With a mains adapter connected, the battery is automatically charged, independent of the state of the
on/off switch [1]. We recommend to use the apparatus with the mains adapter connected whenever
possible. This will increase the service life of the battery.
We recommend to explicitly use Enraf-Nonius supplied batteries of type 2601.016. The battery contains
material that is noxious to the environment. You should attend the local regulations when disposing the
battery. See also chapter 6.4.

Installation
•
Do not install the apparatus in a location near a heat source such as a radiator.
•
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, rain, excessive dust, moisture, mechanical vibrations and shocks.
•
Cordless telephones should not be used in close proximity of the apparatus.
•
This apparatus should not be used in so-called "wet- rooms" (hydrotherapy rooms).
•
The apparatus has to be installed in such way that liquid cannot enter.
Should any liquid ingress into the housing of this equipment, unplug the apparatus from the wall socket (if
connected) and have it checked by an authorised expert.
4.7
Electromagnetic interference
•
Operation in close proximity (i.e. less than 2 meters) to working short-wave or microwave therapy units
may produce instability in the Endomed 482 output.
•
To prevent electromagnetic interference, we strongly advise using separate mains groups (phases) for
the Endomed 482 and the short-wave or microwave equipment, and a distance of at least 2 meters is
kept between the Endomed 482 and the short-wave or microwave equipment.
•
Ensure that the mains cable of the short-wave/microwave unit does not come near the Endomed 482
or the patient.
If problems with electromagnetic interference persist, please contact your authorized distributor.
