Connecting the Water Hoses (Tubes) to CritiCool MINI
The Quick Coupling Connectors (QCC) are located at the front of the
CritiCool® device.
To connect the water tubes to CritiCool® MINI:
1. Before connecting the water tubes, press the metal flange on each QCC to
ensure 'open position' of the connector.
2. Lock the connecting tubes by pressing them against the connectors. When
locked, a clicking sound is produced.
3. Verify that the tubes are locked by lightly tugging them towards you.
4. Connect water tubes to wrap and to CritiCool® MINI. Open the clamps on the
wrap, if necessary, and the wrap will automatically fill.
5. Now that the wrap has filled, secure the wrap to the patient. Refer to the
Instructions for Use of the wrap leaflet supplied with each wrap.
NOTE:
If the tubes are not properly connected to the device, or
the clamps to the wrap are closed, water will not flow to
the wrap, and you will notice the disappearance of the
OK symbol in the top left corner.
To disconnect the tubes:
• Press the metal flange and pull out the connecting tubes.
NOTE:
Water may drip from the inlet tubes of the wraps. Be sure
that no electrical device or outlet is located under the
CritiCool® MINI’s water inlet or wrap tubes.
