Summary of Safety Precautions
WARNING (CONTINUED)
• To reduce the risk of injury, do not directly handle or make contact with the
SMRT Pak terminals while rinsing.
• Avoid excessive water exposure to the SMRT Pak terminals.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the SMRT Pak in liquid.
• Do not use solvents, lubricants, or other chemicals to clean the SMRT Pak
unless otherwise directed.
• Refer to the disinfectant's Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) to verify the
pH range. Disinfectants with pH levels higher than 10.5 may cause the SMRT
Pak housing material to crack.
• Use only Stryker-approved parts. Other parts may result in increased
electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity of the
system. Do not modify any parts. Failure to comply may result in injury.
• Always maintain the SMRT Charger in an area that is free of moisture and
dust, and especially metallic or conductive materials including, but not
limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, grinding dust, or salt spray.
• Do not use this equipment in the presence of a mixture consisting of
flammable anesthetic and air or oxygen or nitrous oxide.
• Take special precautions regarding electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
when using medical electrical equipment like the SMRT Charger. Install and
place the SMRT Charger into service according to the EMC information in
this manual. Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect
the function of the SMRT Charger.
• Do not operate the SMRT Charger using a voltage inconsistent with the
rating on the back of the unit.
• Always recharge SMRT Paks with SMRT Chargers. Failure to comply may
result in injury.
• Always place and maintain the power cord such that it will not be damaged
or cause a hazard.
• Never use a SMRT Charger that has a damaged housing, damaged power
supply, or damaged power cord. Failure to comply may result in electric shock
or fire. Before attempting any maintenance or cleaning, ALWAYS disconnect
the power cord from the SMRT Charger to reduce the risk of electric shock.
Never clean the SMRT Charger when it is connected to an electrical power
source.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, never attempt to open the SMRT
Charger or SMRT Pak for any reason.
• Avoid direct contact with a wet SMRT Pak or SMRT Charger. Contact may
cause injury to the patient or operator.
