Compliance with IEC 60601-1-1 Safety requirements for medical electrical sys-
tems must be determined on a case-by-case basis.
All electrical equipment attached to the 7000, such as video monitors, computer
equipment, etc. must, at a minimum, meet one of the following conditions:
a. The equipment complies with IEC 60601-1
b. The equipment complies with relevant IEC and ISO safety standards and is
supplied from a medical grade isolation transformer.
c. The equipment complies with relevant IEC and ISO safety standards and is
kept at least 1.5 meters from the patient.
The allowable leakage currents of IEC 60601-1-1 must not be exceeded. IEC
60601-1-1 should be consulted when assembling such a system.
Electromagnetic compatibility
The 7000 complies with IEC 60601-1-2.
The 7000 generates and uses radio frequency energy. In some cases the 7000
could cause interference to radio or television reception. You can determine if
the 7000 is the source of such interference by turning the unit off and on.
If you are experiencing interference caused by the 7000, you may be able to cor-
rect it by one or more of the following measures:
1. Relocate or reorient the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the distance between the 7000 and the receiver.
3. Connect the 7000 to a different outlet than the receiver.
In some cases radio transmitting devices, such as cellular telephones, may cause
interference to the 7000. In this case try increasing the distance between the
transmitter and the 7000.

The 7000 and some of its accessories contain lead. At the end of its useful life,
please recycle or dispose of the 7000 according to local regulations.
