chemicals such as alcohol, thinner, benzene, etc.
If chemicals are spilled or evaporated, it may result in fire
or electric shock through contact with electric parts inside
the product. Also, some disinfectants are flammable. Be
sure to take care when using them.
Do not connect the equipment with anything other than
specified.
Doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
All patients with active implantable medical devices
should be kept away from the product.
Power supply Do not operate the product with power supply other
than the one indicated on the rating label.
Otherwise, it may result in fire or electric shock.
Do not handle the product with wet hands.
You may experience electric shock that could result in
death or serious injury.
Do not place heavy object on cables and cords. Do not
pull, bend, bundle, or step on them to prevent their
sheath from being damaged, and do not alter them
neither.
Doing so may damage the cords which could result in fire
or electric shock.
Do not supply power to more than one piece of product
with the same AC outlet.
Doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
Do not turn on system power when condensation has
formed on the equipment.
Doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
Do not connect multiple portable socket-outlets or
extension cords to the system.
Doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, this product must
only be connected to power supply with protective
earth.
Not doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
Do not connect the adapter cord when connect the
panel to patient.

Safety
KONICA MINOLTA,
INC..………….……………………………………………………………………………………………………
……………….………..11
Securely plug the power cord into the AC outlet.
If contact failure occurs, or if metal objects come into
contact with exposed metal prongs of the plug, fire or
electric shock may result.
Be sure to turn off the power before connecting or
disconnecting the cords.
Otherwise, you may get an electric shock that could result
in death or serious injury.
Be sure to hold the plug or connector to disconnect the
cord.
If you pull the cord, the core wire may be damaged,
resulting in fire or electric shock.
WARNING
Handling Never disassemble or modify the product. No
modification is allowed.
Doing so may result in fire or electric shock. Also, since
the product incorporates parts that may cause electric
shock as well as other hazardous parts, touching them may
cause death or serious injury.
Do not place anything on top of the product.
The object may fall and cause an injury. Also, if metal
objects such as needles or clips fall into the product, or if
liquid is spilled, it may result in fire or electric shock.
Do not hit or drop the product.
The product may be damaged if it receives a strong jolt,
which may result in fire or electric shock if it is used
without being repaired.
Do not put the product and pointed objects together.
The product may be damaged. If so, it should be used in
bucky.
Have the patient take a fixed posture and do not let the
patient touch parts unnecessarily.
If the patient touches connectors or switches, it may result
in electric shock or malfunction.
When a problem
occurs
Should any of the following occurs, immediately unplug
the power cord of adaptor or battery, and contact your
sales representative or local KONICA dealer:
When there is smoke, an odd smell or abnormal sound.
When liquid has been spilled into the equipment or a metal
object has entered through an opening.
When the product has been dropped and damaged.
Maintenance and
inspection Please turn off power of the product and unplug power
cord of adapter before cleaning.
Never use alcohol, ether and other flammable cleaning
agent for safety. Never use methanol, benzene and acid
because they would corrode the equipment.
Don’t dip the product into liquid.
Please make sure that surface & plugs are dry before
turning on.

Otherwise, it may result in fire or electric shock.
Clean the plug of the power cord periodically by
unplugging it from the AC outlet and removing dust or
dirt from the plug, its periphery and AC outlet with a
dry cloth.
If the cord is kept plugged in for a long time in a dusty,
humid or sooty place, dust around the plug will attract
moisture; this could cause insulation failure that may result
in a fire.
For safety reasons, be sure to turn off the power when
performing inspections indicated in this manual.
Otherwise, electric shocks may occur.
CAUTION
Installation and
environment of
use
Do not install the product in any of the locations listed
below. Doing so may result in failure, malfunction,
falling, fire or injury.
Close to facilities where water is used
Where it will be exposed to direct sunlight
Close to the air outlet of an air-conditioner or ventilation
equipment
Close to heat source such as a heater
Where the power supply is unstable
In a dusty environment
In a saline or sulfurous environment
Where temperature or humidity is high
Where there is freezing or condensation
In areas prone to vibration
On an incline or in an unstable area
Take care that cables do not become tangled during
use. Also, be careful not to get your feet caught by
cable.
Otherwise, it may cause a malfunction of the product or
injury of the user due to tripping over the cable.
Non-medical equipment such as battery charger, access
point and infrared register tools cannot be used in
patient’s vicinity.

Safety
KONICA MINOLTA,

Power supply Always connect three-core power cord plug to a
grounded AC power outlet.
To make it easy to disconnect the plug at any time,
avoid putting any obstacles near the outlet. Otherwise,
it may not be possible to disconnect the plug in an
emergency.
Be sure to ground the product to an indoor grounded
connector. Also, be sure to connect all the grounds of
system to common ground.
Do not use any power source other than the one
provided with the product.
Otherwise, fire or electric shock may be caused due to
leakage.
Handling Do not spill liquid or chemicals onto the equipment. In
case the patient is injured, it is not allowed to contact
with blood or other body fluids.
Doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
In such a situation, protect the equipment with a disposable
cover as necessary.
Turn OFF the power and pull out the plug to each
piece of equipment for safety when not used.
CAUTION
Handling Handle the product carefully.
Do not submerge the product in water.
Only working surface meets IPX1
The internal image sensor may be damaged if
something hits against it or it is dropped. If the product
is dropped, the drop sensor inside would record and
the product would not be warranted by KONICA.
Do not place excessive weight on the panel.
Otherwise, the internal image sensor may be damaged and
image may be incorrect.
Patients stand on the product temporarily, and the intended
weight can be 135kg.
Based on the internal TFT character, cannot load the
dynamic forces due to loading from persons

1.2. Notes for Using
When using the product, take the following precautions. Otherwise, problems may
occur and the product may not function correctly.
Before exposure
Be sure to check the product daily and confirm it work properly.
Sudden heating of the room in cold areas will cause condensation on the
product. In this case, wait until the condensation evaporates before performing
an exposure. If it is used when condensation is formed, problems may occur in
the quality of captured images. When an air-conditioner is used, be sure to
raise/lower the temperature gradually to prevent condensation.
The product should be warmed up for 15 minutes before exposure or updating
the gain map and defect map.
Make sure exposure rate is over 900nGy/s @70KV.
Make sure wave form of the energy going to the X ray tube is square not pulse.
Be cautious with circumstance that someone has radio isotope recently injected
into them, it may cause that panel transmit image without x ray.
During exposure
Do not move Power Cable, or it may cause image noise or artifacts, even
incorrect images.
Do not use the product near the equipment generating a strong magnetic field.
Otherwise, it may cause image noise, artifacts or even incorrect images.
After usage
It’s strongly recommended to remove battery from panel if panel is not used
more than 5 days. If battery stores for a long time, it should be charged (30% to
50%) every 3 month or charged (50% to 70%) every 6 month.
