3.
Care must be taken to prevent liquids from entering the ventilator. Never submerge the ventilator
and avoid using excessive amounts of water that might enter the unit.
4.
Never use abrasives or chlorinated hydrocarbon based cleansers when cleaning the ventilator, they
will damage the plastic and interface lens.
WARNING!
Never use oil or grease of any kind with O

or compressed gas equipment.
Storage Information
For optimal prolonged storage periods, the device should be stored indoors. The environment should be
clean and out of direct sunlight. Storage in non-controlled environments is permissible if batteries are
removed.
For long-term storage, the optimum storage temperature range is -15 C to 21 C (5 F to 71 F). Battery life is
diminished at temperatures above 35 C (95 F). It is recommended that batteries be discharged to 50%
capacity if long term storage above 35 C (95 F) is expected. DO NOT store batteries in a discharged
condition. Short-term, less than 10 days, storage temperatures should range between -15 C to 49 C (5 F
and 120 F) with no degradation to the device.
CAUTION!
DO NOT
store batteries in a discharged condition.
When batteries are in extended storage, it is recommended that they receive a refresh charge at
recommended intervals when not continuously connected to an external power source:
STORAGE AMBIENT
RECHARGE INTERVAL
Below 68 F (20 C)
12-months
68 F to 86 F (20 C to 30 C)
6-months
86 F to 104 F (30 C to 40 C)
3-months
Following periods of extended storage in non-controlled environments, allow the device sufficient time to
stabilize to a temperature within its specified operating range (see section entitled BATTERY CARE AND
RECHARGING).
If the device is subject to 6-months of continuous storage/non-use, or longer, this device should be powered
on to initiate the device’s self test routine. The user should confirm that the batteries are sufficiently
charged before patient-use is attempted.
Post-Contaminated Environment Cleaning
If the ventilator is operated in an environment where it may have been exposed to contamination from a
hazardous materials accident, mass epidemic or weapon of mass destruction, Impact recommends that the
guidelines below be followed.
1.
The ventilator’s outer case should be cleaned with a damp soapy cloth and thoroughly dried
with a lint-free cloth. Make sure that all exposed surfaces are cleaned and dried.
2.
For general decontamination/cleaning situations, a 10% bleach solution applied with a damp
cloth is an effective decontaminant that can be used. Since the potential amount of
contaminants that our ventilators might be exposed to is so large, it is difficult to provide an
appropriate cleaning method for each type of exposure. An effective cleaning agent for one
type of exposure may not be effective with another and cleaning and sterilizing practices may
vary between institutions. Impact Instrumentation, Inc. suggests that each facility have in place
