5. Operating Instructions
5.1. Start Up and Setting the Ventilation Parameters
A. Turn on the ventilator:
Ensure that the gas supply is turned on before start up to ensure
that the calibration process is performed correctly.
To turn on the ventilator, press the ON/ OFF key (N) (Figure 01) for
one second. During that second the associated green LED will start
blinking at a high frequency. After 1 second the ventilator will turn
on but with no ventilation at this point. If the key is pressed and
released for less than a second, the ventilator will remain OFF.
Note:
Start-up fi gures are used during start up only and are not active
during ventilation.
B. Start default ventilation:
Once the ventilator is turned on, 3, solid silhouette, start-up fi gures
(Figure 06) will be displayed on the screen representing Infant, Child
and Adult patient sizes.
Each patient size displayed during start-up comes with pre-set
parameters to help users to select the ventilation settings close to
their patient size. This will eliminate the need for a potentially lengthy
set up procedures prior to starting ventilation.
