1.3.3 Specific requirements on the products/components of a combination
.IMPORTANT!
Persons combining products to form a system are responsible for not impairing the system’s compliance with
the performance and safety requirements, and that the technical data and the intended use are adequately
fulfilled.
Electromagnetic interference or other types of interference occurring between this product and other products
can cause failures or malfunctions.
When selecting the system components ensure that they meet the requirements for the medical environment
they are used in, in particular IEC/ EN 60601--1--1. In case of doubt contact the manufacturer(s) of the system
components.
Do not touch connecting devices for electrical connections between the different components (such as signal
input and output connections for video signals, data exchange, control circuits, etc.) and the patient at the
same time.
