Cleaning the Pump and Accessories
WARNING:
Ensure that debris is not allowed to build up on the pressure plate surface of the pumping
mechanism. Inspect the air detector sensor slot and remove any debris. A blocked air detector
sensor may not detect air present in the fluid path, which could result in serious patient injury
or death.
CAUTION:
•
Do not immerse the pump in cleaning fluid or water. Do not allow solution to soak into the pump,
accumulate on the keypad, or enter the battery compartment, USB port, remote dose cord jack, or
power jack areas. Moisture buildup inside the pump may damage the pump.
•
Do not clean the pump with acetone, other plastic solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as damage to the
pump may occur.
Note:
Refer to the instructions for use for each accessory before proceeding with cleaning.
1. Dampen a soft, lint-free cloth with cleaning solution. Apply the solution to the exterior surface of the
pump or accessory according to manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not allow the solution to soak into the
pump or accessory.
2. Allow the pump to dry completely before use.
