9 MAINTENANCE

Instructions on how to change the fuses, maintain the Console, and visually inspect the
Motor cable for damage are provided below.
WARNING
The Console is serviceable (e.g. opening of the housing) only by a Abbott
Medical service representative or Abbott Medical authorized representative.

9.1 Changing Fuses

CAUTION
The Console must be unplugged from AC power source while replacing fuses.
Main System fuses are located just above the receptacle for the AC power cord on the
rear panel of the Console.
To change a fuse, follow the steps below:
1) Unplug the Console.
NOTE: Fuses can be replaced while the Console is operational on battery power,
but the Console MUST be unplugged from AC power source while replacing fuses.
2) Locate the Fuse Cartridge Release Tab and gently press up on the Tab with a
small flathead screwdriver inserted into the Release Tab Slot. The Fuse Cartridge
will partially eject.
3) Gently remove the Fuse. The fuses are secured in the end of the cartridge.
4) Remove a blown fuse by pulling the fuse out from the cartridge, and replace it only
with an identical "5 x 20 mm, T 3.15A L 250V" fuse for Version 1 or T 3.15A H
250V" fuse for Version 2. (Consult Abbott Medical for recommended
replacements.)
5) After blown fuses have been replaced, secure the Fuse Cartridge in place by
pushing the cartridge into its receptacle until the Release Tab clicks into place.
6) Reconnect the Console to AC power.

9.2 Maintenance Following Each Patient Use

CAUTION
DO NOT spray bactericidal solution directly on the Console. Spray bactericidal
or cleaning solutions on a cloth, and then wipe surfaces with the cloth. Spraying
fluids into the air holes of the Console may create permanent damage
Immediately after removing a patient from Pump support, the Console should be
thoroughly cleaned using the following procedure:
1) Disconnect AC power before cleaning the exterior of the main Console.
2) Clean the exterior of the Console with bactericidal solution by spraying the solution
on a cloth and wiping off the unit.
