Important information regarding Electro Magnetic Com-
patibility (EMC)
With the increased number of electronic devices such as PC.s
and mobile (cellular) telephones, medical devices in use may
be susceptible to electromagnetic interference from other
devices.
Electromagnetic interference may result in incorrect operation
of the medical device and create a potentially unsafe situation.
Medical devices should also not interfere with other devices.
In order to regulate the requirements for EMC (Electro Mag-
netic Compatibility) with the aim to prevent unsafe product sit-
uations, the EN60601-1-2:2007 standard has been imple-
mented. This standard defines the levels of immunity to
electromagnetic interferences as well as maximum levels of
electromagnetic emissions for medical devices.
This medical device manufactured by OMRON Healthcare
conforms to this EN60601-1-2:2007 standard for both immu-
nity and emissions.
Nevertheless, special precautions need to be observed:
Do not use mobile (cellular) telephones and other devices,
which generate strong electrical or electromagnetic fields,
near the medical device.
This may result in incorrect operation of the unit and create a
potentially unsafe situation.
Recommendation is to keep a minimum distance of 7 m. Verify
correct operation of the device in case the distance is shorter.
Further documentation in accordance with EN60601-1-2:2007
is available at OMRON Healthcare Europe at the address
mentioned in this instruction manual.
