(Consult Technical Service Manual, appropriately trained technical personnel or CareFusion for further information). • This pump is not intended to be used in the presence of a flammable anaesthetic mixture with air or oxygen or nitrous oxide.
  • Page 10 MRI compatible pump as such. If use of the pump within an MRI environment is unavoidable, then CareFusion highly recommends securing the pump at a safe distance from the magnetic field outside the identified ‘Controlled Access Area’ in order to evade any magnetic interference to the pump; or MRI image distortion.
  • Page 11: Getting Started

    Getting Started Initial Set-up Before operating the pump read this Directions For Use manual carefully. 1. Check that the pump is complete, undamaged and that the voltage rating specified on the label is compatible with your AC power supply. 2. Items supplied are: Alaris®...
  • Page 12 Getting Started (continued) Do not mount the pump with the AC power inlet or the syringe pointing upwards. This could affect the electrical safety in the event of a fluid spill or lead to the infusion of air which may be in the syringe. Pole Clamp Installation The pole clamp is fitted to the rear of the pump and will provide secure fixing to vertical I.V.

    Syringe Loading Prepare Syringe and Administration Set To decrease potential start-up delays, delivery inaccuracies and delayed generation of occlusion alarms each time a new syringe is loaded: • Use smallest syringe size possible, for example, if delivering 9 ml of fluid, use a 10 ml syringe. •...
  • Page 14 Syringe Loading (continued) Loading and confirming a Syringe Warning: To securely load and confirm a syringe carefully follow the steps below. An incorrect loading of a syringe may result in misidentification of the syringe type and size. If then confirmed, this may lead to significant inaccuracy of the infusion rate and may also affect pump performance.
  • Page 15 CareFusion recommends limiting the number of configured syringe types and sizes available for selection on the pump.
  • Page 16: Starting The Pump

    Starting the pump 1. Connect the pump to an AC power supply using the AC power cable. Press the button. The pump will run a short self-test. Ensure that two beeps are activated during this test. Check the display test pattern and ensure that no rows are missing. Check that the displayed time and date are correct.
  • Page 17 Starting the Pump (Continued) 8. CONFIRM SYRINGE - Check that the syringe type and size being used matches the display. If required, the make of syringe can be changed by pressing the TYPE button. Press CONFIRM when the correct type and size are shown.
