and equipment damage.
• Do not immerse the probe into any liquid beyond the level specified for that probe. Never immerse the transducer connector or probe adapters into any liquid.
• Avoid mechanical shock or impact to the transducer and do not apply excessive bending or pulling force to the cable.
• Transducer damage can result from contact with inappropriate coupling or cleaning agents:
• Do not soak or saturate transducers with solutions containing alcohol, bleach, ammonium chloride compounds or hydrogen peroxide
• Avoid contact with solutions or coupling gels containing mineral oil or lanolin
• Avoid temperatures above 60°C.
• Inspect the probe prior to use for damage or degeneration to the housing, strain relief, lens and seal. Do not use a damaged or defective probe.
Adequate cleaning and disinfection are necessary to prevent disease transmission. It is the responsibility of the equipment user to verify and maintain the effectiveness of the
infection control procedures in use. Always use sterile, legally marketed probe sheaths for intra-cavitary and intra-operative procedures.
For neurological intra-operative procedures, use of a legally marketed, sterile, pyrogen free probe sheath is REQUIRED. Probes for neuro surgical use must not be sterilized
with liquid chemical sterilants because of the possibility of neuro toxic residues remaining on the probe.
A defective probe or excessive force can cause patient injury or probe damage:
• Observe depth markings and do not apply excessive force when inserting or manipulating intercavity probes.
• Inspect probes for sharp edges or rough surfaces that could injure sensitive tissue.
• DO NOT apply excessive force to the probe connector when inserting into the probe port. The pin of a probe connector may bend.
In order for liquid chemical germicides to be effective, all visible residue must be removed during the cleaning process. Thoroughly clean the probe, as described on the
following page before attempting disinfection.
CREUTZFIELD-JACOB DISEASE
Neurological use on patients with this disease must be avoided. If a probe becomes contaminated, there is no adequate disinfecting means.
The probe is driven with electrical energy that can injure the patient or user if live internal parts are contacted by conductive solution:
• DO NOT immerse the probe into any liquid beyond the level indicated by the immersion level diagram. Never immerse the probe connector or probe adaptors into any liquid.
• DO NOT drop the probes or subject them to other types of mechanical shock or impact. Degraded performance or damage such as cracks or chips in the housing may
result.
• Inspect the probe before and after each use for damage or degradation to the housing, strain relief, lens, and seal. A thorough inspection should be conducted during the
cleaning process.
• DO NOT kink, tightly coil, or apply excessive force on the probe cable. Insulation failure may result.
• Electrical leakage checks should be performed on a routine basis by GE Service or qualified hospital personnel. Refer to the service manual for leakage check procedures.

CAUTION
Probe Cleaning, After Each Use
1. Disconnect probe from ultrasound console and
remove all coupling gel from probe by wiping
with a soft cloth and rinsing with flowing water.
2. Wash the probe with mild soap in lukewarm
water. Scrub the probe as needed using a soft
sponge, gauze, or cloth to remove all visible
residue from the probe surface. Prolonged
soaking or scrubbing with a soft bristle brush
(such as a toothbrush) may be necessary if
material has dried onto the probe surface.
3. Rinse the probe with enough clean potable
water to remove all visible soap residue.
4. Air dry or dry with a soft cloth.
Probe Disinfection, After Each Use
1. Prepare the germicide solution according to the
manufacturer's instructions. Be sure to follow all
precautions for storage, use and disposal.
2. Place the cleaned and dried probe in contact
with the germicide for the time specified by the
germicide manufacturer. High-level disinfection
is recommended for surface probes and is
required for endocavitary and intraoperative
probes (follow the germicide manufacturer's
recommended time).
Probes for neuro surgical intra-operative use
must NOT be sterilized with liquid chemical
sterilants because of the possibility of neuro
toxic residues remaining on the probe.
Neurological procedures must be done with the
use of legally marketed, sterile, pyrogen free
probe sheaths.
3. After removing from the germicide, rinse the
probe following the germicide manufacturer's
rinsing instructions. Flush all visible germicide
residue from the probe and allow to air dry.
Probe Immersion Levels
Probe head (immersible portion) is IPX7, 1 meter
up probe aperture can be immersed in liquid.
In order for liquid chemical germicides to be effec-
tive, all visible residue must be removed during the
cleaning process. Thoroughly clean the probe, as
described earlier before attempting disinfection.
You MUST disconnect the probe from the LOGIQ
C5/C5 PRO prior to cleaning/ disinfecting the
probe. Failure to do so could damage the system.
Probe Disinfection Agents
Ultrasound probes can be disinfected using liquid
chemical germicides. The level of disinfection is
directly related to the duration of contact with the
germicide. Increased contact time produces a
higher level of disinfection.
Cidex Plus has been approved for the all probes
available on LOGIQ C5/C5 PRO.

Notice upon Installation of Product
Separation distance and effect from fixed radio communications equipment: field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless)
telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast, and TV broadcast transmitter cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To
assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the
location in which the ultrasound system is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level as stated in the immunity declaration, the ultrasound system should be
observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal operation is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the ultrasound
system or using an RF shielded examination room may be necessary.
1. Use either power supply cords provided by GE Medical Systems or ones designated by GE Medical Systems. Products equipped with a power source plug
should be plugged into the fixed power socket which has the protective grounding conductor. Never use any adaptor or converter to connect with a power
source plug (i.e. three-prong-to-two-prong converter).
2. Locate the equipment as far away as possible from other electronic equipment.
3. Be sure to use only the cables provided by or designated by GE Medical Systems. Connect these cables following the installation procedures (i.e. wire power
cables separately from signal cables).
4. Lay out the main equipment and other peripherals following the installation procedures described in the Option Installation manuals.

Acoustic Output
Located on the upper right section of the system display monitor, the acoustic output display provides the operator with a real-time indication of acoustic levels being
generated by the system. See the Acoustic Output chapter in the Advanced Reference Manual for more information. This display is based on NEMA/AIUM
Standards for Real-time Display of Thermal and Mechanic Acoustic Output Indices on Diagnostic Ultrasound Equipment.
Acoustic Output Display Specifications
The display consists of three parts: Thermal Index (TI), Mechanical Index (MI), and a relative Acoustic Output (AO) value. Although not part of the NEMA/AIUM
standard, the AO value informs the user of where the system is operating within the range of available output. Depending on the examination and type of tissue
involved, the TI parameter will be one of three types:
• Soft Tissue Thermal Index (TIS). Used when imaging soft tissue only, it provides an estimate of potential temperature increase in soft tissue.
• Bone Thermal Index (TIB). Used when bone is near the focus of the image as in the third trimester OB examination, it provides an estimate of potential
temperature increase in the bone or adjacent soft tissue.
• Cranial Bone Thermal Index (TIC). Used when bone is near the skin surface as in transcranial examination, it provides an estimate of potential temperature
increase in the bone or adjacent soft tissue.
The TI and MI is displayed at all times. The MI display starts at a value of 0.0 and increments in steps of 0.1 while the TI display starts at a value of 0.4 and
increments in steps of 0.1 (values less than 0.4 are displayed as < 0.4). Display precision is ± 0.1, and accuracy is ± 50%.
Controls Affecting Output
The potential for producing mechanical bioeffects (MI) or thermal bioeffects (TI) can be influenced by the certain controls.
Direct. The Acoustic Output control has the most significant effect on Acoustic Output.
Indirect. Indirect effects may occur when adjusting controls. Controls that can influence MI and TI are detailed under the Bioeffects portion of each control in the
Modes chapter of the Basic User Manual.
Always observe the acoustic output display for possible effects.

Best practices while scanning
Increase the Acoustic Output only after attempting image optimization with controls that have no effect on Acoustic Output, such as Gain
and TGC.
NOTE: Refer to the Optimization sections of the Modes chapter for a complete discussion of each control.
Be sure to have read and understood control explanations for each Mode used before attempting to adjust the Acoustic Output control or
any control that can effect Acoustic Output.
Use the minimum necessary acoustic output to get the best diagnostic image or measurement during an examination. Begin the exam with
the probe that provides an optimum focal depth and penetration.
Acoustic Output Default Levels
In order to ensure that an exam does not start at a high output level, the LOGIQ C5/C5 PRO initiates scanning at a reduced default output level. This reduced level
is a programmable preset and depends upon the exam category and probe selected. It takes effect when the system is powered on or New Patient is selected.
