Safety Warnings & Cautions
WARNING:
Obey these safety instructions to help prevent injury and/or equipment damage:
•Read and understand all warnings in this manual and on the unit itself prior to
use with a patient.
•The device should be operated by trained persons only.
•Authorized and qualified persons will be those who are approved by Medical
Positioning Inc. to repair or modify the product.
•Do not modify this equipment without authorization of the manufacturer.
•Equipment should only be serviced by authorized personnel.
•The procedures in this manual are only manufacturer’s suggestions. The final
responsibility for patient care with respect to this device remains with the
attending physician.
•Do not use in an oxygen rich environment.
•Do not leave patient unattended while using the product.
•To reduce the risk of electric shock, grounding reliability can only be achieved
when the equipment is connected to an equivalent receptacle marked “hospital
only” or “hospital grade”.
•If damage has occurred to the power cord, immediately remove the cord from
service. Failure to do so could result in serious injury or death.
•The battery should be periodically inspected for damage. If damage has
occurred to the battery, immediately remove the battery from service. Failure
to do so could result in serious injury or death.
•Removal of secured covers may increase the risk of electrical shock. Refer
servicing to qualified and approved personnel.
•The potential for electrical shock exists with electrical equipment. Failure to
follow facility protocols may cause death or serious injury.
•Ensure the patient is properly secured prior to using the equipment.
•To reduce the risk of a potential injury, lock casters before using equipment.
•Once the product and patient have been properly positioned for the procedure,
ensure the casters are locked and the hand controller is placed in a safe position
to prevent unwanted contact and unwanted movement of the support surface.
•To reduce the risk of the product becoming unbalanced, always position the
product in the lowest reasonable height when moving.

Safety Warnings & Cautions
Echo/Vascular User Manual (15381-C) Page 6 of 46 DCR-00172
•Verify the area around the product is free of impediments before operating to
prevent injury or equipment damage.
•Keep hands and feet clear from beneath the patient surface when lowering
surface height or making positioning adjustments in order to avoid possible
injury.
•Keep hands and feet clear of the scissor lift mechanism when operating or
making positioning adjustments in order to avoid possible injury.
•Keep hands clear of the fowler section hinges during operation to avoid possible
injury.
•Sitting at the end of the patient surfaces can result in device instability. Do not
allow a patient to sit at the head end of the patient surface.
•The footboard should be used for steep reverse Trendelenburg positions to
ensure patient stability.
•Protect vinyl upholstery from sharp objects and abrasion to avoid damage.
•Always read manufacturer’s instructions and warnings before using any cleaning
product or disinfectant. Refer to instructions located in this manual for vinyl
cleaning recommendations.
•Substances such as imaging gels and alcohol will not damage the vinyl surface
when immediately removed. Extended exposure for longer than a few minutes
can damage the top coat and will eventually discolor vinyl.
