6 Plum XL
After the cassette door is closed, turn
the control dial to SET RATE. The
LCD screen displays all the symbols
briefly. Verify the screen display
matches the illustration (shown at the
left) exactly. If the LCD screen does
not match, remove the device from
service and contact hospital or
Hospira technical service personnel.
After the self-test, unplug the Plum XL from AC power and
confirm that BATTERY displays on the screen (indicating
battery power is in use). To ensure the battery is fully charged,
remove the administration set, then plug the Plum XL back in
for a minimum of eight hours in the OFF CHARGE setting.
CAUTION: Do not operate the Plum XL with the battery
removed. The use of a properly maintained and charged
battery ensures proper operation. As always, in the event
of an AC power interruption or failure, verify infusion
pump settings.
Note: If an alarm occurs during the self-test, note the
message, then take the appropriate corrective action (see
TROUBLESHOOTING ). Repeat the self test. If the alarm
recurs, remove the device from service and contact
appropriate personnel.
