WARNING:
Changing the mattress level from horizontal to Trendelenburg or reverse Trendelenburg can
affect performance of the radiant warmer. Monitor the temperature of the patient. Failure to do
so could result in patient injury.
WARNING:
When placing a patient on the warmer mattress, immediately change from Pre-Warm Mode to
either Manual Mode or Baby Mode. The radiant warmer does not adjust patient temperature
during Pre-Warm mode. Failure to do so could result in patient injury.
CAUTION:
When removing the equipment from the carton, use care not to scratch or otherwise damage
unprotected surfaces.
CAUTION:
Always use the specified filter between the suction canister and the suction tube coming from
the column. Failure to do so could result in equipment damage.
CAUTION:
To keep the suction tube from being blocked or damaged when installing a disposable suction
bottle, position the outlet port parallel to the plate. Make sure that the tubing is not kinked.
CAUTION:
When using AC power, secure the line cord to the back cover to prevent it being removed from
the controller chassis. Failure to do so could result in equipment damage.
CAUTION:
Do not use harsh cleansers/detergents such as scouring pads and heavy-duty grease
removers. Equipment damage could occur.
CAUTION:
Do not steam autoclave warmer parts when disassembling for cleaning. Gas sterilization
temperature must not exceed 54.4 °C (129.9 °F). Equipment damage could occur.
CAUTION:
Do not expose plastic and acrylic to direct radiation from germicidal lamps. Ultraviolet radiation
from these sources could cause cracking of gasket surfaces, fading of paint, and crazing of
plastic and acrylic.
CAUTION:
Do not use alcohol, acetone, or any organic solvents for cleaning. Alcohol can cause crazing of
plastic and acrylic. Equipment damage could occur.
CAUTION:
Do not pull on the tip of the skin probe when cleaning or drying. Probe damage could occur.
