Handling the packaging
material
examinations must be set up by the
physician, and their results must be
considered.
– The responsibility for diagnosis and treatment
lies with the treating physician.
CAUTION!
Patient hazard
In order to avoid misinterpretations, test results
for medical use must be displayed and used in
SI units (Weight: kilogrammes, length: metres)
only. Some devices offer the ability to display
test results in other units. This is only an additio-
nal function.
– Use the results exclusively in SI units.
– The use of measurement results in non-SI
units is the sole responsibility of the user.
ATTENTION!
Inconsistent measuring results
• Before you electronically save measurement
values determined using this device and use
them further (e.g. in seca PC software or in a
hospital information system), make sure that
the measurement values are plausible.
• If measurement values are transmitted to seca
PC software or a hospital information system,
make sure prior to further use that the meas-
urement values are plausible and are assigned
to the correct patient.
WARNING!
Risk of suffocation
Packaging material made of plastic foil (bags) is
a choking hazard.
– Keep packaging material out of reach of
children.
– In the event that the original packing material
may not be available anymore, only use
plastic bags with security holes in order to
reduce the risk of suffocation.
NOTE
Keep the original packing material for future use
(e.g. returning for maintenance service).
