Safety Test Procedures

The test procedures outlined in this section are to be used only for verifying the safe installation or service
of the product in its place of use. The safety tests described here refer specifically to installation, setup,
repair and upgrade activities, and not to the aspects of safety that have already been tested during final
acceptance at the factory.
Use safety testers complying with IEC 60601-1 internationally, or any local regulations applicable to the
country of the installation. For safety test procedures see the operation instructions of the safety tester
used, and follow any local regulations.
If you use the Metron safety tester, the Metron Report should print results as detailed in this chapter,
along with other data.
