CAUTION: Do not use sanitising products containing alcohol as this may damage the
sensors.
3.
Only use accessories approved by MGC Diagnostics Corporation.
CAUTION: Use of accessories not approved by the manufacturer will invalidate the
warranty
and may compromise the safety of the device.
4.
It is best practice to not let the battery run flat, if the FeNObreath™ indicates the battery
level is on the last bar on the display, we recommend charging the device. If the
FeNObreath™ battery symbol is flashing on the display, the device would require charging
immediately.
5.
If the FeNObreath™ battery becomes fully discharged, the device may need calibration.
Please contact MGC Diagnostics Corporation or its local distributor for advice.
Servicing
1.
The FeNObreath™ will allow a 2-step quality check to be performed as frequently as your
guidelines require between annual services; this is to ensure the FeNObreath™ is within
specification. The 2-step quality check will be carried out using filtered ambient air and
100ppb Nitric Oxide. Alternatively the unit can be sent back to MGC Diagnostics Corporation
or local service provider.
2.
The NO scrubber should be replaced annually and is included in the CaliBag® kit and NO
sensor exchange kit.
3.
The FeNObreath™ is warranted for 5 years, providing calibrations are performed annually
and the device is intended to be replaced or refurbished at the end of 5 years. This is to
include replacing the NO sensor, breath drying cartridge and pump. MGC Diagnostics
Corporation or a local distributor can arrange for this service.
Do not attempt to open the FeNObreath™ device to gain access to hidden interior components. The
back cover is provided to allow safe access to specified removable components, as directed in this
manual.
Cleaning
MGC Diagnostics Corporation recommends wiping the instrument’s external surfaces
with a product specifically developed for this purpose. An EPA registered alcohol free
disinfectant should be used, such as Sani-Cloth AF3 Germicidal Disposable Wipe.
Cleaning should be performed following the instructions for use specified by the
manufacturer of the EPA registered disinfectant. The device or consumables cannot be
sterilized. It is recommended that wipes are used once and for one surface only. The
FeNObreath™ device should be cleaned for initial use and after each patient use.
CAUTION: Do not use any substances containing alcohol on or near the FeNObreath™.
WARNING:
Under no circumstances should the instrument be immersed or splashed with liquid.
