If the previous solutions do not help your situation, there may be a
problem with the way the tubing is loaded in the pump(s).
1.
Observe how the tubing is loaded in the pump(s) and, if necessary,
reload it.
2.
Make sure the tubing has no holes or cracks. Replace with new
tubing, or move a fresh section of the tubing inside of the pump, if
necessary.
3.
Make sure the tubing is not clogged. Replace with new tubing, if
necessary.
4.
Make sure no part of the tubing is being constricted by a clamp.
Loosen clamps if necessary.
5.
Make sure the pump(s) are properly closed.
1.
Check that the motor is rotating in the correct direction. The pump
motor rotates to drive fluid into the inlets and out of the outlets.
2.
Observe the green LEDs near the pump icons on the membrane
keypad. The lit LEDs point to the inlets.
3.
To change the direction in which the motor rotates, make sure the
display is in the STOPPED Display Mode and refer to Section
5.2.
