CONSULT ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTS
The Operating Manual provides valuable information on the proper use of vPad-IV. It is highly recommended the
operator read the instructions thoroughly before operating the device. It is possible to damage vPad-IV and/or
cause harm to the operator if vPad-IV is used incorrectly. Note that the operating manual is incorporated into the
vPad-IV app and may be accessed through the app's "Help" function.
IMPORTANT: Recommended test fluid is distilled water or clean drinking water
This label appears on the left panel of each vPad-IV Module. The test fluid recommended for use with vPad-IV
is distilled water or clean drinking water, for example, bottled water which is demineralized and not carbonated.
DO NOT use saline, dextrose, coloured fluids or opaque fluids with vPad-IV, or connect IV sets to vPad-IV which
may have been contaminated by such fluids. Failure to observe these instructions may result in damage to the
internal flow sensor which is not covered under warranty. Further instructions with respect to the test fluid may
be found in Section 3.5 of this manual. In some cases, cleaning the flow sensor may overcome the detrimental
effects of contamination by an incompatible fluid; refer to Chapter 5, Calibration and Maintenance, for further
instructions.
INPUT
This labelling appears at the fluid input on the front panel of each vPad-IV Module. Refer to the instructions above
with respect to test fluids. Additionally, do not apply a pressure exc2600 mmHg (50 psi or 344 kPa), or
a vacuum less than -260 mmHg (-5 psi or -34.4 kPa), to the INPUT as doing so may create a safety hazard for
the operator and/or cause damage to internal components of the Module.
CAUTION: Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
This warning appears on the serial number label of each vPad-IV Module. Users should read the Operators
Manual to determine what actions to take in the event of failure of the vPad-IV analyzer or app software. Further
instructions may be found in Section 3.6, Troubleshooting, and Chapter 5, Calibration and Maintenance.
