Monitoring
(HCP-810/HCP-820, HPD-810/HPD-820)

Only one of either HCP-810/HCP-820/HPD-810/HPD-820 can be connected.

When using a sampling line for intubated patients with a closed suction system, do not place the airway adapter
between the suction catheter and endotracheal tube. This is to ensure that the airway adapter does not interfere
with the functioning of the suction catheter.

To prevent cross-infection, do not allow the sampling gas to return to the breathing system.

To protect the hospital staffs from unnecessary anesthetic agent when using the HCP-810/HCP-820, it is
strongly recommended to connect the exhaust hole to the gas exhaust system in the hospital.

Loose or damaged connections of the sampling line may compromise ventilation or cause an inaccurate
measurement of respiratory gases. Securely connect all components and check connections for leaks according
to standard clinical procedures.

Do not cut or remove any part of the sampling line. It could lead to erroneous readings.

If too much moisture enters the sampling line (i.e., from ambient humidity or breathing of unusually humid air)
when using the HCP-810/HCP-820, <Check Sample Line> will be displayed in the message area. Replace the
sampling line once this message is displayed.

Carefully route the sampling line to reduce the possibility of patient entanglement or strangulation.

Do not lift the HCP-810/HCP-820 by the sampling line, as the sampling line could disconnect from the
equipment, causing the equipment to fall on the patient.

readings and respiratory rate can be affected by sensor application errors, certain ambient environmental
conditions, and certain patient conditions.
Precautions for Installing the Monitor

Make sure to secure the equipment using a specified trolley or stand. Otherwise, the equipment may fall down,
resulting in injury to the operator or damage to the equipment.
Precautions about the Trolley

When attaching the monitor to the specified trolley, make sure that it is securely fixed on. Otherwise, the
equipment may fall off from the trolley, resulting in injury to the operator or damage to the equipment.

Make sure to use only the specified trolley. Otherwise, the trolley may fall down, resulting in injury to the
operator or damage to the equipment.

When using or storing the trolley, make sure that the casters are locked. Otherwise, the trolley may fall down,
resulting in injury to the operator or damage to the equipment.

Do not use or store the trolley where it will be subject to inclination of 10 degrees or more. The trolley or
equipment may fall resulting in injury to the operator or damage to the equipment.
Precautions about the System

Use only the spare parts specified for this equipment. Otherwise, proper function cannot be executed.

Do not use the touch panel with the film attached. It may cause malfunction or damage the touch panel.

For quality improvement, specifications are subject to change without prior notice.

This equipment utilizes LED for the backlight. Since this LED deteriorates by the life cycle, the display may
become dark, scintillate, or may not light by the long term use. In such case, contact your nearest service
representative.

This equipment is intended to be used for only one patient.

The installation of this equipment should be performed by our service representative or a person who is well
acquainted with this equipment.

If not using the equipment for a long period, disconnect the power cable, module connection cable and lithium-
ion battery.

The lithium-ion battery can only be charged in the specified operational temperatures of the equipment. Refer
to the operation manual of the lithium-ion battery (BTO-008) for details.
