Necessary operating steps
1
Preparing the IES 3
Depending on which electrosurgical unit you are working with, certain
preparation steps are necessary.
Read the appropriate chapter in this User Manual: e.g. The IES 3 in
combination with a VIO 3 electrosurgical unit.
2
Connecting the accessories
Connect the desired accessories, e.g. prefilter, water trap, instru-
ment.
3
Switch on the device
4
Select the suction mode
Compared to the OPEN mode, the LAP mode has a lower suction capac-
ity with the same settings, and doesn't have a turbo button. These fea-
tures of the LAP mode serve to protect the patient during laparoscopic
surgery and to support the stability of the pneumoperitoneum.
5
Suctioning
You can suction with the settings of the device or choose to change the
settings (see back).
Option 1
• You use the IES 3 with an Erbe electrosurgical unit VIO 3, VIO D/S
series and the devices are connected to each other.
• You use the IES 3 with any desired electrosurgical unit and the au-
tomatic activation device is installed.
Activating the HF instrument.
The IES 3 starts automatically.

IES 3
Option 2
• You use the IES 3 without connection with an Erbe electrosurgical
unit and without an automatic activation device.
Activate the IES 3 with the footswitch or with the activation but-
ton on the touchscreen of the device.
Activation screen: The segments on the right-hand side of the screen
show the course of the suction shut-off delay. The segments on the
left-hand side of the screen show the course of the standby suction
time (not visible in the image).
Order of suction types
So long as you activate the HF instrument or press the footswitch or
activation button, suction is active. If you have selected times above
0 s in the Settings menu, the suction shut-off delay and the standby
suction time will follow respectively.

Checking the filter capacity
Observe the remaining filter display and the messages on the touch-
screen.
