Connecting the airway module
1. Check that the airway gas module is installed.
2. Check that the airway adapter connections are tight and that the
adapter is correctly installed.
3. Check that the water trap container is empty and properly
attached.
Empty the water trap container whenever the container is more
than half full. Under normal conditions, the D-fend container fills
in 24 hours.
Before connecting the exhaust line to the sample gas
outlet on the compact airway module, ensure the other
end is connected to the sample gas return port on the
anesthesia machine. Incorrect connections may cause
patient injury.

4. Connect a line from the airway module sample gas outlet to the
sample gas return port on the anesthesia machine.
5. Attach the gas sampling line to the sampling line connector on
the water trap.
6. Turn the system on. The system does a series of automated self
tests. The automatic agent identification is activated.
7. Connect the sampling line to the airway adapter. Take the gas
sample as close to the patient’s airway as possible. Position the
adapter’s sampling port upwards to prevent condensed water
from entering the sampling line.
