Warning
:
Do not use in the presence of flammable anesthetics or other flammable gasses.
Use of the CAPNOSTAT5 sensor in such environment may present an explosion
hazard.
Electrical Shock Hazard: Always disconnect the CAPNOSTAT5 sensor before
cleaning. Do not use if it appears to have been damaged. Refer servicing to
qualified service personnel.
Do not position the sensor cables or tubing in any manner that may cause
entanglement or strangulation.
Reuse, disassembly, cleaning, disinfecting or sterilizing the single patient use CO2
airway adapters may compromise functionality and system performance leading
to a user or patient hazard. Performance is not guaranteed if an item labeled as
single patient use is reused.
Inspect the CO2 airway adapters for damage prior to use. Do not use the CO2
airway adapters if they appear to be damaged or broken.
Replace the CO2 airway adapters if excessive secretions are observed.
If the CO2 waveform (Capnogram) appears abnormal, inspect the CO2 airway
adapters and replace if needed.
