If you have any questions that are not answered by this manual, or if you have any problems with the monitor, talk to your doctor. Your doctor knows your medical history and can give you the help you need. About your monitor The Medtronic CareLink Monitor Model 2490C is designed to automatically gather information from your implanted heart device. This automatic wireless communication between your heart device and the monitor takes place at times scheduled by your doctor or clinic. Sending heart device information to your clinic using wireless technology does not require you to interact with your monitor. Clinics typically schedule this automatic process to occur while you sleep. The gathered heart device information is sent over a telephone line to your clinic using a toll-free number. The monitor must always be plugged into a telephone wall jack and a power outlet for this reason. A12726001 Rev A A12726001_ch.fm 8/10/05 12:08 pm EN Market release 3 x 8 inches (76 mm x 203 mm) Medtronic Confidential PatntR05 The monitor will also send wireless heart device alerts to your clinic automatically. The information sent to your clinic helps your doctor manage your care. Your phone will be busy while the monitor is sending information. For more information, see “Sending information with your monitor” on page 13. The monitor is intended specifically for your use only. It will not work with other implanted devices and should be used only by you as directed by your doctor. Sending information at the request of your doctor or clinic You will sometimes need to send information at times other than those previously scheduled by your doctor or clinic. These times are: • when completing first-time setup, to allow automatic wireless communication between your monitor and your heart device at the request of your doctor or clinic See, “Sending information with your monitor” on page 13. • A12726001 Rev A A12726001_ch.fm 8/10/05 12:08 pm EN Market release 3 x 8 inches (76 mm x 203 mm) Medtronic Confidential PatntR05 Warnings Warning: If you are feeling ill and you think you might need to go to the hospital, seek medical attention immediately. If there is an emergency, call 911. If your doctor has provided other instructions, follow them. Do not use the monitor to send your heart device information to your doctor unless you have already contacted your doctor and your doctor has requested that you use the monitor. Warning: To ensure the safe operation of your implanted device, use the monitor only as described in this manual and at the times prescribed by your doctor. Warning: Do not use the monitor if the monitor does not operate as described in “Sending information with your monitor” on page 13. If you need further assistance, contact your clinic. Precautions • Use only the supplied power cord with this monitor. • Always leave the monitor plugged into a working power outlet and a telephone wall jack.

Follow these recommendations for choosing the right spot: • Place the monitor within ten feet (three meters) of where you sleep, preferably on a night stand or a table. • Place the monitor within reach of a telephone wall jack. A12726001 Rev A A12726001_ch.fm 8/10/05 12:08 pm EN Market release 3 x 8 inches (76 mm x 203 mm) Medtronic Confidential PatntR05 • Place the monitor within reach of a power outlet. • Do not place the monitor anywhere it can get wet. Setting up your monitor Before you use your monitor, you will need to: 1. Check the telephone line settings. 2. Connect the monitor to a telephone wall jack. 3. Plug the monitor into a power outlet. You may connect a telephone to the monitor to make and receive telephone calls, but this is not required for the monitor to work correctly. For more information see, “Connecting the monitor to a telephone wall jack and power outlet” on page 11. Note: The monitor will not work with mobile phones. Checking the telephone line settings Before using the monitor, make sure that the telephone line settings are correct. There are two telephone line settings on the monitor, N-7-8-9 and T-P. See Figure 1.

N means no number needs to be dialed and is the most common setting for home use. Select the setting that is appropriate for the telephone line you will be using. If you are staying in a hotel, you may have to set the switch to 7, 8 or 9 to get an outside line. T-P – This setting is used to select a tone (T) or pulse (P) telephone line. T is the most common setting. Select the setting that is appropriate for the telephone line that you will be using. Telephone line settings may be selected when the monitor is plugged in. 10 A12726001 Rev A Medtronic Confidential PatntR05 A12726001_ch.fm 8/10/05 12:08 pm EN Market release 3 x 8 inches (76 mm x 203 mm) If you have questions about the telephone line, contact your local telephone carrier or hotel front desk.
