Electromagnetic interference
Caution: This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for
medical devices to the IEC 60601-1-2 and MDD 93/42/EEC. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a typical
medical installation. However, because of the proliferation of radio-frequency
transmitting equipment and other sources of electrical noise in healthcare
environments (for example, electrosurgical units, cellular phones, mobile two-way
radios, electrical appliances, and high-definition television), it is possible that high
levels of such interference due to close proximity or strength of a source may result
in disruption of performance of this device.
This handheld pulse oximeter is not designed for use in environments in which the
pulse can be obscured by electromagnetic interference. During such interference,
measurements may seem inappropriate or the monitor may not seem to operate
correctly.
