4.1 Getting Started 

Note:

 Read all the Cautions and Warnings listed in section 1 thoroughly before

you use the LSU.

1.  Check that no parts are missing and that all parts are clean. 
2.  If you decide to operate the LSU from external power, connect 
  either external AC- or DC-power to the LSU as described in 
  section 3.4. If you decide to operate the LSU from internal battery, check 

that battery is installed.

3.  Ensure the Patient Suction Tubing is securely connected to the Patient 

Port on the Canister Lid.

4.  Check that a suction catheter is attached to the patient suction tube or 

suction adapter. Do not use the suction tube or suction adapter without 
a suction catheter attached. Proceed as follows:

    

5.  Release the Patient Suction Tubing by releasing the Strap.                      

6  The LSU should be operated in the upright position to prevent overflow 

of suctioned material. 

7.  Set the Operating Knob to the required vacuum level, and the LSU will 

automatically be switched ON and start to operate. The green Power 
ON  Indicator   

is continuously lit while the LSU is switched ON.
