• This equipment complies with IEC 60601-1-2 for electromagnetic compatibility for medical electrical equipment and/or systems. This
standard is designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a typical medical installation. However, because of the
proliferation of radio-frequency transmitting equipment and other sources of electrical noise in healthcare and other environments, it is possible
that high levels of such interference due to close proximity or strength of a source might disrupt the performance of this device. Medical electri-
cal equipment needs special precautions regarding EMC, and all equipment must be installed and put into service according to the

• This device must be able to measure the pulse properly to obtain an accurate SpO2measurement. Verify that nothing is hindering the pulse
measurement before relying on the SpO2measurement.
• Operation of this device below the minimum amplitude of 0.3% modulation may cause inaccurate results.
• Discontinue use of adhesive tape strips if the patient exhibits an allergic reaction to the adhesive material.
• Avoid excessive pressure to the sensor application site as this may cause damage to the skin beneath the sensor.
• When a system fault occurs, the patient will no longer be monitored.
• To comply with relevant product safety standards, ensure that all alarm volumes are set appropriately and are audible in all situations.
Do not cover or otherwise hinder any speaker openings.
• The device turns off after approximately 10 minutes when at low battery capacity.
• Before changing the batteries, make sure the device is off and the sensor is not attached to a digit.

Warnings – only for the Model 2500A PalmSAT Pulse Oximeter with Alarms
• Verify all alarm settings and limits during system startup to ensure that they are set as intended.
• A hazard can exist if different presets are used on multiple 2500A monitors in one care area.
• Because operating environments vary, use caution to ensure that all audible alarms and indicators can be heard. Users must determine the
acceptable audible distance of all alarms.
• Donotplacethisdeviceinanenvironmentwhereitsspeakeropeningmaybecomeblocked;alarmsmaybecomemufedorinaudible.
• Turning off the alarm volume creates a situation that is not compliant with relevant safety standards. The alarm silence indicator is lit solid
when the alarm volume is turned off or set below 45 dBA.
Cautions
• Before use, carefully read the package insert provided with the sensors.
• This device is not an apnea monitor.
• Verifythatallvisibleindicatorsilluminateandthatanaudibleindicatorsoundsduringthestartup(initialization)sequence.Ifanyindicatoris
not lit or the audible indicator does not sound, do not use the device. Contact Nonin Technical Service for assistance.
• Review all limits to ensure they are appropriate for the patient.
• Thepresenceofadebrillatormayinterferewiththeperformanceofthisdevice.
• This device may not work on all patients. If you are unable to achieve stable readings, discontinue use.
• This device has motion tolerant software that minimizes the likelihood of motion artifact being misinterpreted as good pulse quality. In some
circumstances, however, the device may still interpret motion as good pulse quality. Minimize patient motion as much as possible.
• EarClipandReectancesensorsarenotrecommendedforpediatricorneonataluse.Theaccuracyofthesesensorshasnotbeenestablished
for pediatric or neonatal use.
