Carbon Dioxide (CO
Tube
WARNING: Do not use the Model 9847 CO
old and weighing less than 10 kg (22 lb) due to the dead space introduced by the
airway adapter tube.
WARNING: Do not use a damaged sensor. If the sensor is damaged in any way,
discontinue use immediately and replace the sensor.
CAUTION: Before use, carefully read the instruction insert provided with the

CAUTION: Water or other liquid between the airway adapter tube and the CO
!
sensor may cause erroneous readings.
CAUTION: Ensure that all connections to the airway adapter tube are tight and
!
leak-free, and that the airway adapter tube is properly attached to the CO
