2.1
General
This instrument can only be used for the purpose as described in this manual.
The examination of the patients, the operation of the instrument and the interpretation of the results can only be performed by
persons who are experienced and who have been trained accordingly.
The instrument is to be installed on the height-adjustable table and employed in a dimly lit room in a medical area.
Keep this User's Manual there where persons who operate the instrument can consult it at all times. Guarantee claims can only
be valid when the instructions in the User's Manual are followed.
The doctor or operator is to instruct the patient in the safety instructions and check that they are observed.
Make sure that the instrument is connected only to the power source as defined on the perimeter rating plate. The on/off switch
does not separate the perimeter from the power lines. Before maintenance or cleaning work is performed, the power cord must
be removed from the wall socket.
Removal of the housings and repairs to the instrument are permitted only by trained and authorized technicians. Considerable
danger for the operator and patients can be caused by improper repairs.
Only original replacement parts and original accessories are permitted for repairs.
2.2
Instrument Transportation
Transport the instrument over large distances in the original packing. For short distances the instrument can be lifted using the two
lower housing sides. Two ribbed grips are provided on the left and right sides which prevent from slipping sideways.
Do not use the forehead rest of the perimeter as a carrying handle.
This plastic part is not adequate for the weight and can therefore break.
