WARNING

SHOCK HAZARD

If you are monitoring a patient and using the system connector, all equipment

connected to the system connector must be battery powered or electrically isolated

from AC power according to EN 60601-1. If in doubt, disconnect the patient from the

defibrillator before using the system connector. Only use Physio-Control recommended

data transmission cables. For more information, contact Physio-Control Technical

Support.

IMPROPER DEVICE PERFORMANCE HAZARD

RF communication equipment such as cell phones, modems and radios may interfere

with the performance of the monitor/defibrillator. If the monitor/defibrillator is used

near RF communication equipment, observe the recommended separation distances

in Table D-4 on page D-4. Certain RF communication equipment can be used at

distances that are less than those recommended in Table D-4. If the separation

distance is less than the recommended distance, use only equipment recommended

by Physio-Control and observe the monitor/defibrillator to verify normal operation.
