5) Use a sterile probe cover to protect the probe. The probe cover
should be allergy free material to avoid allergic reaction. Between
the probe and the probe cover, acoustic coupling gel is required
as a couplant.
6) Place the probe on the examination site and adjust the probe's
position for a clear view of the desire image.
7) After using the probe, perform the reprocessing procedure in
accordance with the procedure stated in "4. Reprocessing Procedure"
every time immediately after completing the ultrasound examination.
8) Store the probe and the attachment in the environment indicated in
"6. Maintenance and Safety Inspection".
Do not use the probe if the image and the frequency do not match
the probe. An incorrect acoustic output can result in burns or other
injuries to the patient.

at the lowest suitable output. There is the possibility that the
patient's tissues could be affected. For details about the acoustic
output, please refer to the operation manual of the ultrasound
diagnostic instrument.
