Power failure
During a power failure (or if the power switch was turned
off), all valves close, the pump stops, and the Touch Screen
goes blank.
You may still continue your same treatment if the power
returns within eight hours. Depending on how long the
power failure lasts, you may wish to disconnect from your
cycler.
To disconnect from your cycler:
Mask, then wash or sanitize hands as instructed
by your PD nurse.
Insert the stay•safe PIN connector connected to
your catheter extension set into the stay•safe
organizer clip below the control panel
Insert a new stay•safe cap on the left side of the
organizer
Turn the blue button on the PIN connector ¼ turn
clockwise and push it in to make sure that a new
PIN is inserted in the line
Close patient line (blue clamp)
Close catheter extension set clamp
Use aseptic technique to carefully disconnect your
catheter extension set from your patient line and cap off
with a new sterile stay•safe cap
Check that the new sterile stay•safe cap is securely
attached to your catheter extension set before removing
it from the stay•safe organizer
Power restored
When the power is restored to your cycler, turn the Power
Switch on the back of your machine ON if it is not already
on. Your machine will then go through a series of self-tests
before you may choose whether or not to continue with
your treatment.

Note: If the power failure occurs during a Drain,
Fill, Dwell, or Pause, your cycler will keep track of
your current location and progress.
