CAUTION: System test should always be done in advance of prepping patient for surgery to minimize the risk to patient in case of system
malfunction.
WARNING: WHEN ULTRASOUND OUTPUT POWER IS ON, DO NOT TOUCH THE PROBE. DOING SO MAY RESULT IN INJURY.
WARNING: IF PROBE IS CRACKED OR DAMAGED, SURFACE TEMPERATURE CAN BECOME VERY HOT, AND PROBE MAY PRESENT A
BURN HAZARD TO PATIENT OR CLINICIAN IF TOUCHED. EXERCISE CARE IN TESTING AND HANDLING OF PROBES AT ALL
TIMES. PROBES SHOULD BE TESTED FOR TEMPERATURE RISE AT VARIOUS INTERVALS DURING PROCEDURE TO PREVENT
BURNING OF PATIENT DUE TO DAMAGED OR CRACKED PROBE.
WARNING: DO NOT TOUCH PROBE WHILE IT IS ACTIVATED.
WARNING: IF THE PROBE HAS BEEN USED IN A SURGICAL SITE, DO NOT ACTIVATE THE ULTRASONICS WITH THE PROBE IN OPEN AIR
WITHOUT FIRST WIPING THE PROBE LENGTH WITH A STERILE WIPE TO REMOVE ANY FLUIDS.
WARNING: TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE THE CASE COVER FROM THE GENERATOR OR THE TRANSDUCER. THERE ARE
NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE ANY OF THESE COMPONENTS.
CAUTION: Ultrasonic energy is inhibited if excessive physical force is applied to the probe; use only enough force to guide the probe to
the removal site and to advance the probe through the tissue. Do not force the probe; allow the ultrasonic action to
do all tissue cutting or coagulation.
WARNING: IF ELECTRICAL FAULT INDICATOR ILLUMINATES AND/OR ELECTRICAL FAULT ALARM SOUNDS, IMMEDIATELY TURN POWER
SWITCH (REAR PANEL OF GENERATOR) TO THE OFF POSITION. REMOVE PROBE FROM SURGICAL SITE. DO NOT TOUCH
METALLIC PARTS OF TRANSDUCER, PROBE OR GENERATOR WHILE FAULT IS INDICATED.
CAUTION: Be certain to clear debris from all surfaces by brushing. Failure to do so may hinder sterilization of units.
CAUTION: Do not use ultrasonic cleaners to clean transducer or probes. Use manual cleaning techniques only.
WARNING: EXAMINE THE TRANSDUCER AND PATIENT CABLE FOR OBVIOUS SIGNS OF DAMAGE (CRACKS, GOUGES, CUTS IN CABLE,
ETC.). REMOVE ANY ITEMS WHICH SHOW SIGNS OF DAMAGE FROM SERVICE AFTER CLEANING AND STERILIZING. MARK
DAMAGED ITEMS CLEARLY TO PREVENT FUTURE USE BEFORE DISPOSAL.
CAUTION: Do not immerse the generator. The unit is not sealed against liquids and damage to equipment may result.
WARNING: IF AFTER FUSE REPLACEMENT THE FUSE FAILS WHEN THE GENERATOR IS REACTIVATED, DISCONTINUE USE OF THE
DEVICE AND CONTACT UNITED STATES SURGICAL.
CAUTION: Before using loose packing materials, such as foam pellets, shredded paper, or excelsior, be sure to wrap the components(s)
separately in plastic bags or film or other protective wrapping.
