3. Safety
This chapter describes safety issues regarding the use and maintenance of the
System, with special emphasis on electrical safety.
Introduction
The System is designed for a safe and reliable treatment when used in accordance to
proper operating and maintenance procedures as outlined in this operating manual.
Only trained and qualified personnel, by an authorized trainer, can use the system
and perform the treatments. The operator and all other personnel operating or
maintaining the System should be familiar with all of the safety information provided
in this manual.
The primary objective should always be in maximizing the safety of both the client
and the treatment operator.
The Operator

All operators MUST be familiar with the system controls and know how
to shut down the system in case of trouble.

Always be aware of the possible dangers of using the System and take
proper precautions as described in this manual.

Do not touch the inner parts of the System. The System services and
repairs must be performed by qualified personnel only. Failure to do so
will void all service agreements.

RF used in this (MP)² technology can cause injury if used improperly.

High voltage is present inside the System, do not attempt to open the
casing.

Disconnect the System from the power supply before servicing (pull out
the plug).

Do not use the System unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.

Do not tamper with the controls or attempt to open up the System.


Do not abuse, sit or lean on the system.

Venus Freeze (MP)² System should be kept out of the reach of Children.

Do not allow the Octipolar/Octipolar 2.0 or Diamondpolar Applicators to
come in contact with metal elements - this could damage the (MP)2
electrodes.

A client history should be completed prior to treatment to ensure no
complications could arise. It is important to verify client does not full
under the exclusion criteria.

The PATIENT should not come into contact with metal parts which are
earthed or which have an appreciable capacitance to earth (for example
operating table supports, etc). The use of antistatic sheeting is
recommended for this purpose.

The cables to the Applicators should be positioned in such a way that
contact with the PATIENT or other leads is avoided.

The product should not be in contact with other equipment.

Failure of the System could result in an unintended increase of output
power.

Interference produced by the operation of HF SURGICAL
EQUIPEMENT may adversely influence the operation of other electronic
EQUIPEMENT.

For PATIENT with cardiac pacemakers or other active implants, a
possible hazard exists because interference with the action of the
pacemakers may occur, or the pacemaker may be damaged. In case of
doubt, approved qualification advice should be obtained.

This equipment/system may cause radio interference or may disrupt the
operation of nearby equipment. It may be necessary to take mitigation
measures. Such as reorienting or relocating.

Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect the
System.

The client should then be fully informed of the treatment protocol,
expected results and should sign informed consent form prior to
beginning treatments.

Only authorized person is allowed to stand near the system during the
treatment.

Stop the treatment in case of unexpected changes in client’s condition.

Do not drop the Applicators. In case the Applicators were dropped, turn
off the system immediately. Don’t use the broken Applicator and call to
local service support.

Electrical and Mechanical Safety

Keep all covers and panels of the System closed. Removing the
covers/panels will not only create a safety hazard but will also affect
your service agreement.

Keep your hands away from the Applicators during the System start-up.

Perform maintenance procedures only when the System is shut down
and power source has been disconnected.

Do not place the System at working position at the floor with slope of
more than 5O.

Do not use the Applicator if its cable is loose or broken.

When moving the System, do so carefully and slowly to ensure no
damage will be made to the System or the operator.

The System is grounded through the grounding conductor in the power
cable. This protective grounding is essential for safe operation.

No modification of this system is allowed.
Fire Hazards

Do not use the System in the presence of explosive or flammable
materials.

Do not use flammable substances when preparing the skin for treatment.

If germicide swipes is used for cleaning and disinfecting the system, it
must be allowed to fully dry before the System can be used again.
