14 MAINTENANCE, CARE AND DISPOSAL OF THE UNIT
14.1 Maintenance of the unit including reusable accessories
Maintenance of the unit including the reusable accessories includes preventive and corrective
measures for servicing. Therefore established, regularly performed safety checks (see Chapter
9) represent preventive measures, while changes and repairs can be summarized under the category
of corrective maintenance. Through regular maintenance, the unit including the reusable
accessories should be kept within the required status specified in the technical data, and operational
readiness and safety are guaranteed for this until the next maintenance date.
14.1.1 Changes and repairs
Changes and repairs must not reduce the safety of the unit and its accessories for the patient, the
user and the surroundings. This is considered fulfilled if structural and functional features have
not been changed at the expense of safety (DIN 57 751-1/VDE 0751-1). Changes and repairs to
the unit, in consideration of the special safety requirements for high-frequency surgical units,
must only be performed by the manufacturer or by persons expressly authorized to do this by
him. If unauthorized persons perform improper changes or repairs to the unit or accessories, the
manufacturer assumes no liability. Additionally in this case, the guarantee claim becomes void.
14.2 Care of the unit
Effective protection of the unit from damage also includes, in addition to proper operation and
maintenance, the safe set-up of the unit. This also includes, in addition to safe fixation of the unit
to its base, its protection from moisture, contamination and contact with flammable or explosive
substances. To ensure good radiation of unit heat resulting from operation, air circulation around
the cooling fans and the heat sink must not be impeded.
14.3 Disposal of the unit
The unit can be disposed of at the end of its useful life as standard electronic scrap.
