General warnings and cautions

WARNINGS
• Lithium ion batteries have built-in safety protection circuits, but can still be
dangerous if they are not used correctly. Damaged batteries can become
inoperative or catch fire.
• Due to risk of fire or electric shock:
- do not place the RPS II near open fire or heaters.
- do not expose the RPS II to direct sunlight or heat (for example behind a
car window).
- do not expose the RPS II to water, rain or high moisture levels.
- do not short-circuit the RPS II.
- do not use a damaged RPS II.
- do not open the RPS II, AC charger or the DC converter.
•
Make sure to revert to AC power when the remaining capacity of RPS II and/or
device internal battery is low.
• Make sure to periodically recharge the battery due to effects of self-
discharging.
• As the battery ages, the available capacity decreases. When the remaining
battery capacity is getting low, do not rely on the RPS II as the primary supply.
• Ensure the internal battery of any connected device is kept charged up to
provide backup power in the event of loss of power from RPS II.
• Only use a supplied ResMed 90W AC power supply unit or DC converter for
charging the RPS II.
• Explosion hazard—do not use in the vicinity of flammable anaesthetics.
• The RPS II system is not intended for use by persons (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the RPS II system by a person responsible for their safety.
•
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the RPS II
system.
• Care should be taken to keep the power supply unit adapter dry. The RPS II
system, while connected to a device and discharging, is rated to IP21 (Drip
proof) according to IEC60529. When charging, the RPS II system is rated to
IP20 (No protection) due to the power supply unit adapter which is rated to
IP20. The AC power supply, RPS II battery and DC converter are rated to IP21.
CAUTIONS
•
Avoid hard, physical impact on the battery.
•
Before using for the first time, ensure that the RPS II and its components are
in good condition and operational. If there are any defects, the system should
not be used.
• The RPS II is to be used only in accordance with the intended use stated in
this guide. Damage to equipment or injury can result from modifications to
the equipment or operation.
• Always fully charge the RPS II before use, or before relying as a backup power.
