flashes red.
• Operation indicator: Flashes
red.
• Buzzer: Activates.
• Pump: Stops.
• An infusion set other than
those specified is being used.
• If an infusion set other than the ones dedicated is
being used, replace it with a dedicated infusion set.
(See page 19.)
• An occlusion has occurred.
• Inspect the infusion set and eliminate the cause of the
occlusion (remove set if necessary).
• The tube pressed with the
fingers remains flattened and
does not recover.
• Check that the tube recovers to the normal state. If not,
adjust placement.
• Drug solution with high-
viscosity (e.g. glucose
injection) or low-viscosity is
used.
• Considering the size of drops, correct the flow rate and
start solution delivery. (See page 44.)
• The drip sensor is not
attached in the correct position
for detecting dripping of drug
solution.
• Attach the drip sensor to the drip chamber correctly.
(See page 34.) At this time, if the contact part of the
drip chamber is wet, wipe it with a dry cloth.
• The drip volume of the infusion
set is not set correctly.
• Set the correct drip volume. (See page 57.)
• The sensor of the drip sensor
is dirty.
• Clean the drip sensor as described in “Cleaning the
Drip Sensor” on page 88 and re-attach it to the drip
chamber.
