WARNING Schedule: Failure on the part of the responsible individual hospital or institution employing the use of
this equipment to implement a satisfactory maintenance schedule may cause undue equipment failure
and possible health hazards.

Inspecting the Equipment and Accessories
You should perform a visual inspection before every use, and in accordance with your hospital’s policy.
With the monitor switched off:
1 Examine unit exteriors for cleanliness and general physical condition. Make sure that the housings
are not cracked or broken, that everything is present, that there are no spilled liquids and that there
are no signs of abuse.
2 If the MMS and Server Extensions are mounted on the monitor, make sure that they are locked
into place and do not slide out without releasing the locking mechanism.
3 Inspect all accessories (cables, transducers, sensors and so forth). If any show signs of damage, do
not use.
4 Switch the monitor on and make sure the backlight is bright enough. Check that screen is at its full
brightness. If the brightness is not adequate, contact your service personnel or your supplier.
Inspecting the Cables and Cords
1 Examine all system cables, the power plug and cord for damage. Make sure that the prongs of the
plug do not move in the casing. If damaged, replace it with an appropriate Philips power cord.
2 Inspect the Measurement Server Link cable and ensure that it makes good connection with the
MMS and the FMS. Make sure that there are no breaks in the insulation.
3 If the MMS is not mounted directly on the monitor, inspect the cable connecting it to the
monitor. Make sure the connectors are properly engaged.
