10. Prior to testing:
•
Inspect the syringe and Spiragrip to ensure that the pressure tubing is not kinked or damaged.

•
Keep the syringe and Spiragrip completely still immediately before and after tapping
NEXT

. The Spirometer Calibration Check screen appears.
Use the required BAR 228 to enter the atmospheric pressure prior to the Calibration Spirometer
Check. For more information on BAR 228, see these sections:
•
Set Up the BAR 228 for Spirometry
•
•
The BAR 228 auto-enters the atmospheric pressure, as indicated by the
animation.
12. Confirm entry of atmospheric pressure from the BAR 228 prior to proceeding with the Spirometer
Calibration check.
13. Only if the BAR 228 is not available, select
Manual
in Spirometer Settings (4.2.4 Spirometry Settings)
and enter atmospheric pressure in the screen depicted above per the following requirement.
Caution
