knob clockwise until all air pressure is gone.
If pressure will not release using the relief knob:
a. Place a rag over the top of the tank and pump handle.
b. While firmly pushing down on the pump handle, slowly turn the handle counter-
clockwise.
NEVER leave a pressurized tank unattended.

Step 5: Disconnect the Trauma Fill Tank Umbilical from the Simulator

Disconnect the Trauma Fill Tank Umbilical from the simulator and store the assembly out of the
way for later use.
After use, ALWAYS release pressure and clean the tank.

Preparing for Storage

After filling and using the Trauma Fill Tank and the simulator's blood reservoir, both must be
cleaned for storage.

Step 1: Clean the Simulator and Fluid System

When the simulation is completed and the Trauma Fill Tank has been disconnected, remove
the fluids and clean the simulator (see Cleaning the Simulator and the On Board Bleeding System
in the Care and Maintenance section of this User Guide).

Step 2: Clean the Trauma Fill Tank

Before storing the Trauma Fill Tank, make sure the equipment is clean (see Cleaning the Trauma
Fill Tank in the Care and Maintenance section of this User Guide.)

Step 3: Store the Trauma Fill Tank

After cleaning, the Trauma Fill Tank assembly should be stored securely for future use.
a. Allow the interior of the tank to dry by loosening the pump assembly. Do NOT
leave the pump assembly out of bottle, however, because dust contaminates the
system.
b. Loosely wrap the Trauma Tank Umbilical around the neck of the tank to protect it.
c. Store all components in a clean, dry area.
