:
SHOCK HAZARD Ensure that conductive parts of the electrodes or lead wires do not
come in contact with other conductive parts.
This would cancel the protection provided by the isolated signal input.
:
CONDUCTIVE PARTS Keep the conductive parts of lead electrodes and associated parts
away from other conductive parts, including earth.
Use only electrodes and contact agents recommended by GE Healthcare. The signal
quality on the lead-check screen will not be indicated until the RL/N electrode has
been applied. When RA/ R becomes disconnected, the system will display Limb Lead
Disconnected.
