Safety information
2.6.3 Risks regarding accessories
WARNING
Mechanical stress
Excessive mechanical stress applied to the cords can damage the cords and its insulations.
This can result in electric shock and thermal injury to the patient, the user and the medical
personnel. Furthermore, mechanical stress to the cords can cause malfunction of the
electrosurgical equipment which can result in patient injury.
• Do not excessively bend, strain or squeeze the cords.
WARNING
Damaged equipment and accessories
The use of damaged equipment or of equipment with improper functioning may cause
electric shock, mechanical injury, infection and thermal injury to the patient and the user.
• Before each use, observe the instructions in the section "Inspection before operation" on
page 67.
• Do not use damaged equipment or equipment with improper functioning.
• Replace damaged equipment or equipment with improper functioning.
WARNING
Risk of sparkover
There is a risk of sparkover leading to electrical injury, thermal injury and/or unintended
nerve stimulation.
• Check the maximum rated voltage of the other HF equipment.
• Make sure that the maximum output voltage of the electrosurgical generator does not
exceed the lowest maximum rated voltage of any of the HF equipment used during the
procedure.
CAUTION
Incompatible equipment
Using incompatible equipment may lead to injury of the patient and/or the user as well as
damage to the product.
• For information on compatible equipment, refer to the chapter "Compatible equipment" on
page 88.
2.6.4 Risks regarding electric shock
WARNING
Grounding failure
There is a risk of electric shock if the housing of the electrosurgical generator is not
grounded.
• Only connect the cord set to a properly grounded fixed socket-outlet.
• Do not use an adapter for an incompatible grounded fixed socket-outlet as it can impair
safe operation of the electrosurgical generator.
WARNING
Liquids
If liquids get on or into the electrosurgical generator, then this could cause electric shock to
the user as well as damage to the electrosurgical generator which could result in injury to
the user.
• Keep liquids away from all electrical equipment.
• If liquids get on or into the electrosurgical generator, then immediately stop the operation.
