2.5. Electromagnetic interference
Simultaneous connection of a patient to High Fre-
quency Therapy (shortwave or microwave) equipment
and an electrical stimulator must not be done as this
may result in burns at the site of the stimulator elec-
trodes. Therefore, simultaneous connection is not
allowed. For more information see chapter 4 Instal-
lation.
2.6. Product liability
A law on Product Liability has become effective in
many countries. This Product Liability law implies,
amongst other things, that once a period of 10 years
has elapsed after a product has been brought into
circulation, the manufacturer can no longer be held
responsible for possible shortages of the product.
