Operation

6.1 Preparing for ventilation

Requirement • The device and accessories have been cleaned and disinfected
(see "8 Cleaning and disinfection", page
• The device is ready for use
• The function check is complete
page 39).
Failure of treatment due to insufficient oxygen capacity and/
or battery capacity!
Insufficient oxygen capacity and/or battery capacity prevents
patient ventilation. This can result in serious or life-threatening
injury to the patient.
 Perform a full function check before every use.
 Only start ventilation if, during the function check, the alarm
indicating insufficient battery capacity is not emitted.
 Check the oxygen cylinder pressure prior to ventilation.
 Do not start ventilation if there is insufficient oxygen cylinder
pressure.
 Keep an alternative ventilation unit at the ready.
Damage to the oxygen cylinder due to corrosion!
Moist ambient air may enter oxygen cylinders which have been
completely emptied and cause corrosion.
 Do not empty oxygen cylinders completely.
Damage to the device due to pressure blows on fittings!
Opening the oxygen cylinder valve too quickly can lead to strong
pressure blows and can damage the oxygen cylinder or the fitting.
 Always open the oxygen cylinder valve slowly.
1. If necessary: Connect the low-pressure hose assembly to the
oxygen cylinder or the central gas supply.
