I have an M5, and when I turn on the power it shuts itself off, if I do this 7-10 times it will power up and stay on. Right now I **** letting the the unit run and warm up. **** I doing the right thing? It has been in storage for a few months.

The Mindray M5 may shut off when powered on due to several possible reasons:

1. Battery Issues: If the battery is severely degraded or has reached the end of its lifespan (300 charge/discharge cycles or 3 years), it may not hold a charge properly.
2. Power Supply Problems: If the system is not connected to external power correctly, or if the battery is not charging, it may shut down.
3. System Defect: If there are malfunctions such as excessive heat from the transducer or non-functional control panel keys, this may indicate a system failure.
4. Software Issues: If the system was recently upgraded or has crashed, a restart might be required.

Letting the system warm up is not a recommended solution. Instead, check for power supply issues, battery condition, and system functionality. If the issue persists, shut down the system and contact Mindray Customer Service.

Page 16: Safety Precautions
Safety Precautions 1. Meaning of Signal Words DANGER, WARNING, In this operator’s manual, the signal words CAUTION and NOTE are used regarding safety and other important instructions. The signal words and their meanings are defined as follows. Please understand their meaning before reading this manual.
Page 17 If any water is sprayed on or into the system, electric shock may result. If water is accidentally sprayed on or into the system, contact Mindray Customer Service Department or sales representative. Store and use the transducers carefully. Do not use a transducer that has a damaged, scratched surface, or exposed wiring of any kind.
Page 18 10. Do not subject the transducers to knocks or drops. Use of a defective transducer may cause an electric shock. Do not open the covers and front panel of the system. Short circuit or electric shock may result when the system hardware is exposed and powered 12.
Page 19 If the circuit protector is tripped, it indicates that the system or a peripheral device was improperly shut down and the system is unstable. You cannot repair the system under this circumstance and must call the Mindray Customer Service Department or sales representative.
Page 20 There is no risk of high-temperature burns during routine ultrasound examinations. It is possible for the surface temperature of the transducer to exceed the body temperature of a patient due to environmental temperature and exam type combinations. If a patient complains of any excessive heat from the transducer, immediately stop scanning.
Page 21 If the system is used in a small room, the room temperature may rise. Provide proper ventilation and free air exchange. 10 To dispose of the system or any part, contact Mindray Customer Service Department or sales representative. Mindray is not responsible for any system content or accessories that have been discarded improperly.
Page 22 Mindray will not be liable for damage caused by other solutions. If you have any questions, please contact Mindray Customer Service Department or sales representative. 9. Do not use pre-lubricated condoms as a sheath. Lubricant may not be compatible with the transducer material and damage may result.
Page 23 10. Transducer damage may be caused by inappropriate gel, detergent or cleanser: Do not soak or saturate transducers with solutions containing alcohol, bleach, ammonium chloride compounds, acetone or formaldehyde. Avoid contact with solutions or coupling gels containing mineral oil or lanolin. NOTE: 1.
Page 24 When choosing a transducer sheath, it is recommended that you directly contact CIVCO for obtaining transducer cover, pricing information, samples and local distribution information.

Page 253: Acoustic Output
Acoustic Output This section of the operator’s manual applies to the overall system including the main unit, transducers, accessories and peripherals. This section contains important safety information for operators of the device, pertaining to acoustic output and how to control patient exposure through use of the ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable) principle.
Page 254: Alara Principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable)
Acoustic Output 23.3 ALARA Principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) It is required to practice ALARA when using ultrasound energy. Practicing ALARA ensures that the total energy level is controlled below a low enough level at which bioeffects are not generated while diagnostic information is being accumulated. The total energy is controlled by output intensity and total radiation time.
Page 255: Mi/Ti Display
Acoustic Output = 1 (MPa / MHz ) For the frequency 1 MHz and the peak-rarefactional acoustic pressure 1 MPa, MI becomes 1. It is possible to think MI to be one threshold of the cavitations generation. Especially, it is important to keep MI value to be low when both gases and the soft tissues exist together, for such as lung exposure in cardiac scanning and bowel gas in abdominal scanning.

Page 257: Acoustic Output
Acoustic Output 23.7 Acoustic Output 23.7.1 Derated Ultrasonic Output Parameters In order to determine the relevant Ultrasonic Output Parameters, a method is used which allows for the comparison of ultrasound systems which operate at different frequencies and are focused at different depths. This approach, called "derating" or "attenuating", adjusts the acoustic output as measured in a water tank to account for the effect of ultrasound propagation through tissue.
Page 258: Measurement Uncertainty
Acoustic Output transducer and the focal point. Again, all solid tissues within the body have higher attenuation than the proscribed 0.3 dB/cm/MHz value, and therefore, the actual peak-rarefactional pressure will be lower. Further, the actual peak-rarefactional pressure will change depending upon the region of the body being scanned. For these reasons, the TI and MI displays should only be used to assist the operator in implementing ALARA at the time of the patient examination.
