WARNING
1 Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system for patient monitoring.
Adjustment of alarm volume to a low level or off during patient monitoring may result
in patient danger. Remember that the most reliable method of patient monitoring
combines close personal surveillance with correct operation of monitoring
equipment.
2 Ensure the volume is properly set up. When the sound pressure of audible alarm is
below or equivalent to the ambient noise, it may be difficult for the operator to
distinguish the audio alarm.
