Protective Earth
To protect hospital personnel and the patient, the cabinet must be grounded.
Accordingly, the receiver is equipped with a 3-wire power cable which grounds it to
the power line ground when plugged into an appropriate 3-wire receptacle. Do not
use a 3-wire to 2-wire adapter with the receiver. Any interruption of the protective
earth grounding will cause a potential shock hazard that could result in serious
personal injury.
Whenever it is likely that the protection has been impaired, the receiver must be made
inoperative and be secured against any unintended operation.
Warning
Check each time before use that the Telemetry System is in perfect working
order and the receiver is properly grounded.
The patient cable must be positioned so that it does not come into contact with any
other electrical equipment.
Before operation, make sure that the receiver is free from condensation. This can
form when equipment is moved from one building to another, and is exposed to
moisture and differences in temperature.
Warning
Possible explosion hazard if used in the presence of flammable anesthetics.
