IMPORTANT – Indicates a situation that does not present any hazard but is very important in maintaining a well functioning workstation.

ATTENTION – Consult manual to avoid a potentially

hazardous situation which may result in minor or moderate injury.

ELECTRICAL – Indicates an impending electrical hazard which, if not avoided, may result in personal injury, fi re and/or death.

• The supplied power cord is rated for medical use. Connecting the cord to an outlet that is not medical grade (indicated with a green dot) will not ensure grounding protection.

• Where the integrity of the external PROTECTIVE EARTH GROUND CONDUCTOR arrangement is in doubt, the equipment shall be operated from its internal electrical power source (battery).

• Power cord, USB extension, and workstation are for INDOOR use only. DO NOT

OPERATE OUTDOORS.

• Keep power cord away from water. DO NOT PLUG CORD INTO OUTLET IF WET.

• DO NOT OPERATE PRODUCT IF WET. If the WORKSTATION becomes wet, unplug it immediately, wipe off any excess liquid, and allow it to dry before using again.

• Inspect power cord before integration. DO NOT USE POWER CORD IF DAMAGED.

• Fully insert power cord plug into outlet. DO NOT unplug by pulling on cord. DO NOT remove, bend or modify any metal prongs or pins of power cord.

• DO NOT use excessive force to make mechanical or electrical connections.

• DO NOT obstruct the cooling vents.

• DO NOT use an electrical extension cord with your workstation.

• DO NOT use a fl ammable cleaner on the station as it can result in fi re or explosion.

• DO NOT overload the cart. Weight of technology components and monitor not to exceed 30 pounds (13.6 kg). Weight of monitor not to exceed 15 lbs. (6.8 kg).

• DO NOT operate the cart on an incline exceeding 10 degrees.

• DO NOT use the cart to power equipment that is not part of the confi gured cart system.

• DO NOT connect equipment that is not mounted on the cart into the power system outlets. The power system is designed for power cart mounted equipment only.

• Equipment not suitable for use in the presence of a FLAMMABLE ANESTHETIC

FIXTURE WITH AIR, or WITH METERED OXYGEN OR NITROUS OXIDE.

Do not adjust lift mechanism until cart has been outfi tted with technology.

Failure to do so may cause the shuttle and work surface to rise rapidly when actuator is released potentially causing personal injury or damage to the cart.

To avoid potential electrical shock, DO NOT simultaneously touch any cart

system components and the patient or any apparatus not connected to the cart system. Electric current may try to fl ow through you between the M38 system and the other point of contact as it seeks the easiest path to ground.

Operation

THE MUTE BUTTON

ADJUST THE CONTRAST OF THE LCD

The Mute Button is used to silence the power system audible alarm.

To mute the audible alarm, press and hold down the mute button

until the alarm is silenced.

Note:

When the battery is at 10%

(1/8) charge or less, the audible alarm will sound after again a minute when the mute button is used until the power system is turned off or the cart is plugged in to charge the battery. Failure to plug-in or turn off the power system will damage the battery.

Note:

Do not allow the battery charge to drop below 20% (1/4), the battery may lose the ability to recharge.

The LCD level of contrast is adjusted as follows:

To increase the contrast:

1. Press and hold down the

SETUP key.

2. Repeatedly press the 2 key

(the up arrow) until the display shows the desired level of contrast.

To decrease the contrast:

1. Press and hold down the

SETUP key.

2. Repeatedly press the 8 key

(the down arrow) until the display shows the desired level of contrast.

29

Operation

BATTERY CHARGE INDICATORS (POWERED CARTS)

M38 cart power expansions are equipped with a battery gauge that displays the level of battery charge. Powered carts without powered drawer expansions are equipped with LED battery gauges. The RUI for powered carts equipped with powered drawer expansions has an LCD battery gauge.

The RUI also indicates power system status:

• Normal greater than 50% to 100%,

The cart may be unplugged and used on battery power.

• Charge Mode less than 50% to 20%

The cart should be plugged in to charge, but may be used on battery power alone. The audible alarm will sound but may be muted.

• Recovery less than 20% The cart must be plugged in. The cart may shutdown for deep discharge recovery cycle and should remain plugged in for 6-8 hours.

Powered components will not be available during this period. The audible alarm will continue to sound. When battery level drops below 10% the alarm cannot be muted unless the cart is plugged in.

Caution:

Never allow battery charge level to drop bellow 20% (1/4), Failure to keep the battery charge greater than 20% may damage the battery and render it unable to recharge.
