Starting the Pump
When you start the pump, it will review the program, and
then begin delivering medication. If the pump will not start,
a message should appear on the display.
Refer to the
Messages and Alarms section on page 26.
WARNING: Prior to starting infusion, inspect the fluid path
for kinks, a closed clamp, or other upstream obstructions,
and remove all air bubbles to prevent air embolism. An
undetected upstream occlusion may result in under- or non-
delivery of drug and, depending on the drug being adminis-
tered, could result in death or serious injury. Air embolism
can result in death or serious injury.
