MORPHEUS
In order to understand how the MORPHEUS anaesthesia unit works and how
to use it correctly to ensure patient and user safety, the recommendations
and instructions contained in this manual must be read with care and
understood.
The anaesthesia unit must only be used for the purposes specified herein
and the safety of the equipment is therefore only guaranteed if it is used in
accordance with the instructions given in this User's Manual.
The materials used were carefully selected during the design stage after
specific checks, tests and comparative trials: these materials are also
constantly inspected during the production cycle to achieve the best results in
terms of reliability and safety for the patient and the operator. Any part of
circuit must therefore only be replaced with original spare parts supplied or
checked by SIARE.
The anaesthesia unit must only be used by qualified personnel and only in
equipped and dedicated rooms, according to the regulations in force in the
country where the equipment is installed.
To ensure correct technical assistance and avoid possible physical damage
to the patient, the maintenance schedule foreseen in this manual must be
respected; qualified personnel must only carry out maintenance of the
anaesthesia unit or authorised modifications to the equipment. The user of
this product is solely responsible for any operating defect caused by improper
use or interventions carried out by third parties other than specialised SIARE
personnel.
For any repairs to anaesthesia unit (due to malfunctioning, defects or
failures), the user must contact SIARE or the authorised local Technical
Service Centre; it is advisable to specify the data on the identification label
(model, serial number, ......) when requesting intervention.
SIARE recommends establishing a maintenance and service contract with
SIARE or the local authorised service dealer in order to guarantee the
scheduled maintenance required to operate the anaesthesia unit in a safe
and correct manner.
To prevent the risk of fire, keep the anaesthesia unit and/or the oxygen tubes
of the equipment away from matches, lit cigarettes and inflammable material,
such as anaesthetic gases and/or sources of heat.
