Electromagnetic environment
The medical device uses RF energy only for its internal function. Therefore, its
RF emissions are very low and it is unlikely that nearby electronic devices will
be affected.
The medical device is intended for usage in all facilities including residential
buildings and such facilities that are directly (without a transformer) connected
to the same low voltage network as the residential building.

Electromagnetic environment
Floors are preferably made of wood, concrete
or ceramic tiles. In the case of synthetic floor
covering, the relative humidity should be at
least 30%.
The quality of the supply voltage should corre-
spond to that of a typical business or hospital
environment.
The quality of the supply voltage should corre-
spond to that of a typical business or hospital

Devices with strong line-frequency magnetic
fields (transformer stations, etc.) should not be
operated in the vicinity of the medical device.
The quality of the supply voltage should corre-
spond to that of a business or hospital environ-
ment. If the user requires continued function-
ing during interruptions in the power supply,
we recommend powering the medical device
from an uninterruptible power supply or a bat-
tery.
