WARNINGS
• Always refer to the oximeter module operator's manual for complete instructions or additional
instructions.
• Ensure the cable is physically intact, with no broken or frayed wires or damaged parts. Visually inspect the
cable and discard if cracks or discoloration are found.
• All sensors and cables are designed for use with specific monitors. Verify the compatibility of the monitor,
cable and sensor before use, otherwise degraded performance and/or patient injury can result.
• Carefully route patient cable to reduce the possibility of patient entanglement or strangulation.
• Failure to properly connect the sensor or the oximeter module to the cable will result in intermittent
readings, inaccurate results, or no reading.
• To avoid damage to the cable, always hold it by the connector rather than the cable when connecting or
disconnecting either end.
• To prevent damage, do not soak or immerse the sensor or cable in any liquid solution. Do not attempt to
sterilize the cable or sensor.
• Do not attempt to reprocess, recondition or recycle Masimo sensors or patient cables as these processes
may damage the electrical components, potentially leading to patient harm.
