Safety Information
Intended Use
The SEER Light recorder is a two and three channel digital Holter ECG
recorder that records the electrical signals associated with cardiac
activity fo r 24 or 48 h our s . It i s u se d in diagnosing card i ac a bno r mal i t ie s
and revealing trends or changes in heart function. This device is for the
use of trained personnel only.
This device is not intended for use on infants weighing less than 10 kg
(22 lbs).
Definitions
The terms danger, warning, and caution are used throughout this
manual to point out hazards and to designate a degree or level of
seriousness. Familiarize yourself with their definitions and significance.
Introduction: Safety Information
Warnings
Hazard is defined as a source of potential injury to a person.
DANGER indicates an imminent hazard which, if not avoided, will
result in death or serious injury.
WARNING indicates a potential hazard or unsafe practice which, if not
avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a potential hazard or unsafe practice which, if not
avoided, could result in minor personal injury or product/property
damage.
NOTE provides application tips or other useful information.
WARNINGS
ACCIDENTAL SPILLS — If liquids have entered a
device, take it out of service and have it checked by a
service technician before it is used again. To avoid
electric shock or device malfunction liquids must not be
allowed to enter the device.
CABLES — To avoid possible strangulation, route all
cables away from patient's throat.
CARDIAC APPLICATION — This device cannot be used
for direct cardiac application.
CONDUCTIVITY — Keep the conductive parts of lead
electrodes and associated parts away from other
conductive parts, including earth.
DEFIBRILLATOR PRECAUTIONS — Do not come into
1-6 SEER Light Ambulatory Recorder/Controller Revision B
2019818-008
Introduction: Safety Information
contact with patients during defibrillation. Otherwise,
serious injury or death could result. Patient signal inputs
labeled with the CF and BF symbols wi th paddles are
protected against damage resulting from defibrillation
voltages. To ensure proper defibrillator protection, use
only the recommended cables and leadwires. Proper
placement of defibrillator paddles in relation to the
electrodes is required to ensure successful defibrillation.
ELECTROSURGERY — If an electrosurgery device is
used, it is necessary to disconnect the patient cable from
the SEER Light recorder. Take precautions to reduce
risks of burns and injury to the patient.
LEAKAGE CURRENT — Electrical shock to patient
could result from component failure and lack of power
isolation.
In the event this syste m is used in the patient vicinity, it
must be configured in such a way that it and all of its
electrically-connecte d peripheral devices ar e isolated from
mains power to prevent excessive leakage current to the
patient. This can be accomplished through the use of
isolated mains power, or a medical grade isolation
transformer (in compliance with UL 60601, CAN/CSA
C22.2 No. 601.1, IEC 60601-1) with this system. All nonmedical peripheral devices shall comply with IEC and ISO
safety standards that are relevant to that equipment (i.e.,
IEC 60950, UL 60950).
Cautions
Use of the SEER Light Connect device in the patient
vicinity requires that these measures are observed.
PACEMAKER PATIENTS — Take precautions to avoid
risks of hazard due to the operation of a cardiac
pacemaker or other electrical stimulators.
SUPERVISED USE — This device is intended for use
under the direct supervision of a licensed health care
practitioner.
CAUTIONS
RESTRICTED SALE — U.S. federal law restricts this
device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
BEFORE OPERATION — Check that the instrument
operates properly.
DISPOSAL — At the end of its service life, the product
described in this manual, as well as its accessories, must
be disposed of in compliance with local, state, or federal
Revision B SEER Light Ambulatory Recorder/Controller 1-7

guidelines regulating the disposal of such products. If you
have questions concerning dispos al of the product , please
contact GE or its representatives.
MODIFICATIONS — Do not make an y modifications to
the device.
AFTER DEVICE USE — Clean the device after each use
to ensure trouble-free op eration for the next use.
Use a piece of damp cloth with alcohol to clean the
device and the patient cable.
The device cannot be sterilized.
Do not use xylene and petrol related liquid for
cleaning the device.
To ensure proper operation of the device, it is
necessary to periodically have the device checked by
authorized service personnel.
Check the patient cable and connectors every month
by connecting them to an ECG simulator.
Serial Number
INSTALLATION — Adhere to the following
recommendations during installation:
Install and keep device away from splashing water.
Do not install the device where it may be affected by
humidity, ventilation, direct sunlight, air
conditioning, dust, salt, sulfur, etc.
Prevent the device from ti lting, and protect it from
the possibility of vibration or shock.
Do not install the device in a chemical storage area or
where gas is generated.
Every GE Medical Systems Information Technologies device has a
unique serial number for identification. The serial number appears on
the device label similar to the one shown below

2019818-008
Introduction: Responsibility of the Manufacturer
Information Technology Equipment
The hardware components supplied by GE for the MARS® Holter
analysis workstation, on which the SEER Light Connect application
runs, are considered to be Information Technology Equipment (ITE).
These individual components have been found to comply with the
standard for Safety of Information Technology Equipment, including
Electrical Business Equipment EN60950 (UL 60950).
The software used in the MARS® Holter analysis workstation is
considered as medical software. The software has been designed and
manufactured to the appropriate medical regulations and controls.
In order for the MARS® Holter analysis workstation to comply with
medical equipment standard leakage current requirements, a medical
grade uninterruptible power supply (UPS) must be used (UL 60601-1,
CSA 22.2 No. 60601-1, EN 60601-1) to power all non-medical equipment.
In addition, non-medical electrical equipment must comply with IEC and
ISO safety standards that are relevant to that equipment (i.e., IEC
60950, Safety of Information Technology Equipment.)
