Enraf Nonius Radarmed 950+ Manuel D'utilisation page 38

ENGLISH
The patient must be asked to report an increase of the warmth sensation. The dosage must
then be reduced.
The dosage must not be increased under any circumstances as a result of any lessening of the
feeling of warmth during treatment.
When sensibility disorders is suspected the subjective warmth perception of the patient is
checked by means of the skin temperature. In order to avoid overheating in such cases, the
dosage must be adjusted with extreme care. Apply only small doses for short periods to the
treatment zone.
Microwave therapy should never be applied to parts of the body under local anaesthetic
because this might lead to local burns.
The expected effects are checked.
The patient is asked to comment subsequently on any reactions that may occur.
Follow the instructions in the user manual.
Read, understand and practice the precautionary and operating instructions.
Do not install the unit in a location near to a heat source such as a radiator.
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, rain, excessive dust, dampness, mechanical vibrations and
shocks.
Electronic equipment such as cordless telephones should not be used in close proximity of the
unit.
The unit has to be installed in such way that liquid cannot enter.

Do not cover the ventilation slots.
Should any liquid ingress into the housing of this equipment, unplug the unit from the wall
socket (if connected) and have it checked by an authorised expert.
Mains supply connections must comply with the national requirements regarding medical
rooms.
Prior to connection of this apparatus to the mains supply, check that the voltage and frequency
stated on the type plate correspond with the available mains supply.
For safety reasons the brakes on the wheels of the unit should be locked before the beginning
of a treatment.
When moving or transporting of the Radarmed 950+, never pull at the radiator or radiator arm,
to avoid the risk of tilting of the unit.
Operation in close proximity (i.e. less than 2 metres) to working shortwave units may produce
instability in the Radarmed output.
In order to avoid interference, shortwave units should not be allowed to radiate in the direction
of the microwave units, either in the same or in adjacent rooms.
To prevent electromagnetic interference, we strongly advise using separate mains groups
(phases) for the Radarmed and the shortwave equipment. Ensure that the mains cable of the
shortwave unit does not come near the Radarmed or the patient.
Electroacoustic equipment (e.g. radios, intercom systems, telephones systems, etc.) should be
screened against microwave irradiation if interference is experienced. It may be sufficient to
change the radiators direction of radiation.
Install according installation instruction.
The length of the HF-cable is critical. Therefore only use the by Enraf-Nonius supplied cable.
The radiators and HF-cable should be regularly inspected for damage and bad contacts.
Damaged radiators and a damaged HF-cable may not be used.
Have the unit checked annually by your supplier, or by another agency, authorised by Enraf-
Nonius.
Maintenance and all repairs should only be carried out by an authorised agency.
Opening of the equipment by unauthorised agencies is not allowed and will terminate any claim
to warranty.
Please ensure that you are well informed of the local rules and regulations regarding to the
removal of apparatus and accessories.
The unit is equipped with a safety earth and must be connected to a mains plug with earth
