Precautionary Measures

7 Precautionary Measures
The CardioMessenger is a medical product and
therefore complies with the strict requirements
for the development, manufacturing, and testing
of medical devices.
Statutory regulations for electrical devices in
hospitals require that the CardioMessenger and
its accessories not be used in areas defined as
patient environment (e.g., in the operating room).
Please observe the following safety-relevant
notes:
• Do not place the CardioMessenger next to a
television set, microwave oven, or a similar
source of electromagnetic interference.
You may hear noises typical of cellular phones
if you place the CardioMessenger too close to
a radio alarm or a television set, for example.
• Protect the CardioMessenger from direct
contact with water. For example, wear it
under your coat or keep it in a bag when it
rains.
• Do not carry the CardioMessenger inside the
breast pocket of your shirt or jacket as the
distance from here to the implanted device
could be less than 15 cm (6 inches).
• Do not bring the CardioMessenger into the
vicinity of fire.
