Life Support Policy
As a general policy, Para Systems does not recommend the use of any of our
products in life support applications where failure or malfunction of the product
can be reasonably expected to cause failure of the life support device or to
significantly affect its safety or effectiveness. We do not recommend the use of
any of our products in direct patient care. We will not knowingly sell our prod-
ucts for use in such applications unless it receives in writing assurances satis-
factory to us that (a) the risks of injury or damage have been minimized, (b) the
customer assumes all such risks, and (c) our liability is adequately protected
under the circumstances.
Examples of devices considered to be life support devices are neonatal oxygen
analyzers, nerve stimulators (whether used for anesthesia, pain relief, or other
purposes), auto transfusion devices, blood pumps, defibrillators, arrhythmia
detectors and alarms, pacemakers, hemodialysis systems, peritoneal dialysis
systems, neonatal ventilator incubators, ventilators for both adults and infants,
anesthesia ventilators, and infusion pumps as well as any other devices desig-
nated as “critical” by the United States FDA.
After removing your UPS from its carton, it should be inspected for damage that
may have occurred in shipping. Immediately notify the carrier and place of
purchase if any damage is found. Warranty claims for damage caused by the
carrier will not be honored. The packing materials that your UPS was shipped
in are carefully designed to minimize any shipping damage. In the unlikely
case that the UPS needs to be returned to the manufacturer, please use the
original packing material. Since the manufacturer is not responsible for ship-
ping damage incurred when the system is returned, the original packing mate-
rial is inexpensive insurance.
PLEASE SAVE THE PACKING MATERIALS!
