Safety precautions

External equipment intended for connection to signal input, signal
output, or other connectors, must comply with the relevant IEC
standard (EN/IEC 60601-1 series for medical electrical equipment). In
addition, all such combinations (systems) must comply with the
standard IEC 60601-1-1, Safety requirements for medical electrical
systems.

Equipment not complying to IEC 60601 must be kept outside the
patient environment, as defined in the standard as at least 1.5 meters
from the patient or the patient support.

Any person who connects external equipment to signal input, signal
output, or other connectors has formed a system and is therefore
responsible for the system to comply with the requirements of IEC
60601-1-1. If in doubt, speak with a qualified technician.

Safety tips

• Never open the display case, even when the power is off. Do not drop or
push objects into the display case. Dangerous voltage inside may cause
electric shock or death.

• Use the grounded power supply and the video cable supplied by Planar.
Replace the power supply or video cable if damaged.

• Be sure the display is electrically grounded. Connect the third grounding
pin on the US power cord to a grounded outlet. The European power
cord does not have a third grounding pin, but it must be plugged into a
grounded outlet. If the power cord connects directly into the computer,
make sure the computer is grounded.

• Keep the display dry if it is part of a surgical system. The display lacks
protection against liquids or spills.

• Do not plug the power supply into an overloaded AC outlet or extension
cord. Overloaded AC outlets and cords can result in electric shock or fire.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet during thunderstorms.

• Do not place magnetic devices, such as motors, near the display.

• In locations where 240V outlets are used, use the E4c display only on
a center-tapped, 240V, single-phase supply.

GROUNDING RELIABILITY CAN ONLY BE ACHIEVED WHEN EQUIPMENT IS
CONNECTED TO AN EQUIVALENT RECEPTABLE MARKED “HOSPITAL ONLY” OR
“HOSPITAL GRADE.”

Unpacking and handling tips

The Dome E4c display is a precision instrument that requires proper
care to maintain adherence to specification. Unpack the display
carefully, then set up and handle the unit properly to avoid damage
to the LCD panel.

• Use both hands to grasp the display case when lifting it from
the shipping carton, but avoid touching the screen.

• Do not apply pressure to the screen or touch the screen with
bare fingers or objects. Pressure can affect image quality.

• Allow the display to warm to room temperature before turning it
on. Avoid sudden temperature changes in environment to prevent
condensation.

• Secure the display onto the Planar-supplied wall or cart mounting
hardware to ensure safety if you elect not to use the desk stand.

• Do not set up the display near strong light or heat sources.

• Do not block the vents on the display or install the display in a built­in enclosure. Blocked vents cause excessive heat inside the display.

• Do not remove the back cover or disassemble the display. There are
no user-serviceable parts inside.

Shipping/storing the display

Keep the display in its shipping container until installation. Return the
display to its original container whenever you need to store the unit,
move it to another location, or return it for repair.

Cleaning the display unit

Periodically wipe the display housing with a soft, dry cloth to prevent
dust and other material from clogging the venting holes.

The display screen can be damaged by excessive scrubbing and by
incompatible cleaning solvents. Dampen a clean, soft lint-free cloth
with distilled de-ionized water and wipe the screen gently. Use a
clean, soft, dry lint-free cloth to remove any residue.

To remove grease or other organic contaminants from the display
screen, use a 50% to 70% IPA (isopropyl alcohol) solution sparingly.
Never use acetone, as it can damage the antistatic hard coating and
void the warranty.
