4.THERE ARE NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS IN THIS DEVICE.

5.PORTABLE AND MOBILE RADIO-FREQUENCY (RF) COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT CAN AFFECT THE VITALPOINT HOME MONITOR. IF THE VITALPOINT HOME MONITOR DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE

WORKING NORMALLY, TRY TO RELOCATE OR REORIENT THE

VITALPOINT HOME MONITOR.

6.USE OF ACCESSORIES NOT APPROVED FOR USE WITH THE VITALPOINT

HOME MONITOR MAY RESULT IN INCREASED EMISSIONS OR DECREASED IMMUNITY OF THE VITALPOINT HOME MONITOR. REFER TO THE APPROVED ACCESSORIES LIST FOR THE VITALPOINT HOME MONITOR.

7.THE VITALPOINT HOME MONITOR SHOULD NOT BE USED ADJACENT

•DO NOT APPLY THE NON-INVASIVE BLOOD PRESSURE CUFF ON

THE SAME LIMB AS THE SpO2 SENSOR. DURING BLOOD PRESSURE

MEASUREMENTS, THE PERFUSION IS TEMPORARILY REDUCED,
