Indications for Use
Do not use the signal processor or display while charging. Charging is an operator
function. To ensure patient safety, the system is not be in contact with the patient during
charging.
Refer to the applicable sensor Instructions for Use (IFU) for additional warnings and
cautions.
Cautions
When using this device in an operating room, it must remain outside the sterile field.
This equipment complies with IEC 60601-1-2 for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) for
medical electrical equipment and/or systems. This standard is designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a typical medical installation. However,
because of the proliferation of radio-frequency transmitting equipment and other sources of
electrical noise in healthcare and other environments, it is possible that high levels of such
interference due to close proximity or strength of a source might disrupt the performance of
this device. Medical electrical equipment needs special precautions regarding EMC, and all
equipment must be installed and put into service according to the EMC information specified
in this manual.
The CO-Pilot is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure
to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the United States FCC. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by both U.S.
and international standards bodies. This device has been shown to be compliant for
localized specific absorption rate (SAR) for uncontrolled environment/general population
exposure limits specified in ANSI/IEEE Std. C95.
Factors that may degrade oximeter performance include the following:
Batteries are a fire hazard if damaged. Do not damage, mishandle, disassemble, service, or
replace with non-specified components.
Do not charge Li-Ion batteries at a temperature of 0 °C (32 °F) or less as this may result in
significantly reduced battery life.
