7. Operation
Cryo Probe Connection
Observe sterilization protocol before using a Cryo probe (see
section 9). Allow Cryo probe to cool to room temperature after
a sterilization.
Before connecting the Cryo probe inspect it for signs of
obvious damage.
1
Remove sterilisation cap from the probe.
2
Connect the Cryo probe to the console by inserting it
into the coupling and pushing against the spring
operated collar until a positive click is heard. When the
probe is properly connected the relevant Probe Symbol is
displayed together with the Run option.
3
To proceed, the Run button must be pushed.
4
If a reusable probe has been connected, the system
automatically initiates a purging cycle of 90 seconds.
During the purge cycle an animated Wait Symbol is
displayed alongside the Probe Symbol. Three short beeps
signal that the purge cycle is complete.
5
The equipment is now ready for use as indicated by the
timer and the Ready Symbol.
6
If a disposable probe has been connected, there is no
purge cycle.
While the probe is purging all footswitch operations are
disallowed to ensure that the Cryo probe has completed the
minimum purge.
