PRODUCT ACCESSORIES
1. One lanyard
2. Two AAA batteries
3. One user's manual
BATTERY INSTALLATION
1. Install two AAA batteries into the battery compartment. Match the plus
(+) and minus (-) signs in the compartment. If the polarities are not
matched, damage may be caused to the oximeter.
2. Slide the battery door cover horizontally along the arrow (Figure 4).
Notes : Please remove the batteries if the pulse oximeter will not be used
for long periods of time.
USING THE LANYARD
1. Thread thinner end of the lanyard through the loop.
2. Thread thicker end of the lanyard through the threaded end before pulling
it tightly (Figure 5).
WARNINGS !
• Keep the oximeter away from young children. Small items such as the
battery door, battery, and lanyard are choking hazards.
• Do not hang the lanyard from the device's electrical wire.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
1. Replace the batteries in a timely manner when low voltage lamp is lighted.
2. Clean surface of the fingertip oximeter before it is used in diagnosis for
patients.
3. Remove the batteries if the oximeter is not operated for a long time.
4. It is best to store the product in -20°C ~ +55°C and ≤93% humidity.
5. Keep in a dry place. Extreme moisture may affect oximeter lifetime and
may cause damage.
6. Dispose of battery properly; follow any applicable local battery disposal laws.

Immediate, acute danger to life
Cleaning the fingertip pulse oximeter
Please use medical alcohol to clean the silicone touching the finger inside
of oximeter with a soft cloth dampened with 70% isopropyl alcohol. Also
clean the being tested finger using alcohol before and after each test. Do
not pour or spray liquids onto the oximeter, and do not allow any liquid to
enter any openings in the device. Allow the oximeter to dry thoroughly
before reuse. The fingertip pulse oximeter requires no routine calibration
or maintenance other than replacement of batteries.
The use life of the device is five years when it is used for 15 measurements
every day and 10 minutes per one measurement. Stop using and contact
local service center if one of the following cases occurs :
• An error in the Possible Problems and solutions is displayed on screen.
• The oximeter cannot be powered on in any case and not the reasons of battery.
• There is a crack on the oximeter or damage on the display resulting rea-
dings cannot be identified; the spring is invalid; or the key is unresponsive
or unavailable.
A functional tester cannot be used to assess the accuracy of a pulse oxi-
meter monitor or sensor. Clinical testing is used to establish the SpO
curacy. The measured arterial hemoglobin saturation value (SpO
sensors is compared to arterial hemoglobin oxygen (SaO
mined from blood samples with a laboratory CO-oximeter. The accuracy of
the sensors in comparison to the CO-oximeter samples measured over the
SpO
range of 70 – 100%. Accuracy data is calculated using the root-mean-
2
squared (Arms value) for all subjects, per ISO 9919:2005, Medical Electrical
Equipment–Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential per-
formance of pulse oximeter equipment for medical use. A functional tester
is used to measure how accurately Fingertip Pulse Oximeter is reproducing
the specified calibration curve and the PR accuracy. The model of func-
tional tester is Index2 FLUKE simulator and the version is 2.1.3.
