conducted transients or strong electromagnetic (eM) or radiofrequency
(RF) sources, such as portable and mobile RF communication equipment,
electrosurgery and electrocautery equipment, x-rays, and high intensity
infrared radiation.
WARnInG! Operation of this device may be adversely affected in the presence of computed
tomograph (CT) equipment.
WARnInG! Any monitor that has been dropped or damaged should be inspected by
qualified service personnel, prior to use, to insure proper operation.
WARnInG! If the accuracy of any measurement is in question, verify the patient’s vital signs
by an alternative method, and then check the monitor for proper functioning.
