Precautions

CAUTION!
Federal Law (only for U.S. market)
Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
CAUTION!
Indoor climate
Before switching on the device, sufficient time must have passed to adjust to the
indoor climate.
CAUTION!
When using the Aquilex System with tissue removal systems, e.g. MyoSure®, the
combination of low set pressures and excessive vacuum pressures may result in
a significant loss of intrauterine distension pressure which has the potential to
affect the visibility of the surgical field. Conversely, when employing a high dis-
tension pressure, the deactivation of the tissue removal system can lead to pres-
sure spikes that can exceed 150 mmHg.
CAUTION!
Do not use the covered power output at the rear of the irrigation pump unit.
CAUTION!
The system may only be connected with hysteroscopes designed for and featur-
ing the technical specification permitting such a combined use. Any utilized hys-
teroscopes must comply with the most recent versions of IEC 60601-2-18 and
ISO 8600.
CAUTION!
Check to ensure the available wall outlet voltage matches the data listed on the
label attached to the back of the pump. Incorrect voltage can cause errors and
malfunctions and may destroy the system.
CAUTION!
The device is transportable. The roller wheels of the Fluid Monitoring Unit (cart/
scale) are used for positioning at the place of use. To transport the device, re-
move all fluid bags from the hooks and make sure there are no containers or only
completely emptied containers on the cart/scale. Inflow and outflow tubes must
be completely removed. Make sure the power supply line does not touch the
ground and there are no other objects located on the Aquilex fluid control sys-
tem. Always use the handle to move the system safely.
