The monitor is intended to be used in outpatient departments and emergency
treatment rooms of hospitals, community clinics, private clinics and other medical
institutions. It is not intended for helicopter transport, hospital ambulance or home
use.

1.3 Work mode
The monitor has two working modes: Clinic Mode and Monitor Mode.
1.3.1 Clinic Mode
Clinic Mode refers to that the monitor is used for monitoring of a number of
patients one by one by outpatient doctor. Each patient has his/her own ID number, and
the monitoring results of patients are saved according to their ID numbers. When a
patient with the same ID number appears again, the device will automatically find out
the previous monitoring data, and will add current data to the previous one.
Clinic mode may be used in one of the following occasions:
1. Medical personnel are present, e.g. monitoring of patients by outpatient doctor
or house-call doctor;
2. A number of measurements of many patients, e.g. monitoring of patients by
physical checkup doctor;
3. Rounds of wards, e.g. doctor or nurse can monitor relevant physiological
status of patient by the monitor when checking in ward.
1.3.2 Monitor Mode
Monitor Mode refers to that the monitor is used to monitor the same patient in
ward for long time. In this mode, the small-sized monitor is used to monitor the
patient's SpO2, NIBP and CO2.
Monitor mode may be used in one of the following occasions:

Chapter 2 Safety
2.1 Safety Information
Warning
Indicates a potential hazard or unsafe practice that, if not avoided, will
result in death or serious injury.
Caution
Indicates a potential hazard or unsafe practice that, if not avoided, could
result in minor personal injury or product/property damage.
Note
Provides application tips or other useful information to ensure that you
get the most from your product.
2.1.1 Warning
Warning
The monitor is intended for use only by clinical professionals or under
their guidance. It must only be used by persons who have received
adequate training in its use. Anyone unauthorized or untrained must not
perform any operations on it.
The monitor can only be applied to one patient at one time.
Before using, please check the connecting cables and accessories are in
correct working order and operating condition.
Please connect the monitor to a socket with protective earth. If the socket
does not have protective earth conductor, please do not use the socket and

Vital Signs Monitor User’s Manual
Chapter 2-2
use battery to provide power to the monitor.
To avoid explosion hazard, do not use the monitor in the presence of
flammable anesthetics, vapors or liquids.
Do not open the monitor housings; electric shock hazard may exist. All
servicing and future upgrades must be carried out by the personnel
trained and authorized by manufacturer only.
When using the monitor with electrosurgical units (ESU), make sure the
patient is safe.
If you spill liquid onto the equipment or accessories, particularly if there
is a chance that it can get inside the tubing or the measurement device,
contact your service personnel. Please insure the measurement device and
its accessories dry during using electrosurgery and defibrillator.
Do not come into contact with the patient during defibrillation. Otherwise
serious injury or death could result.
Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system for patient
monitoring. Adjustment of alarm volume to a low level or off may result
in hazard to the patient. Remember that alarm settings should be
customized according to different patient situations and always keeping
the patient under close surveillance is the most reliable way for safe
patient monitoring.
The physiological data and alarm messages displayed on the monitor are
for reference only and cannot be directly used for diagnostic
interpretation.
To avoid inadvertent disconnection, route all cables in a way to prevent a
stumbling hazard. Wrap and secure excess cabling to avoid risk of
entanglement or strangulation by patient or personnel.
2.1.2 Caution
Caution
To ensure patient safety, use only parts and accessories specified in this
