structions.
WARNING
Risk of burns
Conductive breathing hoses or face masks
may cause burns during HF surgery.
Do not use these types of hoses and masks in
combination with HF surgery.
WARNING
Risk of strangulation
If not positioned with care, hoses, cables, and
similar machine components may endanger
the patient.
Take special care when connecting the pa-
tient.
WARNING
Risk due to particles and dust
To protect the patient from particles and dust,
a filter must be used between the inspiratory
limb of the breathing system and the patient.
Use a Y-piece filter or filter on the inspiratory
port.

Primus (without accessories) is not made with nat-
ural rubber latex.
To minimize the risk of exposure to latex, use latex-
