4. If this apparatus is connected to one or more other devices with medical CE marking, to make
up a system or pack, the CE marking is only valid also for the combination if the supplier has
issued a declaration stating that the requirements in the Medical Device Directive article 12
are fulfilled for the combination.
5. When the instrument is conneted to a PC be aware of not touching the PC and patient
simultaneously
1. Be sure to use only stimulation intensities, which will be acceptable for the patient.
2. The transducers (headphones, bone conductor, etc.) supplied with the instrument are
calibrated to this instrument - exchange of transducers requires a new calibration.
3. Airborne sound radiation of the bone vibrator may effect the measurement if no masking is
used. Therefore, masking is mandatory when using bone vibrator.
4. Although the instrument fulfils the relevant EMC requirements precautions should be taken to
avoid unnecessary exposure to electromagnetic fields, e.g. from mobile phones etc. If the
device is used adjacent to other equipment it must be observed that no mutual disturbance
appears.
5. Within the European Union it is illegal to dispose electric and electronic waste as unsorted
municipal waste. Electric and electronic waste may contain hazardous
substances and therefore has to be collected separately. Such products will be
marked with the crossed-out wheeled bin shown below. The cooperation of the
user is important in order to ensure a high level of reuse and recycling of
electric and electronic waste. Failing to recycle such waste products in an
appropriate way may endanger the environment and consequently the health of
human beings.
6. To prevent system faults take appropriate precautions to avoid PC viruses and similar.
