Cleaning the Air Filters 
Clean the systems air filters to ensure that a clogged filter does not 
cause the system to overheat and reduce system performance and 
reliability. GE recommends the filters be cleaned quarterly. The Logiq 
E9 systems have two air filters which need to be cleaned. The top air 
filter is located on the back of the Logiq E9 below the power cord and 
the bottom air filter is located underneath. 
Cleaning the Trackball Vivid E9 (OP-5) 
The optical trackball of the more recent systems (OP-5) can be 
cleaned from the outside rather than disassembling the OP. 
When cleaning is needed: 
1.) Power OFF the Vivid E9. 
2.) Place your fingers onto the Top Locking Plate. 
3.) Rotate the Top Locking Plate counterclockwise until it can be 
removed from the keyboard. 
4.) Lift off the Top Locking Plate including the Rubber Dust Filtering 
Ring and trackball from the keyboard. 
5.) Wipe off any oil or dust from the trackball using a cleaner or dry 
cloth. 
You cannot restore the 
data between systems 
with different software 
versions. 
Note: If you are not 
logged in with 
administrator privileges, 
the Operator Login 
window is displayed. Log 
on with administrator 
privileges.

6.) Wipe off any oil or dust from the trackball housing, rollers, etc., 
using a cleaner or cotton bud. 
7.) Insert the trackball into the housing. 
8.) Place the Top Locking Plate including the Rubber Dust Filtering 
Ring back on the OP and lock it by rotating it clockwise. 
Test the Trackball: 
Power up the Vivid E9 and check that the trackball now works as 
intended.

Module 6 General Safety Precautions 
This section is not intended to be an all inclusive safety procedure 
guide. It is only brief overview of best practices that applies to all 
health care facilities and types of medical equipment. You should be 
familiar with the policies and procedures of the facility where you 
work AND the safety precautions and procedures described in the 
manufacturer’s documentation for a particular OEM. 
Electrical Safety 
The system is a Class I medical device with Type BF and Type CF 
isolated patient-applied parts. Only CF isolated transducers can be 
used for invasive (internal) exams. 
The following are warnings recommended by the manufacturer: 
 Grounding prevents shock hazards. The chassis is grounded with 
a three wire plug and cable which must be plugged into a 
grounded outlet.  
 Never connect the system using a power strip or extension cord. 
 The ultrasound system should never be connected to the same 
circuit as life-support devices. 
 All devices that have patient contact: transducers, ECG leads and 
pencil probes that are not specifically labeled as defibrillation 
proof must be removed from contact with the patient before 
defibrillation. 
 Non-medical peripherals such as printers should not be used 
within 1.5 meters (5ft) of a patient unless the device is powered 
with an isolated outlet on the back of the system or an isolated 
transformer that meets medical safety standards; IEC 60601-1. 
 Wrist straps should not be worn when working on a system when 
the power turned on. The +5 Vdc supply is a very-high current 
supply. Use caution when troubleshooting.
