Safety measures and warnings
Connect the mains power adapter only to a supply mains with protective earth to avoid the risk of
electric shock.
Only use the SAGA product with the supplied mains power adapter or a replacement explicitly
approved by TMSi to avoid the risk of electric shock.
Only use accessories explicitly approved by TMSi to avoid the risk of electric shock.
Do not connect equipment that is not IEC 60950 compliant to SAGA to avoid the risk of electric
shock.
Do not touch pins of removed batteries or of disengaged connector plugs or sockets to avoid the
risk of electric shock.
Do not use any other than the designated battery type with SAGA to avoid the risk of electric shock
and damage to it.
Do not use SAGA together with cautery or electro-coagulation equipment on the same subject to
avoid damage to the product.
Do not use or store near sources with particle radiation or elevated levels of electrical, magnetic or
electro-magnetic fields to avoid damage to the product.
Only connect TMSi approved accessories and equipment to SAGA to avoid damage to it and
reciprocal interference.
Do not use SAGA together with magnetic resonance imaging equipment on the same subject to
avoid reciprocal interference.
Do not tamper with any part of SAGA. No modifications are allowed to maintain safety.
Use of SAGA adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could
result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, SAGA and the other equipment should be
observed to verify that they are operating normally.
Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or provided by the
manufacturer of SAGA could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased
electromagnetic immunity of SAGA and result in improper operation.
Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and
external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the SAGA
including its cables. Otherwise SAGA performance degradation could result.
