Cuff Application; Battery Operation - Aircast VenaFlow Elite Operator's Manual

Compliance Alarm
1) If the cuffs are removed from the patient while the device
is still functioning and the cuffs are not reapplied after 15
minutes, a visual alarm will flash and the graphical display
will read "COMPLIANCE ALARM". Additionally, the pump
indicator lights on the side of the system will flash red.

the cuffs within 9-15 minutes after resetting the alarm in order to prevent another
compliance alarm from occurring.
3) If cuffs are reapplied without resetting the alarm, the compliance alarm will
automatically reset after 9-15 minutes

properly, the Call For Service alarm symbol will appear on
the graphical display and it will alternate with the text "CALL
FOR SERVICE". Additionally, the pump indicator lights on the

2) If Call For Service alarm occurs, unplug the device and call
DJO Technical support at 800-336-6569 extension 5566 for further instructions.

Battery Operation

The VenaFlow Elite can be installed with a battery upon request at the time of the
initial system order. When the battery-installed system is powered on, this battery icon
will appear on the right side of the graphical display beneath the single/dual leg mode
icon. If the system does not have a battery installed, then there will be no battery
icon on the graphical display at all. When the system with battery is unplugged and
powered on, the system will automatically switch to battery power.
The battery must be charged before use. Once a system has been configured to run
with a battery, it must always have a battery installed. Otherwise a 'LOW BATTERY'
alarm will continuously occur. See 'Specifications' section for battery pack information.
Battery Charging Instructions
1) To charge the battery, simply plug in the system to an electrical outlet either while
the system is on and functioning, or when it is powered off. The system will begin
charging immediately after being plugged in.
2) The VenaFlow Elite System with a fully charged battery will last for approximately
2 hours. It takes an estimated 2 hours to fully charge the battery when the unit is
off. When the unit is on, it takes an estimated 4 hours to charge the battery.
