Performing Routine Maintenance

Recommended Frequency

Perform the maintenance procedures at the recommended frequency shown in the following table.

Caution The frequency recommendations in the following table do not supersede local requirements.

Always perform locally required testing in addition to the testing in this chapter.

Maintenance Procedure Frequency

Routine Safety and Operational Checks

• Visual Inspection of exterior for damage Before use.

• Inspection of labels for legibility Before use.

Cleaning and Disinfecting According to your institution’s policy or

between each patient. For complete cleaning instructions, see the Instructions for Use provided with your monitor.

Maintaining the Battery

• Charging As needed.

• Reconditioning When the Max Error is 10% or greater.

Warning The monitor must be connected to a three-wire, grounded hospital-grade receptacle. Do not

remove the grounding connector from the power plug or use extensions cords or adapters of any type.

If there is any doubt about the integrity of the protective earth conductor arrangement, operate the device on internal battery power until the AC power supply protective conductor is fully functional.

Measure the device's leakage current whenever an external device is connected to the serial port. Leakage current must not exceed 100 microamperes. See “Safety Tests” on page 3-22.

Warning MR-unsafe!

Do not expose the device to a magnetic resonance (MR) environment.

• The device may present a risk of projectile injury due to the presence of ferromagnetic materials which can be attracted by the MR magnet core.

• Thermal injury and burns may occur due to the metal components of the device which can heat during MR scanning.

• The device may generate artifacts in the MR image.

• The device may not function properly due to the strong magnetic and radio frequency fields generated by the MR scanner.

Performing Routine Maintenance

SureSigns VS4 Service Guide 2-1

Routine Safety and Operational Checks

Philips recommends that you regularly:

• Visually inspect the monitor exterior for damage.

• Ensure the vents are free of dust.

• Inspect the monitor labels for legibility.

If the labels on the rear case are not legible, you must replace the rear case. If the serial number label is not legible, you must return the monitor for label replacement. For detailed information, see “Visual Test” on page 3-13.

Philips recommends that you perform certain test and verification checks at least once a year and after each repair. For complete information about performing verification testing and checks, see Chapter 3, “Performance Verification Testing.”

Cleaning and Disinfecting the Monitor

To clean or disinfect your monitor, use only cleaning agents approved by Philips. For complete cleaning instructions, see the Instructions for Use provided with your monitor.

Maintaining the Battery

About the Battery

The rechargeable lithium ion battery used in the monitor is a smart battery with built-in circuitry that communicates battery status information to the monitor. Battery power lasts a minimum of four hours of continuous monitoring with no printing and one NBP measurement every 15 minutes.

Observe these guidelines:

• If a battery shows damage or signs of leakage, replace it immediately.

• Never use a faulty battery in the monitor.

• Never dispose of the battery in a normal waste container.

• Never leave a battery inside the monitor if it is not used for a long period of time.

• Never store a battery that is more than 50% charged.

Note — For information about the battery status indicators, see the Instructions for Use provided

with your monitor.

Viewing Battery Information

As a battery ages, its capacity decreases and the battery status indicator becomes increasingly less accurate, relative to the total number of charges and discharges. Select the Battery Info button to display information about the battery.

Maintaining the Battery

Reconditioning the Battery

Reconditioning the battery reduces the Max Error value, and in turn, increases the accuracy of the Relative Charge. Philips recommends that you condition the battery by fully discharging and recharging it when the Max Error is 10% or greater.

Note — If the battery does not recharge after four reconditioning cycles, replace it.

Replacing the Battery

Replace the battery if the following conditions occur:

• After reconditioning, if the monitor operates for less than one hour on a fully charged battery before the low battery (Low Batt) alarm occurs, or

•The Max Error cannot be brought <= 8% after several recondition cycles, or

•The Full Capacity is 50% or less of the Design Capacity.

Warning Do not connect a patient to a monitor running in Demo mode. Values represented in Demo mode

do not represent measurements from a patient connected to the monitor, and may lead to incorrect diagnoses.

Demo mode is used for demonstrating the monitor without monitoring parameters. Demo mode simulates all patient parameters and generates alarms when alarm settings are exceeded.

By default, the check box is cleared.

Caution Entering Demo mode clears the patient data.

Note — You cannot access the System Diagnostics menu when the monitor is in Demo mode.

To put the monitor in Demo mode:
