Special Notice to User

Malfunction caused by EMC
The Cardimax FX-7202 complies with the safety standards IEC60601-2-25 (1999) and IEC60601-1-2 (2001). However, if there is a strong electromagnetic wave nearby that exceeds the prescribed limit, the device could malfunction. If this happens, provide the required countermeasures.
Influence of radiation electromagnetic wave:
The use of a cellular phone could affect the operation of the FX-7202. Alert persons in a facility where medical electronic equipment is installed to turn off their cellular phones and small radio equipment.
Influence of bursts and conduction electromagnetic wave:
High-frequency noise from other equipment may infiltrate into the FX-7202 through the AC outlet. Identify the noise source and stop use of the relevant equipment if possible. If this equipment cannot be shut down, provide the countermeasures for this noise route using a noise suppressing device, etc.
Influence of static electricity:
The discharge of static electricity could affect the operation of the FX-7202 in a dry environment (room), particularly in winter. Before using the FX-7202, humidify the room or discharge static electricity from a patient and person who will record the ECG.
Influence of surge (lightening):
If there is a thunderstorm occurring nearby, it might cause a voltage surge in the FX-
7202. If you expect any danger, unplug the power supply cord from the AC outlet and run the FX-7202 on built-in battery power (optional). Also use an uninterruptible power supply, if you have one.

Safety Precautions

Before using the Cardimax FX-7202, be sure to read this section to ensure safety and
correct operation.
Be sure to follow the precautions given below. These are important matters related to
safety.
Safety notifications
The following three safety notices alert the user to the level of hazard and damage that may result from not following the instructions or from misuse of the equipment.
DANGER
WARNING
CAUTION
Ignoring these instructions could cause death, serious injury, or major fire.
Ignoring these instructions could cause death, serious injury, or fire.
Ignoring these instructions could cause injury or damage to the equipment.
Safety icons
The following icons appear with the instructions given in safety notices. They basically categorize what you should do or not do in the following manner:
Indicates actions that are prohibited.
Provides instructions for dangers, warnings, and cautions.
Indicates actions that must be performed.
v
Precautions on analysis program
Interpretation and Minnesota codes given by the Cardimax FX-7202 do not instruct the physician as to the kind and degree of cardiac disease. Accordingly, four value judgments are given for electrocardiogram (ECG) waveform and although "abnormal" indicates a large possibility of organic cardiac disease, there are cases where no cardiac disease exists despite an abnormal ECG (that is, an abnormal ECG may be caused by something other than the heart). On the other hand, care should be taken in the event any preclinical coronary arteriosclerosis could be present despite a normal ECG interpretation. Therefore, for a proper diagnosis, the ECG should be integrated with other interpretations. This program is not an arrhythmia monitor. The FX-7202 has no arrhythmia alarms.
Precautions on measurement program
The equipment may measure the ECG waveform incorrectly due to external noise (such as a drift of baseline, electromyogram, AC interference, etc.). Another matter which requires careful consideration is that tiny R waves in V1 and V2 may be overlooked and the S wave could be interpreted as Q wave.
CAUTION
CAUTION
Precautions on battery pack
DANGER
Be sure to use the specified battery pack (T8HRAAU-4713).
Be sure to charge the battery using the Cardimax FX-7202.
Charging the battery using other equipment could lead to a hazard.
Do not disassemble or mutilate the battery. You could burn
yourself.
Do not incinerate or heat the battery. You could burn yourself,
or the battery could burst or leak toxic substances.
Do not short the battery. You could burn yourself.
Keep away from children.
If the liquid contained in the battery gets into your eyes, do not
rub them. Wash your eyes thoroughly with water and see a doctor immediately.
vi
Nonexplosion proof
Magnetic resonance imaging
High-frequency surgery
DANGER
Do not operate the FX-7202 in an environment where there is a risk of explosion. Do not operate the FX-7202 in the presence of flammable anesthetics.
WARNING
Do not operate the FX-7202 during Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanning. The conducting current may cause burns. Operating the FX-7202 may affect the MRI image, while the MRI may affect the accuracy of the FX-7202.
Defibrillation protection
WARNING
The patient cable (CP-104T,CP-104L or CP-104J) contains resistors installed in the lead wire plugs to prevent damage to the equipment when used in the presence of high frequency surgery apparatus. These components reduce the risk of not only device damage, but also the risk of burns to the patient.
WARNING
The FX-7202 may remain connected to the patient during defibrillation only if the proper patient cable provided with defibrillator protection is being used. The patient cable (CP­104T,CP-104L or CP-104J) is provided with defibrillation protection. The FX-7202 will not be damaged when these cables are used, even if the defibrillator paddles come into contact with the ECG electrodes.
vii
Connection
DANGER
This isolation measure is provided to protect the patient.
Operation is bypassed if the electrodes on the patient cable come into contact with any other metal object or other electrically conductive objects, including the operator’s hands. When such contacts occur, there is a risk of electric shock, regardless of whether or not the objects are grounded.
All ECG wires (patient connections), connectors, and amplifiers
are electronically isolated from the rest of the device and from ground. This isolation restricts the current that can pass through a patient to less than 10 microamperes.
If the power supply cords of several different units are
connected together in a multiple outlet tap, an increase in chassis leakage current can create a potential hazard.
When a cardiac pacemaker or other electrical stimulator is
connected to the patient, it increases the risk of a potential hazard. Pay particular attention to safety measures to record ECG in such conditions. Appropriate measures must be taken to assure that the chassis leakage current is at a safe level.
The FX-7202 is Type CF equipment. It must not, however, be
placed in direct contact with the area of the heart.
Be sure to connect the power supply cord to a hospital-grade wall AC outlet. If no hospital-grade wall outlet is available, connect the potential equalization cable securely to a proper ground. If no proper grounding is available, operate the FX-7202 on its rechargeable battery.
viii
Preventive maintenance
Transportation
CAUTION
The purpose of preventive maintenance is to assure that the device is always in a safe operating condition and to prevent possible future problems. Preventive maintenance should be performed at least once during each 12-month period.
