Start Up The Device - Weinmann VENTIlogic LS Instructions For Use Manual

5.2 Start up the device

5.2.1 Operating states
Three operating states are possible on the therapy device: on, off and standby.
If the device is switched on, therapy is in progress.
In standby, the blower is switched off, but the device is immediately operational with a
brief press of the On/Off key as long as the patient circuit is connected correctly. Settings
can be made on the device in standby mode.
If the device is switched off completely, the blower and the display are likewise switched
off and no settings can be made on the device.

Operation
1. Connect the device to the power supply with the aid
of the power cord. The standby screen appears on the
display.
2. First, perform a function check (see "7. Function
check" on page 71).
3. Connect the patient circuit to the patient/ventilator
interface. It is essential to follow the relevant
instructions for use for the patient/ventilator interface,
the patient circuit and, if appropriate, the exhalation
system.
Caution!
Always use a separate exhalation system for
leakage ventilation (e.g. Silentflow leakage
ventilation), otherwise the CO
would rise to critical values in the patient/
ventilator interface and tube and thus obstruct
the patient's breathing.
