4. Inspect the return electrode to ensure complete skin contact
and that no creases or air bubbles are present. If complete
skin contact is not achieved, or if the return electrode is
creased, remove and replace with a new Model 8934 Return
Electrode.
Warning: Do not use an improperly applied or connected
return electrode. Faulty application of the return electrode, or
partial connections, may result in low system output or failure
of the equipment to function properly or patient injury (eg,
burns).
Caution: Place monitoring electrodes as far from the return
electrode as possible. Needle monitoring electrodes are not
recommended. In any case, the use of monitoring systems
incorporating high frequency (HF) current limiting devices are
recommended. Erroneous readings can occur if monitoring
electrodes are placed too close to the return electrode.
5. Connect the return electrode when the patient and the
system are ready to begin treatment. Connect the return
electrode cable by fully inserting the connector into the
connector port on the RF generator therapy panel.
