The following tasks must be completed before the procedures for Philips personnel may be started.

WARNING
Only the power cables provided with the system may be used. For reasons of safety, power (mains)
extension cables or adapters shall not be used.

the customer is responsible for the following:
– Providing and installing all hardware which is required to install the mounting hardware
supplied by Philips as detailed in the installation notes.
– Making sure that all ceilings, walls, and mounting rails that supports mounting hardware are
suitable for their proposed load.
WARNING
It is the customer's responsibility to have the attachment of the mounting hardware to the ceiling, wall,
or mounting rail, and the construction of the ceiling, wall, or mounting rail evaluated for structural
integrity and compliance with all local, state, and any other required codes by a registered, professional,
structural and/or mechanical engineer.
Although considerable effort has been made to ensure the safety of the ceiling mount installation and

Medical Systems. Accordingly, Philips Medical Systems will not be responsible for the failure of any
such installation.
