1 Safety Precautions
Operator’s Manual 1 - 7
• It is required to practice ALARA when operating ultrasound system.
Minimize the acoustic power without compromising the quality of images.
• The probe and accessories supplied with it are not delivered disinfected or
sterilized. Sterilization (or high-level disinfect) before use is required.
• Disposable components should be packaged sterile and for single-use
only. Do not use if integrity of packaging violated or if expiration date has
passed. Please use the disposable components compliant with the relevant
local regulations.
• Please use the disinfection or sterilization solution recommended in this
operator's manual; otherwise Mindray will not be liable for damage caused
by other solutions. If you have any questions, please contact Mindray
Customer Service Department or sales representative.
• Do not use pre-lubricated condoms as a sheath. Lubricant may not be
compatible with the probe material and damage may result.
• The damage of the transducer may be caused by the contact of improper
gel or cleaner:
– DO NOT dip the transducer in the strong polar solution of ethanol,
chloride of lime, ammonium chloride, acetone and formaldehyde.
– DO NOT contact the transducer with solution or ultrasound gel
containing oily medium such as mineral oil or lanoline.
NOTE:
• Read the following precautions to prevent the probe from malfunction:
–
Before connecting or disconnecting the probe, freeze or turn off the diagnostic ultrasound
system.
– Clean and disinfect the probe before and after each examination.
– After the examination, wipe off the ultrasound gel thoroughly. Otherwise, the ultrasound
gel may solidify and the image quality would be degraded.
• Repeated disinfection will eventually damage the probe, please check the probe performance
periodically.
