-Also at every pump stop, confirm there is no flow.<br />

12. At pump start <strong>and</strong> following any parameter change, confirm that all<br />

pump entries (RATE, etc.) are properly set. Be aware that accidental<br />

entry of wrong values may occur <strong>and</strong> must be guarded against. Also,<br />

never use pumps whose displays look garbled, odd, or pumps whose<br />

displays fail to show eight solid 8’s at power on (send faulty pumps for<br />

service).<br />

13. To avoid unauthorized tampering with <strong>and</strong> changing of pump<br />

parameters (RATE, etc.), it is recommended practice to always use<br />

KEYLOCK Option 11.<br />

14. In rare instances, pump failures may result in the pump stopping with<br />

the IV set locked in the pump. To resume the infusion; close the roller<br />

clamp, use a pen or similar sharp pointed object to push the LEVER<br />

LOCKING PIN up into the pump housing (see the bottom of the<br />

LEVER), open the LEVER, remove the set from the defective pump,<br />

<strong>and</strong> install it in a second pump. DO NOT remove the IV set by cutting<br />

or tearing the tubing. Possible free flow may occur.<br />

15. Infiltrations are not detected by the pump. They must be observed <strong>and</strong><br />

minimized by operators.<br />

16. Dropped or damaged pumps should not be used <strong>and</strong> must be returned<br />

to Biomed to confirm calibration. For accuracy complaints, leave set<br />

loaded in pump <strong>and</strong> send pump with set to Biomed for evaluation.<br />

17. <strong>Pump</strong>s should be tested for proper performance annually.<br />

18. If the piggyback volume limit is less than the piggyback container’s<br />

volume, residual piggyback medication will run at the primary flow<br />

rate once the piggyback volume limit has been delivered.<br />

19. During cleaning, do not allow fluid to seep inside the pump through<br />

vent holes or severe damage may occur.<br />

20. DANGER: EXPLOSION HAZARD. DO NOT USE IN THE<br />

PRESENCE OF FLAMMABLE ANESTHETICS. RISQUE<br />

D’EXPLOSION, NE PAS EMPLOYER EN PRESENCE<br />

D’ANESTHESIQUES INFLAMMABLES.<br />

21. Electric shock hazard. There are no user serviceable parts. Do not<br />

open the case. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.<br />
