Protection Against Hazards
Fluids
Avoid spilling fluids on any part of the control unit.
If spills do occur:
⬡
Turn off control unit power and disconnect the
unit from mains electricity supply.
⬡
Immediately clean fluids from the casing by
wiping with a soft cloth.
Ensure there is no moisture in or near the
power inlet, power switch and power cord
before reconnecting the power supply.
Check the operation of controls and other
components around the spill area.
Fluid or liquid remaining on the electronic
controls can cause corrosion that may cause
the electronic components to fail. Component
failures may cause the unit to operate
erratically, possibly producing potential
hazards to patient and carers.
Explosion Hazard
Equipment is not suitable for use in the presence of
a flammable anaesthetic mixture with air, oxygen
or nitrous oxide.
⬡
Do not use in the presence of smoking
materials or open flame – air flowing through
the mattress will support combustion.
⬡
Do not open the control unit – risk of electrical
shock. Refer servicing to qualified service
personnel.
Disposal
Dispose of all components (control unit including
batteries, air filter, air cells, mattress cover
and base) according to local procedures and
regulations or contact Novis Healthcare for advice.
Power Cord
The system should never be operated with a worn
or damaged power cord. Keep the cord away from
heated surfaces. Should the power cord be found
to be worn or damaged, contact Novis Healthcare
for a replacement.

intent of directive IEC 60601-1-2
1
in relation to
