CareFusion recommends limiting
the number of configured syringe types and sizes available for selection on the
pump.
Secure the extension set using the extension set hook at the rear of the pump. This provides protection against
accidental dislodging of the syringe from the pump.
Ensure that both plunger grippers are fully locked onto the plunger flange and the upper finger grip has returned to
its original position.
