Safety
2.3 Operator’s responsibility
The operator is the natural or legal person who operates the
product himself for commercial or economic purposes or who
leaves its operation to a third party. The operator bears the legal
product responsibility for protecting personnel or third parties.
Medical devices may only be operated and applied according to
their intended purpose and the general rules of technology.
Medical devices may only be operated or used by persons who
have the training or knowledge required to do this.
Instruction regarding the proper handling of the medical device is
required. However, training is not required when the medical
device is self-explanatory or instructions for a product with the
same design have already been provided.
Medical devices connected to each other as well as medical
devices connected to accessories including software, or other
objects, may only be operated and used when the specific
combination is suitable with regard to its intended purpose and
the safety of the patients, users, employees or third parties.
Before the medical device is applied, the user must ensure that the
product is operational and in an appropriate state and the user
must further have read the instructions for use as well as other,
attached, safety-relevant information and maintenance
instructions.
The instructions for use and the instructions provided with the
medical device must be stored in a way that ensures that the user
can access the information required for using the medical device
at any time.
The operator must report all serious incidents that occur in
relation to the product to the manufacturer and the responsible
authority.
2.4 Use of high-frequency (HF) surgical equipment
The operating table is electrically conductive in accordance with
the applicable regulations and standards. The operating table is
suitable for the use of high-frequency surgical equipment.
Electrically motorized operating table functions may be
interrupted if high-frequency surgical devices are used
simultaneously.
There is a risk of burns to the patient when high-frequency
surgical devices are used. The following safety measures must be
followed in all cases:
– Follow the instruction manual provided by the equipment
manufacturer.
– Position the patient only on dry towels or drapes. The patient
must not come into contact with damp materials.
– Position the patient on the operating table so that he or she is
insulated from metal parts (operating table, accessories) and
conductive pads or tubes.

Safety
2.5 Use of defibrillators
The operating table is electrically conductive in accordance with
the applicable regulations and standards. The operating table is
suitable for the use of defibrillators and defibrillator monitors.
There is a risk of burns to the patient and the user when
defibrillators are used. Staff are at risk of electric shock. The
following safety measures must be followed in all cases:
– Follow the instruction manual provided by the equipment
manufacturer.
– All accessories not specifically protected against defibrillation
must be removed from the patient's body before defibrillation.
– Prior to defibrillation, all personnel must move clear of the
operating table.
2.6 Malfunction caused by other devices
The medical or non-medical devices from other manufacturers
may use the same frequency range as the operating table and
infra-red remote control. If pieces of equipment with the same
frequency range or a multiple of the frequency range is used in the
same room, they can influence each other. This may therefore
cause malfunctions of the operating table.
Examples of potential sources of interference:
– Electronic control gear (ECG) for fluorescent lamps
–HFsurgicaldevices
– Wireless remote control for other devices (e.g. monitors)
– Very bright indoor lighting
2.7 What to do in the event of a malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, the operating table has the following
functions available, depending on the problem that has occurred:
– Emergency operation
– Reset
– Emergency unlocking of the parking brake
Regardless of this, if the electrical function on the operating table
fails, the operating table should be disconnected from the power
supply and Technical Customer Service notified.
2.7.1 Emergency operation of the operating table
Emergency mode on the operating table ensures the
Trendelenburg function in the event of a malfunction. Emergency
mode must be manually activated by the user using the column
keypad.
Operating the operating table in emergency mode:
– The Trendelenburg function can be performed with the
column keypad. The back plate and leg plate function can be
carried out with the remote control, provided it has not
malfunctioned. In emergency mode, none of the other
functions are available.
– Operation of the operating table with the infra-red remote
control and foot control is not possible.

18 4990824_030_02 – 2071995 – 12-DEC-2019
Safety

not active.
Activate the emergency mode in the event of a malfunction:
1. Press the [i20] key on the column keypad for at least 10
seconds. A warning tone sounds and constantly repeats.
Release the key once the warning tone stops. The display
next to the [i20] key lights up.
2. Continue the ongoing operation through to the end.
Attention: do not extend the operating table functions to the
end position.
3. Notify the Technical Customer Service if the operating table
develops a fault. The operating table must not continue to be
used in emergency mode.
The operating table can be returned to normal mode if the
operating table is fully functional and there are no faults. To do
this, switch the operating table off and back on again. Hold the off
button down for at least 3 seconds.
2.7.2 Reset
If the operating table reacts unexpectedly to a control, switch off
the operating table and switch it back on. If you cannot even
switch it off, press the reset button:
1. Push through the red circle on the information notice and
press the [38] key below it.
The operating table is switched off. Switch-off takes place
regardless of whether the operating table is in battery- or
mains-powered mode.
2. Switch the operating table back on via the column keypad [i1].
If an error code appears on the display on the running gear,
or an error message appears in the display on the remote
control, the operating table must not be used.

2.7.3 Emergency unlocking of the parking brake
If the parking brake on the operating table cannot be released with
the remote control or column keypad, the emergency unlock
function on the running gear can be used. The button is located at
the head end of the running gear and is covered by an information
notice. After an emergency unlock, Technical Customer Service
must be notified.
Releasing the parking brake on the operating table with the
emergency unlock:
1. Push through the red circle on the information notice and
press the [39] key below it.
The jack props in the wheels are retracted and the operating
table is freely mobile.
It is possible that the operating table can only continue to be
used to a limited degree.
2. Notify the Technical Customer Service.
2.7.4 Failure of the operating table's electrical functions
According to the current market state of the technological art,
failure of the operating table cannot be completely ruled out, with
the result that the electrical functions on the operating table are
no longer available. In this rare case, stop using the operating table
and notify Technical Customer Service.
