SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Read, understand, and practice the precautionary and operating instructions. Know the
limitations associated with the Heating Unit NGL-LJE-1. Observe the cautionary and operational
decals installed on the unit.
DO NOT operate this unit in an environment where other devices are being used that
intentionally radiates electromagnetic energy in an unshielded manner. Portable and mobile RF
communications equipment can affect Medical Electrical Equipment.
The Heating Unit generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
other devices in the vicinity. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. Harmful interference to other devices can be determined by turning
the Heating Unit on and off. Try to collect the interference using one or more of following:
reorient or relocate the receiving device, increase the separation between the equipment,
connect the equipment to an outlet on a different circuit from that which the other device(s)
are connected and consult us for help.
Do not use accessories other than those supplied with the Heating Unit or recommended by us.
The safety of other products has not been established, and their use could result in injury to the
patient.

adjustment will alter the temperature several degrees. The recommended operating temperature
is 71℃-74℃. The temperature of the water should be checked with a thermometer after every
adjustment, before using the hot pack. Always allow sufficient time for the water temperature to
stabilize
The Heating Unit should not be installed above a surface that is susceptible to casual water
damage.
Always keep the water level over the top of the hot packs to avoid burning or scorching of the
packs.
Never allow the hot packs to dry after use.
Check the water level daily as it has a natural loss due to evaporating.
Clean the tank periodically as described in the maintenance portion of this manual.
