Notes

•
This product does not contain natural latex rubber or dry
natural rubber in patient or operator accessible areas or
in the air path or breathing circuit.
Do not steam autoclave the ventilator. Doing so will destroy the
ventilator.
Do not immerse the device in liquid or allow any liquid to enter the
enclosure or inlet filter.
Do not spray water or any other solutions directly onto the ventilator.
Do not use harsh detergents, abrasive cleaners, or brushes to clean the
ventilator system. Use only cleaning agents and methods listed in this
manual.
Exhalation valves, patient circuits, and water traps are shipped clean,
not sterile. Cleaning and disinfection of these parts should follow
individual institution processes and conform to guidelines provided by
Philips Respironics with each accessory.
Do not use the same external battery to operate both the ventilator
and any other equipment such as power chairs.
An external battery should only be connected to the ventilator using
the Philips Respironics Trilogy External Battery Cable. This cable is
fused, pre-wired, and properly terminated to ensure safe connection
to a standard deep-cycle, lead acid battery. Use of any other adapter or
cable may cause improper operation of the ventilator.
The ventilator should only be connected to an automotive electrical
system using the Philips Respironics Trilogy Automotive Adapter
(when available). This adapter is fused, filtered, and designed for safe
connection to a standard automotive electrical system. Use of any
other adapter or cable may cause improper operation of the ventilator.
Do not operate the ventilator from a car electrical system when
starting the vehicle or jump-starting the vehicle. Electrical transients
during starting may cause improper operation of the ventilator.
Do not use antistatic or conductive hoses or conductive patient tubing
with the device.
