Warnings and cautions
WARNING Safety risk. Make frequent electrical and visual checks on cables,
sensors, and electrode wires. All cables, sensors, and electrode wires must be
inspected and properly maintained and in proper working order to allow the
equipment to function properly and to protect patients.
WARNING Safety risk. Place the monitor and accessories in locations where
they cannot harm the patient should they fall from a shelf or mount.
WARNING Fire and explosion hazard. Do not operate the monitor in the presence
of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen, or nitrous oxide; in oxygenenriched environments; or in any other potentially explosive environment.
WARNING Inaccurate measurement risk. Dust and particle ingress can affect the
accuracy of blood pressure measurements. Use the monitor in clean environments
to ensure measurement accuracy. If you notice dust or lint build-up on the monitor’s
vent openings, have the monitor inspected and cleaned by a qualified service
technician.
Caution To ensure that the monitor meets its performance specifications, store
and use the monitor in an environment that maintains the specified temperature and
humidity ranges.
Caution The monitor may not function properly if dropped or damaged. Protect it
from severe impact and shock. Do not use the monitor if you notice any signs of
damage.
Caution Do not connect more than one patient to a monitor or connect more than
one monitor to a patient.
Caution Do not operate the monitor in the presence of magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) or hyperbaric chambers.
Caution Do not autoclave the monitor. Autoclave accessories only if the
manufacturer’s instructions clearly approve it.
•If the monitor detects an unrecoverable problem, it displays an error message. For more
information see “Troubleshooting.”
•To ensure patient safety, use only accessories recommended or supplied by Welch Allyn. (See
the accessories list in the device’s directions for use). Always use accessories according to
your facility’s standards and according to the manufacturer’s recommendations and
instructions. Always follow the manufacturer’s directions for use.
•Welch Allyn recommends that only Welch Allyn service personnel or an authorized repair

Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
Caution Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic
components. Handle static-sensitive components only at static-safe workstation.
Caution Assume that all electrical and electronic components of the monitor are
static-sensitive.
Electrostatic discharge is a sudden current flowing from a charged object to another object or to
ground. Electrostatic charges can accumulate on common items such as foam drinking cups,
cellophane tape, synthetic clothing, untreated foam packaging material, and untreated plastic bags
and work folders, to name only a few.
Electronic components and assemblies, if not properly protected against ESD, can be permanently
damaged or destroyed when near or in contact with electrostatically charged objects. When you
handle components or assemblies that are not in protective bags and you are not sure whether
they are static-sensitive, assume that they are static-sensitive and handle them accordingly.
•Perform all service procedures in a static-protected environment. Always use techniques and
equipment designed to protect personnel and equipment from electrostatic discharge.
•Remove static-sensitive components and assemblies from their static-shielding bags only at
static-safe workstations—a properly grounded table and grounded floor mat—and only when
you are wearing a grounded wrist strap (with a resistor of at least 1 megohm in series) or other
grounding device.
•Use only grounded tools when inserting, adjusting, or removing static-sensitive components
and assemblies.
•Remove or insert static-sensitive components and assemblies only with monitor power turned
off.
•Insert and seal static-sensitive components and assemblies into their original static-shielding
bags before removing them from static-protected areas.
•Always test your ground strap, bench mat, conductive work surface, and ground cord before
removing components and assemblies from their protective bags and before beginning any
disassembly or assembly procedures.

The Device Status area displays a low-battery status message when 30 minutes of power remain
and again when 5 minutes remain.
You can expect new, fully charged batteries to have enough power for the following:
•Six-cell batteries provide approximately 26 patient exams.
•Nine-cell batteries provide approximately 47 patient exams.
NoteA patient exam includes NIBP, temperature, and SpO2 measurements at the rate of
The number of exams per charge decrease with the battery age.
Depending on the age of the battery, a 6-cell battery takes 3 hours and a 9-cell battery takes 4
hours to fully charge at room temperature.
Both batteries have a lifetime of 300 charge cycles or more, where a charge cycle is equal to fully
charged to discharged to fully charged at room temperature.
Battery charging is provided by the device’s internal power supply.
For a complete list of battery specifications, see the device’s directions for use.
