INSTRUCTION FOR USE
• The device must be checked before each use in order to detect malfunctions and / or damage caused by
transport and / or storage.
• The working position must be such as to allow one to reach the control panel and to have a good view of
the empty indicator, the jar and the antibacterial filter.
• It is recommended not to keep the device in your hands and / or to avoid prolonged contact with the body
of apparatus.
WARNING: For proper use, place the aspirator on a flat, stable surface in order to have the full volume
of use of the jar and better efficiency of the overflow device.
• Connect one end of the short silicon tube, with antibacterial filter, to the suction connector on the lid of the
jar.
• The other tube, connected to the filter on one end, must be attached to the connector on the flask cover to
which the float is secured inside. (overflow device). The overflow device starts working (the float closes the
connector on the cover) when the maximum volume of liquid is reached, so no liquid can enter the machine
(90% of the flask’s total volume), thus ensuring that the liquid cannot penetrate inside the machine. The
device must be used on a flat work top.
Filter assembling
Make sure the filter is assembled with the arrows on the side of the patient.
WARNING: The inside of the medical device must be regularly checked for the presence of liquids
or other visible contamination (secretions). In the presence of liquids or other visible contamination,
immediately replace the medical device due to the risk of an insufficient vacuum flow rate.
These products have been designed, tested and manufactured exclusively for single patient use and
for a period no longer than 24 hours.
• Connect the long silicone tube to the “PATIENT” jar outlet
• Connect the other end of the long silicon tube to the probe plastic connector, then connect the suction
probe to it.
• Connect the power cord to the device then connect the plug to the electrical mains supply.
• Push switch on position I to start suction.
• Unscrew the lid of the jar and fill the jar 1/3 full or ordinary water (this assists the unit to reach peak vacuum
performance and makes clean-up easier) then re-screw the lid on the jar correctly.
• During operation the jar has to be in vertical position to avoid overflow valve to cut off aspiration. Should
this happen, switch off the device and disconnect the tube from the jar cover (from “VACUUM” outlet).
• Once finished push switch on O position and unplug.
• Remove the accessories and clean.
• At the end of each use, place the device in its box away from dust.
WARNING: The power supply cable plug is the element of separation from the electrical mains system: even
if the units equipped with a special on / off switch button, the power supply plug must be kept accessible once
the device is in use so as to allow a further method of disconnection from the mains supply system.
