11. Operating Instructions – Prepare for Therapy
WARNING
CHECK FLUID LEVEL IN PATIENT LINE
BEFORE CONNECTING
Do not connect to your patient line unless the fluid level is
at or near the connector at the end of the disposable set
patient line. Connecting when air is present will result in
sterile air being delivered during the first Fill if there was
no Initial Drain. Air introduced into your peritoneal cavity
can cause shoulder or abdominal pain.
To ensure proper priming:
Verify that the white clamp on the patient line is open.
Verify that the end of the patient line, or the end of the
Patient Extension Line when an extension is used, is
placed in the left slot in the blue organizer.
Before connecting yourself:
Verify that the fluid level is at or near the connector at
the end of the disposable set patient line.
If the fluid level is not near the connector, reprime the
patient line. Press the
STOP
then
V
button to access
the REPRIME PATIENT LINE screen. Verify that the
patient line is properly primed. See 11.8.1, Reprime the
Patient Line , on page 11-23. There is no need to load a
new set.

NOTE:
If a Low Recirculation Volume set is not primed
properly, and the Fill Volume is less than 100 mL, a LOW
DRAIN VOLUME alarm can occur. Improper priming in
these conditions can also contribute to negative UF alarms
later in the therapy.
