Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
The C4
+
complies with the requirements of
IEC 60601-1-2:2001.
Medical electrical equipment is subject to special pre-
cautionary measures with regard to EMC. It must be
installed and operated in compliance with the specifica-
tions provided in the document “Installation Require-
ments”.
Portable and mobile RF communication systems may
interfere with medical electrical equipment. For this rea-
son, the use of mobile radio telephones in practice or
hospital environments must be prohibited.
With video systems:
Electromagnetic disturbances in the environment of the
C4
+
may result in reduced image quality. In such cases,
it is advisable to repeat the exposure before saving the
image.
In case of line voltage drops, image data stored in the
video camera may be lost. Place down the camera and
repeat the exposure.
Image artifacts may possibly occur as a result of
radio-frequency interference caused by the transmitters
of e.g. radio services or radio amateurs.
Influence on cardiac pacemakers
The workstation includes strong magnets which can
affect cardiac pacemakers of patients, users and techni-
cal personnel.
Therefore, pease pay attention to the safety information
on pages 7 and 57.
Treatment of highly immunosuppressed patients
Highly immunosuppressed patients should not come in
contact with water from the treatment center. The use of
sterile solutions is recommended.
Quality of water / air supply

fied in the installation instructions. Use only clean water.
Water quality compliance
To ensure compliance with the medical and national
