Putting the Device Into Operation and Performance Check
227 490 02-C Marquette Responder® 3000 11
Warning
-
Equipment Failure — Magnetic and electrical
fields are capable of interfering with the
proper performance of the device. For this
reason make sure that all external devices op-
erated in the vicinity of the defibrillator com-
ply with the relevant EMC requirements. X-
ray equipment, MRI devices, radio systems,
and cellular telephones are a possible source
of interference as they may emit higher levels
of electromagnetic radiation.
Keep the defibrillator away from these devices
and verify the defibrillator performance before
use.
-
Equipment Failure — Similarly, the defibril-
lator may disturb equipment operating in its
vicinity when charging or delivering the
shock. Verify the performance of these devices
before use.
-
Suffocation Hazard — Dispose of the pack-
aging material, observing the applicable
waste-control regulations. Keep the packaging
material out of children's reach.
Caution
-
Equipment Damage, Shock Hazard — De-
vices intended for emergency application must
not be exposed to low temperatures during
storage and transport to avoid moisture con-
densation at the application site. Wait until all
moisture has vaporized before using the de-
vice.
-
Equipment Damage — Exercise great care
when using HF surgery equipment on the pa-
tient at the same as the defibrillator. As a gen-
eral rule, the distance between the ECG and
defibrillation electrodes and the HF surgery
electrodes should not be less than 15 cm. If
this is not ensured, disconnect the electrodes
and transducer leads while using the HF sur-
gery device.
-
Equipment Damage — Avoid defibrillating
repeatedly into open air or with the paddles
shorted together, because the device tempera-
ture may increase to an inadmissible level due
to the internal safety discharges.
