Warning
To avoid a fire hazard, keep matches, lighted cigarettes, and all other sources of
ignition (e.g., flammable anesthetics and/or heaters) away from the 700 Series
Ventilator System and oxygen hoses.
Do not use oxygen hoses that are worn, frayed, or contaminated by combustible
materials such as grease or oils. (Textiles, oils, and other combustibles are easily ignited
and burn with great intensity in air enriched with oxygen.)
In case of fire or a burning smell, immediately disconnect the ventilator from the
oxygen supply and electrical power source.
Warning
Patients on life-support equipment should be appropriately monitored by competent
medical personnel and suitable monitoring devices.
The 700 Series Ventilator System is not intended to be a comprehensive monitoring
device and does not activate alarms for all types of dangerous conditions for patients
on life-support equipment.
Warning
An alternative source of ventilation should always be available when using the 700
Series Ventilator System.
Caution
For a thorough understanding of ventilator operations, be sure to read the
700 Series Ventilator System Operator’s Manual
in its entirety before attempting to use
the system.
Caution
Before activating any part of the ventilator, be sure to check the equipment for proper
operation and, if appropriate, run the self-diagnostic programs described in Chapter 3.
Caution
Federal law (US) restricts the sale of this device to, or by the order of, any physician.
Caution
Check the ventilator periodically as outlined in the service manual; do not use if
defective. Immediately replace parts that are broken, missing, obviously worn,
distorted, or contaminated.
