Do not block the fan in the Controller as this may cause overheating.
Although the Warmer has been tested to insure it will survive a drop of 1 m (3.28 ft.), care
should be taken that the device is not dropped to reduce the potential of damage.
Do not clean with:
o ketones (MEK, acetone, etc.) or
o abrasive cleaners.
Do not sterilize the Warmer with:
o steam sterilization (autoclave) or
o dry heat.
Do not disinfect or sterilize the Controller.
Do not spray or pour cleaning solutions directly on the Controller.
Do not allow cleaning solutions to accumulate on the Controller.
When using the Controller mounted to an IV pole, it must be tightly secured on the pole no
higher than 122 cm (48 in.) from the ground. The pole should have a base diameter of no less
than 61 cm (24 in.). A Controller mounted too high on the IV pole may cause instability. IV
pole accessories or the attachment of fluid bags may also cause instability.
Normal wear and tear during use of the Warmer may cause the device to be susceptible to
fluid ingress. Carefully inspect the heating surface of the Warmer for tears or foreign matter
before each use and take out of service if necessary.
Always secure the infusion set with the provided IV Line Clip on the Warmer power cable to
prevent kinking in the line.
Do not use a stiff bristle brush or sharp probe to remove foreign material.
Do not use compressed air to dry.
Avoid puncturing the heating surface. If damaged, remove the Warmer from service and
replace immediately.
This equipment is not intended for use in an oxygen rich environment.
No modification of this equipment is allowed.
Do not position the device in a way which makes it difficult to disconnect the device.
