Safety
This equipment has been verified by a recognized third-party testing agency as a Class I device
with Type BF and Type CF isolated patient-applied parts and Type B accessories. For maximum
safety observe these warnings:
WARNINGS • Do not connect the ultrasound system to the same circuit used for life-support devices.
• Shock hazards may exist if this system, including all externally mounted recording and moni-
toring devices, is not properly grounded. Protection against electrical shock is provided by
grounding the chassis with a three-wire cable and plug. The system must be plugged into a
grounded outlet. The grounding wire must not be removed or defeated.
• To avoid risks of electrical shock and fire hazards, inspect the system power cord and plug on
a regular basis. Ensure that they are not damaged in any way.
• Do not remove the protective covers on the system; hazardous voltages are present inside.
Cabinet panels must be in place while the system is in use. All internal adjustments and
replacements must be made by a qualified Philips Ultrasound field service engineer.
• Do not operate this system in the presence of flammable gases or anesthetics. Explosion can
result from electrical ignition.
• To avoid risk of electrical shock hazards, always disconnect the system from the wall outlet
before cleaning the system.
