• When the patient is moved after the dispersive electrode has
been attached, confirm that the dispersive electrode is still in
proper contact with the patient otherwise it may cause
operator and/or patient burns.
• Do not use the electrosurgical unit in a location exposed to
strong electromagnetic radiation (microwave medical
treatment equipment, short wave medical treatment
equipment, MRI, radio or mobile phone). Electrosurgical unit
malfunction can occur.
• To prevent electrosurgical unit damage, never short-circuit
electrodes (accessories, patient plate).
• Repairs should be performed only by Olympus.
• The electrosurgical unit should only be used in accordance
with the conditions described in “Operating environment” in
the Appendix. The use under other conditions may impede
normal performance, and/or result in equipment damage.
• During treatment, be sure that the distal (metallic) end of the
endoscope, and metallic parts of accessory do not touch the
normal tissue surrounding the target tissue. This action may
cause severe burns.
