1) Acclimation Time
After being transported, the unit requires one hour for each 2.5 increment if its temperature
is below 10 C or above 40 C.
NOTE:
Please keep at least 20 to 30 cm spare space away from the back of the system to ensure well
ventilation. Otherwise, with the increasing of the temperature inside the unit, malfunction
may occur.
2) Connecting and Using the System
To connect the system to the electrical supply:
Check the power voltage input labeling at rear panel of the system.
Ensure that the wall outlet is of the appropriate type and well grounded.
Ensure that the system powers off.
Unwrap the power cable, and allow sufficient slack in the cable so that the plug will not
be pulled out of the wall outlet if the system is moved slightly.
Attach the power plug to the system and secure it in place by using the retaining clamp.
Push the power plug securely into the wall outlet.
CAUTION
Use caution to ensure that the power cable does not disconnect during system use.
If the system is accidently unplugged, data may be lost.
WARNING
To avoid risk of fire, the system power must be supplied from a separate, properly
rated outlet.
Under no circumstances should the AC power plug be altered, changed, or adapted to
a configuration rated less than specified. Never use an extension cord or adapter plug.
To help assure grounding reliability, connect to a hospital grade or hospital only
grounded power outlet.

5) Probes
CAUTION
Only use the probes approved by Manufacturer.
Selecting probes
Always start out with a probe that provides optimum focal depths and penetration for the
patient size and exam.
Begin the scanning session by choosing the correct application and preset for the
examination by selecting the exam icon.
Begin an exam using the default Power Output setting for the probe and exam.
CAUTION
Inspect the probe before and after each use for damage or degradation to the housing,
strain relief, lens, seal and connector. DO NOT use a probe that appears damaged until
its functional and safe performance is verified. A thorough inspection should be
performed during the cleaning process.
Align the connector with the probe port and carefully push into place with the cable
facing the front of the system.
Turn the probe connector locking lever to lock status.
Carefully position the probe cord so it is free to move and is not resting on the floor.
When the probe is connected, it will be automatically initialized.
CAUTION
Fault conditions can result in electric shock hazard. DO NOT touch the surface of
probe connector that is exposed when the probe is removed. DO NOT touch the patient
when connecting or disconnecting a probe.
Take precautions with probe cables DO NOT bend the cable acutely.

According to the purposes, the probes of this system can be divided into 2 categories: those used
on the surface of patient body, or those used inside the body of patient.
Caution
No matter which type of examination is performed, please always try to reduce the unnecessary
radiation of ultrasound wave to the patient during the ultrasound examination
Caution
1. Probe can only be used by professional doctor who has received professional training of
ultrasound.
2. It is forbidden to sterilize and disinfect probe by high pressure. If it needs to be used in
sterilized occasion, please use a sterilized disposable probe cover on the probe.
