•
Do not place liquids on or above the unit. Conductive fluids
seeping into the active circuit components may cause a
short-circuit, which could result in an electrical fire.
•
An electrical hazard may exist if any light, monitor or visual
indicator remains on after the unit is turned off.
Fuses blown within 36 hours of being replaced may indicate a
malfunctioning electrical circuit within the system. In this event,
the unit must be checked by GE Medical Systems service
personnel. No attempt should be made to replace the fuses
with others of a higher rating.
Smoke and fire hazard
The system must be supplied from an adequately rated
electrical circuit. The capacity of the supply circuit must be as
specified.
Biological hazard
For patient and personnel safety, beware of biological hazards
while performing transesophageal procedures. To avoid the
risk of disease transmission:
•
Use protective barriers (gloves and probe sheaths)
whenever necessary. Follow sterile procedures as
required.
•
Thoroughly clean probes and reusable accessories after
each patient examination and disinfect or sterilize as
needed. Refer to Chapter 11, "Probes" on page 535, for
probe use and care instructions.
•
Follow all in-house infection control policies as they apply
to personnel and equipment.
Pacemaker hazard
The possibility of the system interfering with pacemakers is
minimal. However, as this system generates high frequency
electrical signals, the operator should be aware of the potential
hazard this could cause.
CAUTION
Do not use this equipment if a safety problem is known to exist.
Have the unit repaired and performance verified by qualified
service personnel before returning to use.
