5.2.1 Daily Checklist
The following tests must be carried out at the
beginning of every working day:
Alarm System
WARNING
The operation of each alarm function should be verified
daily.
If the audible alarm or the visual display for any alarm
function fails to activate during any alarm condition or
fails to reset after the alarm has been cleared, refer the
unit to an authorised service technician.
Back-up Battery
WARNING
If the internal battery is fully discharged, the ventilator
will not function.
Recharge the battery before the ventilator is used
clinically.
Charging the battery for 14 hours from a discharged
state will allow a minimum of 30 minutes of
continuous operation.
Connect the ventilator to a mains power supply. The
mains power indicator will illuminate to show that the
battery is being charged (it is not necessary to turn on
the ventilator).

selection is made.
