5. Insert the pump key
into the cassette/
keypad lock and turn
clockwise into the
locked position.
NOTE: The cassette
must be locked in
order to start the
pump. "Cassette Locked" will
appear briefly in the status bar.
WARNING: Attach the cassette properly. A
detached or improperly attached cassette
could result in unregulated gravity infusion of
medication from the fluid container or a reflux
of blood, which could result in death or injury
to the patient.
If you are using a CADD
CADD™ medication cassette reservoir that does
not have the flow stop feature: you must use a
®
CADD
extension set with anti-siphon valve
®
or a CADD
administration set with either an
integral or add-on anti-siphon valve to protect
against unregulated gravity infusion that can
result from an improperly attached cassette.
Unregulated gravity infusion can result in
death or serious injury.
