through parts of the body having a
