PLUG CHAIR INTO PROPERLY GROUNDED WALL OUTLET MARKED
“HOSPITAL ONLY” OR “HOSPITAL GRADE”
For
“A” Option Only
Chair is equipped with hospital-grade three-prong plug for protection against electric shock, and must be
plugged into properly grounded hospital-grade wall outlet.
MAX WEIGHT OF BACK SURGICAL BAR
The max weight capacity of each back surgical bar is 50 pounds. To prevent personal injury to patient, do
not mount equipment weighing more than 50 pounds to device. Weight of patient plus weight of equipment
should not exceed 500 pound weight capacity of TransMotion Medical stretcher-chair.
EMI CAUTION:
EMI MAY AFFECT CHAIR FUNCTIONALITY
Chair may be susceptible to EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) caused by electromagnetic energy emitted from
various sources, such as, radio and television stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, citizen band (CB) radios,
hand-held
“walkie-talkies”, security / police / fire transceivers, and other communication devices. EMI can cause
chair to move by itself, or in an unintended fashion. It can damage control system(s).
Intensity of interfering energy is measured in V/m (volts per meter). Chair can resist EMI up to a certain intensity,
called its “immunity level”. When the immunity level is higher, the less likely EMI will interfere with chair operation.
The chair has been tested to 20 V/m immunity level, which is sufficient to provide useful protection from common
sources of radiated electromagnetic energy.
In clinical environments devices can emit electromagnetic energy, which becomes more intense as one moves
closer to energy source. To reduce chance of unintended movement or operation of chair, observe the following:
1. Be aware of nearby high-power transmitters (radio and TV stations), MRI (magnetic resonance imaging)
systems, and NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) imaging systems. Keep chair away from these areas.
2. Do not operate hand-held transmitters near chair.
3. Do not operate chair near others using hand-held transmitters.
4. If unintended chair movement occurs, disconnect battery, and move chair away from location.
NOTICES:
MAXIMUM PATIENT WEIGHT IS 500 lbs (227 kg)
Maximum patient weight capacity of chair is 500 pounds. If exceeded, damage to chair could occur.
CHAIR IS INTENDED FOR INDOOR USE ONLY
To ensure proper operation and extend chair life, only use chair in specified environment.
USE
CDC’s UNIVERSAL PRECAUTIONS
When maintaining chair after clinical use, service personnel must use UNIVERSAL PRECAUTIONS as
defined by CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention).
