Kangaroo™ Joey Enteral Feed and Flush Pump with Pole Clamp

The display should read
SET LOADED
and will show one of the following opening menus, depending on the type of pump set
detected, and whether continuous or intermittent feeding mode has been selected.
Prime Pump
The Kangaroo Joey enteral feed and flush pump with pole clamp may be primed automatically with a single button push, including
the flushing line if a feed & flush set is loaded. The pump can also be primed in a more interactive method using the hold-to-
prime feature.
After a pump set has been loaded and the status line shows
SET LOADED
, press
PRIME PUMP
in the opening menu (Figures
7A-7D) to get one of the
PRIME PUMP
menus shown in Figures 8A and 8B.
Auto Priming
The
AUTO PRIME
option will be available if the pump senses that the currently installed pump set was not previously primed, and
that there is no fluid in the line near the rotor. If auto-priming is desired, press and release
AUTO PRIME
to automatically prime
the line(s). For feed & flush pump sets, the auto prime feature will automatically prime both lines, starting with the flush line.
Press
STOP
to cancel
AUTO PRIME
.
When auto-priming is completed, the status line will show
AUTO PRIME COMPLETE
and will no longer show the
AUTO PRIME
option. Be sure that the line(s) are fully primed. If not, use the hold-to-prime option(s) to complete the priming, as described below.
Hold-to-Prime
The hold-to-prime options allow for precise interactive control of the priming process.
Feed-Only Pump Sets
For feed-only pump sets, the screen will appear as in Figure 8A. Press and hold
HOLD TO PRIME FEED
until the feed line has
been primed down to the stepped end connector at the end of the pump set.
