Customer Required Reading
This section will tell you what operative procedures should be paid close attention to, how to avoid abnormal
operation, and what possible detrimental risks might occur to this series of monitors or animal when you use this
series of monitors.
The company‘s Imperatives: please read the manual thoroughly before using this series of monitors, and perform
the operative procedures according to the instructions described in it; The company won‘t take any safe, reliable
or performance guarantee responsibility for abnormal monitor phenomena or animal body injures caused by
violation of the requirements concerning monitor application or maintenance indicated in this section and the user
manual, nor offer free maintenance for such breakdowns. Once again, the company reminds you to read the
contents of the current section and the manual before use.
For animals ＜10 kg and animals ＞20 kg model is prohibited for blood pressure measurement. Or,
the pressure may cause limb injuries, or even limb necrosis.
This series of monitors can only be used for one animal at a time.
Customer required reading blood pressure monitoring is prohibited for animals with a serious
hemorrhage tendency or sickle cells. Or, local hemorrhage may occur.
A cuff is prohibited for an infused or intubated limb or an area with local skin injuries. Or, it may lead
to limb injuries.
Continuous use of the ear-clamping or tongue-clamping pulse oxygen sensor may cause discomfort
or a pressure pain, especially for animals with microcirculation disturbance. No more than two-hour
clamping for the tongue.
More careful inspection of the pulse oxygen sensor measurement site should be done for animals
with special needs. The sensor cannot be placed on edematous or fragile tissues.
This series of monitors must be well grounded in order to prevent possible electrical danger as well
as to secure a good ECG signal quality.
Although all animal contact parts of this series of monitors have been approved by bio-compatibility
tests, some individuals may still have allergies to monitors parts. The application of this series of
monitors must be stopped for animals that have allergies to monitors.
All measurement cords and plastic tubes should be kept away from the animal’s neck in order to
avoid asphyxia caused by neck winding.
Accessories cannot be replaced indiscriminately. When accessory replacement is necessary, an
accessory of the same type provided by the manufacturer or approved for this series of monitors
should be used. Only the accessories from the same manufacturer and of the same type can be
used for accessory replacement. Or, adverse consequences of safety and bio-compatibility may
occur.
Do not open the pulse oxygen sensor and look directly at the light device (as the infrared light can’t
be detected by eyes). The warning also applies to maintenance persons. The light may harm to your
eyes.
If this series of monitors falls accidentally, its use must be stopped. Only after safety and technical

Customer Required Reading

index tests prove this series of monitors is still operational, it can go on to being used.
When blood pressure is measured, the manual mode is recommended by the manufacturer. If the
automated or continuous model is selected, a qualified observer should be present.
For animals with pacemakers, heart rate meter may be in asystole or arrhythmia the pacemaker
pulse count. Do not rely solely on heart rate alarm. Should be closely monitoring animals with
pacemaker.
Do not modify this series of equipments without authorization of the manufacturer. If this series of
equipments are modified, appropriate inspection and testing must be conducted to ensure
continued safe use of the equipment.
Please read clinical limitations and contraindication information carefully.

The alarm sound volume and limits should be set up according to the animal’s actual status.
Veterinary monitoring cannot only depend on the sound alarm system. When the sound volume is
tuned down to the minimum, it may place the animal in danger. Therefore, close attention should be
paid to the animal’s actual clinical status.
The physiological waveform, physiological parameters and alarm information displayed by this
series of monitors can only be used as reference by the physician. They cannot be directly used as
the basis for clinical treatment.
If there are any anomalies during use, please turn off this series of monitors immediately for
examination.
Please place the power source and all types of accessory electric cables carefully, in case of they
entangle the animal; the winding may even cause the animal’s asphyxia, and electrical disturbance
between them.
Handling of the packing materials should follow the associated local regulations, or the hospital
waste treatment rules. The packing materials should be placed out of reach of children.
