General Safety Information
1.1
Instructions for safe use The following chapter contains all safety information that has to be followed when working with the Chattanooga Intelect F-SW.
WARNING! Incorrect handling of the device. Possibility of injuries to the patient and the operating personnel! • Read this chapter carefully before you start using the Chattanooga Intelect F-SW. • Read the separate operating manuals for all devices associated with the Chattanooga Intelect F-SW.
1.1.1
Intended use and operational safety To use this device in accordance with its intended use, the user must possess the necessary technical proficiency, and knowledge of the operating manual. The Chattanooga Intelect F-SW is intended exclusively for use by healthcare professionals who have been trained to use the device (see also chapter 2.2 Preconditions for operation). The device is only allowed to be used for the applications described in Chapter 2.1.1 Indications.
7
Only perform treatments approved by the manufacturer! Furthermore, the device is only allowed to be operated by trained personnel who comply with the Preconditions for operation in Chapter 2.2. All status and error messages signaled during treatment must always be attended to without delay.
Checks and inspections prior to treatment Before using the device, the user must make sure it is functioning safely and that it is in proper condition. • It is essential to perform the functional checks after switching on the Chattanooga Intelect F-SW before starting treatment. Read about this in Chapter 5.15 Functional checks. • Have the maintenance procedures recommended by the manufacturer carried out by authorised personnel (see also Chapter 6.6 Maintenance and safety checks). No treatment ist permitted if a display on the control device or a touch screen fails.
13 610 02 1018
General Safety Information
While applying focused shockwaves at maximum adjustment, do not use more than 6.000 subsequent shocks and stick to a consecutive break of 5 minutes.
Protection against electrical hazard Sources of voltage can give rise to currents as a result of body resistance which not only flow through the patient but can also impair or even endanger the physician and the nursing staff. • Therefore, always connect the potential equalisation connector of the Chattanooga Intelect F-SW in accordance with national guidelines. • Devices which are not medical products in accordance with EN 60601 must be set up outside the vicinity of the patient. • Do not touch electrical connectors while you are touching the patient. • Disconnect the connected handpieces from the device before carrying out cleaning and maintenance work. Do not reconnect them until they have been completely reassembled! • Do not try to open the instrument! Risk of electric shocks! Protection against high voltage Very high voltages are generated when operating the device. High-voltage components are identified as follows:

8
DANGER! Contact with high-voltage parts
General Safety Information
Severe or fatal injury! • Only operate the device if the housing is intact and closed. • Work in the area of high voltage is only allowed to be performed by personnel suitably authorised by the manufacturer. Protection against noise The noise level during administration of shock waves is within the safe area. Nevertheless, we recommend wearing suitable ear protection during treatment in order to minimise exposure to noise. Protection against explosion Do not use the Chattanooga Intelect F-SW in potentially explosive environments, i.e. in the presence of a flammable anaesthetic mixture with air or with oxygen or nitrous oxide. The optional foot switch must not be used in potentially explosive atmospheres according to classification AP as per IEC 60601.
13 610 02 1018
1.1.2
Safety during treatment of the patient General note: Organs with gas inclusions, in particular parts of the lung, are NOT allowed to be exposed to shock waves. As it passes through tissue, the shock wave’s energy is slightly reduced; this reduction is significantly weakened by the bone structure. Shock waves can give rise to undesirable heart reactions. The patient must be continuously observed during the treatment. • While applying focused shockwaves at maximum adjustment, do not use more than 6.000 subsequent shocks and stick to a consecutive break of 5 minutes. • Only perform treatments approved by the manufacturer! The user is responsible for correctly positioning the handpieces and correctly selecting the treatment zone. Air bubbles reduce the effectiveness of shock waves. Therefore, air bubbles must always be removed from the shock wave path.
1.2
Warning against damage to equipment and the device Any damage to the device resulting from incorrect operation is not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
9
Electromagnetic compatibility This device complies with the requirements of the applicable standard on electromagnetic compatibility. Nevertheless, portable and mobile HF communications equipment (e.g. mobile phones) can interfere with medical electrical equipment.
The use of accessories or cables that are not authorised by the manufacturer can result in increased interference emissions or reduced resistance to interference emissions by the device. The Chattanooga Intelect F-SW is not allowed to be positioned immediately next to or jointly with other devices. If the operation near or jointly with other devices is required, the Chattanooga Intelect F-SW must be tested in that particular environment to ensure operation according to technical specification. If the Chattanooga Intelect F-SW is connected to a 240 V mains supply with a mains frequency of 60 Hz, the mains supply must be balanced The system must only be connected to properly earthed and correctly installed shockproof sockets!
13 610 02 1018
General Safety Information
This device is subjected to special precautions regarding EMC and needs to be installed according the EMC guidelines in chapter 9.4 Conformity with standards.
Set-up and operation • Check that the installation surfaces have sufficient carrying capacity to avoid equipment damage! There are ventilation slits on the left side of the device which must not be covered by other objects. • Check that the system is in perfect working order before each use. Read about this in Chapter 5.15 Functional checks. • Never cover the device when in use! • Make absolutely sure that no liquid can seep into the system housing or handpiece. Storage and transport Incorrect storage and transport can result in damage to the device and device failure. • Make sure that no cables are crushed or sheared. Disposal • Comply with national disposal regulations when disposing of the Chattanooga Intelect F-SW or individual components. • Comply with the relevant information in the operating manuals for the additional devices.
