Stand basics To raise or lower the system platform 1 Make sure that the area above the platform is clear. 2 Facing the back of the stand, turn the height-adjustment lever counter-clockwise. The pole may rise automatically from the column. 3 Raise or lower the pole to the desired height, and then tighten the lever. To tighten the lever, turn it clockwise. If lowering the pole, avoid grasping its base. Skin could get caught and pinched in the gap. 4 If you want to reposition the lever (for example, parallel to the pole), pull the lever out, turn it to the desired position, and release.

To lock or unlock a wheel ™ Push the locking lever on the wheel:

• Push down to lock. • Push up to unlock.

Inserting and removing the ultrasound system To insert the ultrasound system 1 Rotate system latches outward. 2 Place the ultrasound system on the system platform, ensuring that the transducer cable is positioned between the handles of the stand. 3 Secure by rotating the system latches inward.

To remove the ultrasound system 1 Disconnect any cords, cables, or TTC attached to the system. 2 Rotate latches outward. 3 Lift the ultrasound system.

English

Connecting the ultrasound system Attach the mini-dock if you use the system with AC-powered peripherals.

To attach the mini-dock 1 Turn off the ultrasound system.

2 Place the mini-dock on the system platform.

Deutsch

The mini-dock may not function properly if you connect the system while the power is on.

3 Slide the mini-dock feet under the ultrasound system and firmly press the mini-dock into the I/O connector on the back of the system. Español

The mini-dock is correctly attached when no gap is between the system and mini-dock. See Figure 2. Note: If at any time the ultrasound system should lose connectivity, turn off the system and reattach the mini-dock and system. Always verify that the mini-dock and system are correctly attached after changing a transducer. When you change a transducer, the mini-dock may loosen.

A set screw controls the tightness of the display angle. To avoid damage to the display, do not adjust the set screw. Turning the set screw loosens the display, causing the display to drop.

English

Cleaning and disinfecting WARNING:

To avoid electrical shock, before cleaning always disconnect the system from the power supply and remove it from the stand. Deutsch

To avoid injury, always use protective eyewear and gloves when performing cleaning and disinfecting procedures. To avoid infection:

Caution:

Español

• Ensure that the solution expiration date has not passed. • The level of disinfection required for a product is dictated by the type of tissue it contacts during use. Ensure that the solution strength and duration of contact are appropriate for the equipment. For information, see the disinfectant label instructions and the recommendations of the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC) and FDA.

Français

Use only recommended cleaners or disinfectants on surfaces. Immersion-type disinfectants are not tested for use on surfaces.

To clean and disinfect a peripheral, refer to its manufacturer’s instructions. For the bar code scanner, also see Bar Code Scanner User Guide.

To clean and disinfect the stand or TTC

1 Do one of the following:

Italiano

You can clean and disinfect the exterior surface of the stand or TTC using a recommended cleaner or disinfectant. For the most recent list of approved products, see www.sonosite.com.

• If cleaning the stand, unplug the power supply, detach any cables from the system and mini-dock, and remove the system and mini-dock.

2 Clean the surfaces using a soft cloth lightly dampened in a mild soap or detergent cleaning solution. Apply the solution to the cloth rather than the surface. 3 Wipe the surfaces with the disinfecting solution. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the disinfecting solution, including exposure time and temperature for effective disinfection. 4 Air dry or towel dry with a clean cloth. For information about cleaning the peripherals, see the manufacturer’s instructions.

Safety Observe the following warnings and cautions before using accessories and peripherals with the ultrasound system and transducers.

Electrical safety The stand is not an electrical device and does not require ground bond testing. The stand is for facilitating the mobility of peripherals and their connection to the ultrasound system.

WARNING:

To avoid the risk of a shock hazard, do not plug the power cord of the H-Universal Stand into a multiple portable socket outlet (MPSO) other than the isolation transformer, or use an extension cord. To avoid the risk of electrical shock: • Use only properly grounded equipment. Shock hazards exist if the power supply is not properly grounded. Grounding reliability can only be achieved when equipment is connected to a receptacle marked “Hospital Only” or “Hospital Grade” or the equivalent. The grounding wire must not be removed or defeated. • Use commercial grade peripherals recommended by SonoSite on battery power only. Do not connect these products to AC mains power when using the system to scan or diagnose a patient/subject. Contact SonoSite or your local representative for a list of the commercial grade peripherals available from or recommended by SonoSite. • Use only accessories and peripherals recommended by SonoSite, including the power supply. Connection of accessories and peripherals not recommended by SonoSite could result in electrical shock. Contact SonoSite or your local representative for a list of accessories and peripherals available from or recommended by SonoSite. To avoid the risk of electrical shock and fire hazard, inspect the power supply, plugs, cables, and power cords on a regular basis for damage.

16

Deutsch

To avoid possible electrical shock or electromagnetic interference, verify proper operation and compliance with relevant safety standards for all equipment before clinical use. Connecting additional equipment to the ultrasound system constitutes configuring a medical system. SonoSite recommends verifying that the system, all combinations of equipment, and accessories connected to the ultrasound system comply with JACHO installation requirements and/or safety standards AAMI-ES1, NFPA 99, IEC 60601-1-1, and IEC 60601-1-2, and are certified according to IEC 60950 (Information Technology Equipment (ITE)).

English

WARNING:

Equipment safety Excessive bending or twisting of cables can cause a failure or intermittent operation. Improper cleaning or disinfecting of any part of the accessories and peripherals can cause permanent damage. For cleaning and disinfecting instructions, see “Cleaning and disinfecting” on page 9 and the manufacturer’s operating instructions.

Français

Accessible metal on the signal inputs and outputs on the back and side of the ultrasound system is not protectively earthed. Do not perform a high current ground impedance test involving this part.

Español

Caution:

Clinical safety Italiano

WARNING:

To avoid misdiagnosis, do not use non-medical (commercial) grade peripheral monitors. These monitors have not been verified or validated by SonoSite as being suitable for diagnosis.

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) Português

See the safety section of the ultrasound system user guide and supplemental guides for information on electromagnetic compatibility with IEC 60601-1-2, including the Manufacturer’s Declaration.
