Safety Precautions
Please observe the following precautions to ensure patient and operator safety when using this
product.
Danger:
Do not use this equipment and probes where flammable gas (such as
anesthetic gas, oxygen or hydrogen) or flammable liquid (such as alcohol) are
present. Failure to do so may result in explosion.
Warning:
1.
The power adapter plug of this equipment and the power plug of the peripherals
connected to this equipment shall be connected into the power socket with
protectively earth on the wall and the socket must meet the ratings indicated on
the rating nameplate.
Use of multiple portable socket-outlets may affect
protective earth to make leakage currents exceed the safety requirements.
You must use the power adapter provided by Kaixin; otherwise electric shock
may result.
You must adopt the power supply method provided by Kaixin, other power
supply modes may result in electric shock.
2.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, this equipment must only be connected to a
supply mains with protective earth.
3.
Please follow the correct electrical connections method to connect the power
supply and earth, otherwise there will be danger of electric shock. Do not connect
the grounding wire to any gas pipe or water pipe, or it may cause improper
grounding and danger of explosion.
4.
Before cleaning the equipment, disconnect the power supply cord from the outlet.
Failure to do so may result in equipment failure and electric shock.
5.
The waterproof grade of the equipment is IPX4 (no adverse effect on splashing
water in all directions). Splash any liquid on the equipment may damage it. If
you accidentally splash liquid on the equipment, please immediately turn off the
power and contact your service representative.
6.
Do not use a probe that has a damaged or scratched surface. Immediately stop
using the probe and contact your local representative. There is a risk of electric
shock if using a damaged or scratched probe.
7.
Prohibit the live parts of the equipment or other devices (such as various signal
input and output ports, etc.) contact with the patient, if this equipment or other
equipment has failure, the patient will have danger of electric shock.
8.
Do not strike the probe; using the damaged probe may cause electric shock.
9.
Do not open the covers or control panel of the equipment. Short circuit or electric
shock may occur when the system hardware is exposed and powered on.
10.
Avoid using this equipment with high-frequency electric knife, high-frequency
therapy equipment or defibrillators and other electronic devices, or may an
electric shock occur to the patient.
11.
If the integrity of the external protective conductor in the installation or its
arrangement is in doubt, the equipment shall be operated from its internal
electrical power source.
12.
Additional equipment connected to the medical electrical equipment must
comply with the respective IEC or ISO standards (e.g. IEC60950 for data
processing equipment, IEC 60601-1 for medical equipment). Furthermore all
configurations shall comply with the requirements for medical electrical systems
(see IEC 60601-1-1). Anybody connecting additional equipment to medical
electrical equipment configures a medical system and is therefore responsible
that the system complies with the requirements for medical electrical systems.
Attention is drawn to the fact that local laws take priority over the above
mentioned requirements. If in doubt, consult your local representative or the
technical service department.
