Start the Treatment
CAUTION
Make sure that the blood path of the Flow Diagram lights up, if it
does not light up, check that the venous blood line is correctly placed
in the priming detector. If the blood path does not light up, the
machine considers the patient not connected and as a consequence
the UF system is not controlling the patient ultrafiltration.
If the air detector has not been activated during priming it will not be
automatically activated until the priming detector detects blood.
CAUTION
1. Check/adjust the blood
fl
ow rate to the required
value suitable for the particular patient using the
Blood Pump Up/Down keys

fl
ow rate
when the blood pump is running in the arterial phase of the

not
the mean blood

as necessary.
