Alarm Clearing & User Prompt Displays<br />

* BATT LOW: < 30 minutes of battery power remains. Plug the pump<br />

in.<br />

* BATT CHRG: E.../...F. The slash indicates the approximate amount of<br />

battery charge remaining. E (empty) F (full).<br />

* BATT ON: The pump is running on battery. The lit plug symbol denotes<br />

AC outlet operation.<br />

* CHEK CLMP: Move the roller clamp to either the full open or closed<br />

position.<br />

* CLR AIR/CLR ↑ OCC/PUSH RUN:<br />

Note: The upstream sensor detects both air-in-line <strong>and</strong> upstream<br />

occlusions. The user must determine which problem is causing the alarm.<br />

1. LARGE BUBBLES:<br />

- Push RUN. Each RUN key actuation advances 0.1ml of fluid.<br />

The pump will remain running when the air bubble moves<br />

below the air sensor.<br />

- Follow policy for removal of air<br />

2. MICROBUBBLES:<br />

- Remove the IV set from the UPSTREAM SENSOR.<br />

- Tap the tubing, driving all microbubbles upstream.<br />

- Reload the IV set into the UPSTREAM SENSOR.<br />

- Push RUN.<br />

- If nuisance alarms persist, the air/upstream occlusion<br />

sensor may be turned off by using a flow sensor (drop<br />

sensor). Note that the flow sensor will not fit most drip<br />

chambers on blood sets.<br />

3. ↑ ↑ OCCLUSION:<br />

- Eliminate the cause of the upstream occlusion.<br />

- Push RUN.<br />

Note: Repeated pushes of RUN without eliminating the cause of<br />

the upstream occulsion will eventually prevent the RUN key from<br />

restarting the pump. If this happens, eliminate the occlusion cause,<br />
