1 Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a Siemens audiometer. The Siemens

SD 270 is a diagnostic audiometer that will give many years of

reliable service if treated with care.

1.1 Intended applications

The Siemens SD 270 diagnostic audiometer is designed for use by

audiologists, general practitioners, hearing aid dispensers and child

health professionals. Capable of undertaking both air and bone

conduction tests with or without masking, the audiometer also has

many additional features such as the facility to support speech au-

diometry from live or recorded sources, the option to select

free-field equivalent output from the headphones in speech mode

and a range of clinical audiometry tests.

1.2 Unpacking

Open the shipping carton and carefully remove all the equipment.

Check against the delivery note that all the accessories ordered

have been included with your audiometer. If anything is missing,

please contact your local Service department – see Appendix 5.

If you have purchased from a distributor you should contact them

directly.

Please retain the shipping carton and packing materials as the

audiometer will need calibrating on an annual basis and should

be returned for service in its original shipping carton.

1.3 Standard contents

1.5 Frequently used functions

How to switch on/off or set the language or control the level?

Please refer to section 3 of this instruction.

1.6 Known contradictions

There are no contradictions known for the use and application of

the SD 270 Audiometer.

2 Important Safety Instructions

Safety Note!

Any modification of the device itself or its accessories is not

allowed and may lead to inaccepteable risk of harm or inju-

ries.

Safety Note!

The SD 270 diagnostic audiometer must be used only by

practitioners qualified to perform audiometric tests. It is

intended for use as a screening and diagnostic tool.

2.1 Precautions

READ THIS OPERATING MANUAL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO USE

THE INSTRUMENT.

To comply with the standards IEC 60601-1 for safety and

IEC 60601-1-2 for EMC the audiometer is designed to be used

only with the medically-approved mains adapter supplied, which

is specified as part of the equipment. Do not use any other type

of mains adapter with this instrument. Refer to Section 12 for

the stock number of the adapter.

The audiometer is for indoor use only and should be used only as

described in this manual.

The transducers supplied with the audiometer are specifically

calibrated with it; if these transducers are changed calibration

will be required.

Do not immerse the unit in any fluids. See Section 8 for the proper

cleaning procedure for the instrument and its accessories and the

function of single-use parts.

Do not use the instrument in an oxygen-rich environment or in the

presence of a flammable anaesthetic mixture or other flammable

agents.

Do not drop or otherwise impact this instrument. If the instrument

is dropped or damaged, return it to the manufacturer for repair

and/or calibration. Do not use the instrument if any damage is

suspected.

The instrument must be stored and used within the specified

temperature, pressure and humidity ranges (see Sections 7 and 9).

Do not attempt to open or service the instrument. Return the

instrument to the manufacturer or distributor for all repair and

servicing requirements. Opening the instrument will void the

warranty.

2.2 Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) considerations

Medical electrical equipment needs special precautions regarding

EMC and needs to be installed and put into service according to

the EMC information provided in Appendix 3. This provides

guidance on the electromagnetic environment in which to

operate the instrument.

Portable and mobile radio-frequency (RF) communications

equipment can affect medical electrical equipment. The

instrument should not be used adjacent to or stacked with

other equipment; if this is unavoidable the instrument should

be observed to verify normal operation.

2.3 Mains supply operation

The audiometer is designed for continuous operation and is

as part of the equipment. If a replacement is required, please

contact your local Service department (see Annexx 5).

All other connections must be made before connecting the output

lead from the adapter into the POWER input socket on the back of

the audiometer. Switch on the mains supply - the indicator on the

adapter and the POWER indicator on the audiometer will both

illuminate green, showing that the instrument is ready for use.

The output from mains adapter is fitted with electronic circuit

protection. In case of overload the adapter will shut down and the

indicator will be extinguished. When the fault is cleared the adapter

will operate as normal.

The input is to the mains adapter is protected with a non-replacea-

ble fuse. If this fails the adapter will not operate.

The mains adapter is the mains disconnect device and therefore

the audiometer should be positioned such that easy access to the

mains adapter is possible.

Safety Note!

DO NOT USE ANY OTHER MAINS ADAPTER WITH THIS IN-

STRUMENT.

To comply with the standards IEC 60601-1 for safety and

IEC 60601-1-2 for EMC the audiometer is designed to be used

only with the medical approved mains adapter supplied with

the product. If a replacement is required, please contact your

local Service department (see Annexx 5).
