• Do not turn on the CardioMessenger if it has
recently been in a cold environment. Let it
warm up to room temperature for 30 minutes,
since the resulting condensed water may
harm the electronic circuitry.
• Do not turn on the CardioMessenger if it has
recently been in a hot environment. Let it cool
down to room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Do not operate the CardioMessenger in areas
where cellular phones are prohibited for
safety reasons (for example, in certain areas
of the hospital or on airplanes).
• Make sure that the distance to the implanted
device is less than 2 m (6 ft), so that regular
data transmission from the device to the
CardioMessenger is ensured.

supply brick from:
• Water and high humidity
• Temperatures above 40°C (104°F) (e.g., direct
