Do not use a damaged sensor. If the sensor is damaged in any way, discontinue use immediately and replace the sensor. Verify all alarm settings and limits during system startup to ensure that they are set as intended. A hazard can exist if different presets are used on multiple 9847 monitors in one care area.
Before use, carefully read the Instructions for Use provided with sensors and airway adapters. This device is a precision electronic instrument and must be repaired by trained Nonin personnel only. Field repair of the device is not possible. Do not attempt to open the case or repair the electronics. Opening the case may damage the device and void the warranty.

Indications for Use Cautions (Continued) Do not use the airway adapter tube if the airway adapter tube is below 5 °C (41 °F). An airway adapter tube that is below 5 °C (41 °F) may frost, causing a false reading. Warm the airway adapter tube to above 5 °C (41 °F) by putting it in a warm place (for example, in your hands or in a vehicle) prior to use.

The 9847 will typically operate for 90 hours continuously between battery replacements when used for pulse oximetry alone, or for 20 hours continuously when used for both CO detection and pulse oximetry.
General Description Audible Alarms and Informational Tones 9847 uses audible alarms and informational tones (along with visible indicators) to alert healthcare providers to several patient and equipment conditions. A high priority (patient) alarm alerts the healthcare provider of a patient’s absence of breath, high or low oxygen saturation, pulse rate, or inadequate pulse quality signal.
Unpacking the Model 9847 Contact the carrier immediately if the shipping carton is damaged. Carefully unpack the device and its accessories. Nonin’s standard package configuration consists of the following items: • 1 Model 9847 Pulse Oximeter and CO Indicator •...
General Description Installing and Using the Batteries 9847 is powered by six AA size alkaline batteries. Approximate battery capacity: • Pulse Oximeter (SpO ) only: 90 hours • CO and Pulse Oximeter: 20 hours. • CO only: 24 hours. Low battery indicator illuminates when the battery capacity is low. The batteries should be replaced as soon as possible.

• Setting the month to “00” disables the calendar and clock functions and helps conserve battery life. Refer to “Calendar Settings” on page 20 for additional information. • The memory of the 9847 may be erased when the batteries are removed. • Replacing batteries may erase the clock settings of the 9847.
Displays and Indicators Displays and Indicators Display The SpO display is identified by the SpO symbol. This 3-digit light-emitting diode (LED) display shows the current oxygen saturation percentage. Pulse Rate Display The Pulse Rate display is identified by the symbol. This 3-digit LED display shows the pulse rate in pulses per minute.

(Yellow) NOTE: The audible alarm disabled indication cannot be turned off until a sensor is plugged in. NOTE: When 9847 is turned on and the alarms are disabled, the yellow audible alarm disabled indicator will remain illuminated. Pulse Oximeter Startup Apply the pulse oximeter sensor to the patient as directed in the sensor Instructions for Use.
CO sensor fault. Setup On / Standby Advance / All functions of the 9847 are controlled by buttons found on the keypad on Breath Beep the front of the device. Volume Control Press the On/Standby button to turn the device on or to enter Standby Alarm Limit mode.
NOTE: You may exit setup mode at any point and save your current patient alarm limit changes (without stepping through the remainder of the setup mode menu options). Complete the desired selections, then turn off the 9847. Next, enter setup mode again and choose “rCL” (recall stored limits) from the alarm mode settings.
Using the 9847 Pulse Oximeter 2. Release the audible alarm disable button when “888 888” is displayed on the %SpO pulse rate displays. After the power on self-test, the “audible alarm disabled” indicator will illuminate steadily. The patient alarms will be set at the default limits. The audible alarms can be re-enabled by pressing the audible alarm disable button again.
Choosing “dFt” (default alarm limits) will set up the system-defined (default) patient alarm limit settings. Choosing “rCL” (recall stored limits) will set up the last stored patient alarm limit settings of the 9847. Choosing “C02” (no breath alarm limits and sensor alarms) will disable the oxygen saturation high and low and the pulse rate high and low settings temporarily by setting them to “0FF”.
Using the 9847 Pulse Oximeter Pulse Rate Alarm Limit Settings 1. Upon entering the pulse rate low alarm limit, “H L” will appear in the SpO display. The pulse rate low alarm limit may be set from 30 to 110 (beats per minute) in increments of 5, or to “0FF”.
Using the 9847 Pulse Oximeter Visible Indicators Refer to Figure 2 on page 7 for a detailed illustration of the 9847 controls and indicators. The intended operator’s position for correctly perceiving a visual alarm signal and its priority is 1 meter (3.3 feet), per IEC 60601-1-8.
Using the 9847 Pulse Oximeter Alarm Limit Review When the alarm limit review button is pressed and held, the patient alarm limits in effect for %SpO no breath delay time (in seconds), SpO , and pulse rate, as well as the breath beep pitch setting will display in sequence for approximately 2 seconds in the order and format shown in Table 3.
When a breath is again detected, the visible and audible no breath indicators will stop. The no breath delay timer is first started when the CO sensor is plugged into the 9847 and the system is not in setup mode (when the lower bar is illuminated on the CO display).
“audible alarm disabled” indicator will blink. Disabled Indicator After the 9847 is turned on (and after exiting the setup mode, if applicable) and (Yellow) until a pulse oximeter or CO sensor is plugged in for the first time, the “audible alarm disabled”...

Each time the 9847 is turned on, the audible breath beep will default to the medium sound volume setting. During normal operation, pressing the advance switch cycles the audible breath beep sound volume between low, medium, high, and off.
The audible critically low battery alarm is a medium priority equipment alarm indicating that the batteries have reached a critically low level and must be replaced immediately. The 9847 will not monitor patients after the batteries reach a critical power level. Also during this medium priority alarm, the visible low battery indicator blinks.
(For example, a critical battery condition could begin while a no breath condition is occurring). Therefore, the 9847 software uses a set of “rules” to determine the priority of these sounds. These sound control rules are described in Table 5.

The Model 9840SA CO Sensor is a crescent-shaped device containing light emitting and detecting elements (Figure 6) on the end of a cable that connects to the 9847. The CO sensor is connected on to the Model 9840AAT Airway Adapter Tube, which in turn is connected between the endotracheal tube and the breathing circuit of intubated patients.
