germicidal solution, but do not allow any fluid into the lumen of the tubes since fluid in the tube could
damage the petMAP severely!
Battery Replacement
petMAP g
II
is originally configured by the manufacturer with 4 AA alkaline batteries. Lithium or
rechargeable NiMH batteries may also be used. The device can operate from good batteries (the
approximate remaining battery life is displayed in an icon at the top of the display) or from line power
using the AC/DC adapter (optional). When the AC/DC adapter is plugged in, it supplies wall power for
the device’s operation, bypassing the batteries, but it does not charge the batteries.
To replace the batteries, follow these steps: (Note: if a cover is being used, it must first be removed)
1) Unplug the petMAP g

AC/DC adapter, if in use.
2) With the unit powered OFF, simultaneously press the battery cover latch while pressing down
on the cover near the latch. Slide the cover away from the unit.
3) Remove the batteries.
4) Noting the polarity, insert the replacement batteries.
5) Slide the cover back into place, confirming that the latch has engaged.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Unit will not turn ON, or shuts OFF, after attempting a power ON .
1. If the unit is new or recently serviced, make sure the battery insulator strip has been removed.
2. The batteries are likely low or defective. Change the batteries. Use known good AA batteries
(fully charged NiMH, Alkaline, or Lithium) when replacing. Alternatively, plug in the AC/DC
adapter (if purchased) to operate the unit from wall power.
3. Hard power OFF reset: Hold the power switch down for 10 seconds, then release it, and then
press it once again to turn the device ON. This is like rebooting a computer and should be done
anytime there is a problem with the operation of the unit.
Difficulty obtaining consistent BP readings (greater than +/ ‐ 15 mmHg from reading to reading).
1. Animal is moving. Calm animal until they are relaxed so determinations can be made during
periods of non ‐ movement.
2. Wrong size cuff used; use a cuff sized so that the index line is in the “OPTIMUM zone” when
snugly fitted to the limb.
3. Cuff not properly snug, i.e., not tight enough on initial placement. Tighten cuff on the limb, but
not constricting tight.
4. Cuff is not in correct location on forearm, hind foot, or tail. Reposition cuff or move to another
approved site and set petMAP using Species/Cuff Site button.
5. Determine if the cuff, hose or connector is leaking air. Observe the deflation steps on the
screen during a BP determination to confirm that each step is about 10% of the cuff pressure
