Caution: The Nox C1 access point complies with the international standard IEC
60601-1-2 for electromagnetic compatibility for medical electrical equipment
and/or systems. That 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 interference due to close proximity or strength of source might disrupt the
performance of the device, affecting recorded signals and therefore data analysis
and resulting in possible incorrect treatment. Medical electrical equipment needs
special precautions regarding Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC), and needs to
be installed and put into service according to the EMC information provided in the
“EMC Information” section of this manual.
Warning: Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) can be picked up by the analog
channels of the Nox C1 access point, causing disturbed or altered signals to appear
in the Noxturnal software. This may affect data analysis and result in possible
incorrect treatment.
Warning: The use of accessories and cables other than those listed in this manual
may result in increased emissions and/or decreased immunity of the Nox Sleep
System and cause injuries to the operator/patient.
Warning: The Nox C1 access points should not be used adjacent to or stacked with
other equipment. If adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the device(s) should be
observed to verify normal operation in the configuration in which it/they will be
used and prevent abnormal operation which might cause injuries to the
operator/patient.
Warning: The Nox Sleep System may be interfered with by other equipment, even
if that equipment complies with emission requirements of the CISPR (Special
International Committee on Radio Interference) causing possible patient harm.
Warning: The Nox C1 Access Point is not designed to give a specified degree of
protection against harmful ingress of liquids. Do not autoclave or immerse the
device in any kind of liquids. Ingress of liquids may result in electric shock.
Warning: In the United States of America, only use United States Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) registered products for cleaning of the Nox C1 access
point to prevent harm to the operator/patient.
Warning: Do not use damaged equipment, sensors or accessories. This may result
in bad performance of the Nox Sleep System or patient/operator injury.
Warning: There are no user serviceable parts inside the Nox C1 Access Point. The
device should be serviced by authorized parties only. Service performed by non-
authorized parties may affect data analysis and result in possible incorrect
treatment. The warranty is void if the Nox C1 access point is opened.
Warning: No modification of the Nox C1 access point is allowed. Un-authorized
modifications may affect data analysis and result in possible incorrect treatment.
Warning: External equipment and all auxiliary devices intended for connection to
signal input, signal output or other connectors shall comply with the relevant
product safety standards, e.g. IEC 60950-1 for IT equipment and the IEC 60601
series for medical electrical equipment, to prevent electric shocks. In addition, all
such combinations –systems –shall comply with the safety requirements stated in
