Positioning the Unit

WARNINGS:
Never position the unit where it could fall and injure a patient or caregiver.
Never place the light box inside of an incubator, warmer or bassinet with the
patient. This could cause possible injury to the patient.
Never position the unit in the path of, or next to, sources of heat. For example,
near a fireplace or in the path of radiant heaters.
To avoid patient injury, do not mount the system using a dove tail rail or
service the unit while a patient occupies the bed or is receiving treatment.
WARNING SHOCK HAZARD:
The light box is not waterproof. Never position the unit next sources of liquid or
steam. Do not place the device next to devices that supplement room humidity
e.g. humidifiers.
CAUTIONS:
Never position the unit where it could interfere with the performance of other
equipment.
Use care when moving beds, or roll stands using a Dovetail Rail with a BiliSoft
2.0 attached. Protect the unit from impacting door jambs or any other
obstacles.
Follow these guidelines to prevent damage to the Light Pad coverings and
optical fibers. Failure to do so could decrease light intensity at the light pad:
To avoid damage to the equipment or injury to users and patients, keep
the Light Box and the Light Pad out of the reach of children and pets.
If the fiberoptic cable or light pad is ripped, punctured or otherwise damaged, it
must be replaced.
Do not allow the fiberoptic cable to be crushed, or bent at a sharp
angle. This could damage the cable's outer protective cover and the
optical fibers.
Do not place anything on the fiberoptic cable.
Do not store the Light Box on top of the Light Pad.
Protect the Light Pad from contacting sharp or abrasive surfaces. The
protective coverings and optical fibers may be damaged.
