Answers for life.
BatteriesThe batteries shall always be sufficiently charged.
Caution
Weak batteries of wireless footswitchDiscontinuation of interventional treatment◆ Make sure that the batteries are charged before starting an
examination.
◆ In case of empty battery, use the provided power adapter to continuetreatment.
The batteries of the wireless footswitch must be exchanged once a year byauthorized and trained staff. Please call Siemens Service. Unauthorizedexchange may cause severe damage.Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible forcompliance could void the user´s authority to operate the equipment.
Cleaning and disinfection Caution
Use of harsh cleaning agents, liquids or sprays.Risk of electrical hazard or damage to the system◆ Use only substances for cleaning and disinfection, which are
recommended.
◆ Do not let cleaning liquids seep into the openings of the system, e.g. airopenings, gaps between covers.
◆ Observe the following cleaning and disinfection instructions.
Cleaning agents for all LCD displays, Large Display and ArtisCockpit onlyThe following active ingredient classes can be used for LCD displays:

Special instructions for all LCD displays, Large Display, and forArtis Cockpit only
◾ LCD displays are very sensitive to mechanical damage.Avoid scratches, bumps, etc.
◾ LCD displays are very sensitive to liquids.Longer contact with the liquids can cause discoloration or can leavecalcium residue on the surface.Droplets that run down between the panel and the frame can causedamage or total failure of the panel!
1 If possible, immediately clean any droplets of liquid.2 If a cleaning agent is sprayed directly on the display surface, make sure that
any droplets that run down are wiped off with a microfiber cloth before theyreach the edge of the panel.
3 If the front of the panel is soiled, clean it with a microfiber cloth and, ifnecessary, with a glass cleaning agent. Clean housing parts with a cleaningagent for plastics only.
Cleaning agents for all other system parts
Some substances contained in disinfectants are known to be hazardous tohealth. Their concentration in the air must not exceed the legally definedlimit.Always follow the manufacturer's instructions when using the disinfectants.

Instructions for cleaning and disinfection
Sprays can penetrate the interior of equipment.It can cause damage to electronic components and the formation offlammable mixtures of air/solution vapor.
Use gloves to avoid infection.1 Before cleaning the system, block radiation and block unit movements.
( Page 228 Blocking radiation)
( Page 229 Blocking unit movements)
2 Use a lukewarm detergent solution and a soft cloth to remove slightcontamination.
3 Clean all contaminated parts and all parts which may or have come intocontact with the patient.
4 Remove contrast medium spots best of all with warm water.5 Remove major contamination first with a cloth soaked in alcohol, then wipe
off with clear water.
6 After using disinfectants, always wipe off with clear water.

7 Remove any contamination of Velcro tapes using a plastic comb.8 Keep the ventilation slots of all components unobstructed.9 Regularly clean the dust off all rails and joints etc.
SterilizationPlease observe your hospital's regulations concerning sterilization.
Information about unit movementsBecause of the possible speed of movement of the stand and C-arm and thetabletop, this system must be operated with particular care.
Collision protectionFor reasons of safety the systems are equipped with collision sensors.( Page 138 Safety equipment)If one of the collision sensors is activated, further unit movements are blockedand a message indicating that appears.
Dead man's gripAll unit movements are controlled with a dead man's grip (DMG), that is,movements are performed only while the operating element is being actuated.In the event of danger, the movement can be stopped immediately by releasingthe dead man's grip.
Danger of crushingThe patient and operating personnel must grip only the handles which areintended for the proper handling of the equipment or positioning of the patient.When it is not possible, attention must be paid to possible risks of injury bycrushing in the vicinity of moving parts.◾ Pay special attention to the risks of crushing fingers/hands between moving
parts and their guide openings.◾ Before performing unit movements make certain that the patients do not
grasp the frame of the tabletop.
Abnormal movementsIf any part of the system moves although that movement was not released, forexample, if the display ceiling suspension moves downward by itself, theremight be a fault.◾ Shut down your system and call Siemens Service.
