5.5 Electrical Safety

WARNING
▪ The i500 system is a Class I device.
▪ To prevent electric shock, the i500 system must only be connected to a power source
with a protective earth connection. If you are unable to insert the i500-supplied plug into
the main outlet, contact a qualified electrician to replace the plug or outlet. Do not try to
circumvent these safety guidelines.
▪ The i500 system only uses RF energy internally. The amount of RF radiation is low and
does not interfere with surrounding electromagnetic radiation.
▪ There is a risk of electric shock if you attempt to access the inside of the i500 system.
Only qualified service personnel should access the system.
▪ Do not connect the i500 system to a regular power strip or extension cord as these
connections are not as safe as grounded outlets. Failure to adhere to these safety
guidelines may result in the following hazards:
▪ The total short circuit current of all connected equipment may exceed the limit specified
in EN / IEC 60601-1.
▪ The impedance of the ground connection may exceed the limit specified in EN / IEC
60601-1.
▪ Do not place liquids such as beverages near the i500 system and avoid spilling any liquid
on the system.
▪ Condensation due to changes in temperature or humidity can cause moisture buildup
inside the i500 unit, which may damage the system. Before connecting the i500 system
to a power supply, be sure to keep the i500 device at room temperature for at least two
hours to prevent condensation. If condensation is visible on the product surface, the i500
should be left at room temperature for more than 8 hours.
▪ You should only disconnect the i500 system from the power supply via its power cord.
▪ The radiation characteristics of the i500 system makes it suitable for use in industry and
hospitals.(CISPR 11 class A). If the i500 system is used in a residential environment (CISPR
11 class B), it may not provide adequate protection from radio frequency communications.
