Low Battery Alert
While running on battery, a Low Battery alert "chirps" every 10 seconds and the OFF Button flashes when remaining
capacity of the battery is less than 20 percent (3.2 Troubleshooting). Typically, the PRO/PRO to GO continues to
operate for approximately 1 hour after the Low Battery Alert sounds.
If the battery charge gets too low, the PRO/PRO to GO shuts off and the negative pressure wound therapy is stopped.
At this point, the PRO/PRO to GO must be plugged into an outlet using the A.C. Power Adapter for negative pressure
wound therapy to resume. Once the A.C. Power Adapter is plugged in, press the ON Button to restart the PRO/PRO to GO.

2.3 Changing the Canister

When the PRO/PRO to GO detects that the canister needs to be changed, a Canister Full alert sounds. The PRO/PRO to GO
continues to work until the canister completely fills. When the canister is completely full, the PRO/PRO to GO turns off.
To change the canister:
1. Clamp the tubing closed (Figure 1).
2. Turn the PRO/PRO to GO off by pressing the OFF Button.
3. Disconnect SpeedConnect™ tubing connector from top of canister by twisting off the tapered connector.
4. To remove the canister, press the Canister Release Button located above the canister and gently pull the bottom of
canister down to remove from the PRO/PRO to GO.
5. Cap the canister and ask your healthcare professional how to properly dispose of a used canister.
6. To install a new canister, hold the new unused canister at the bottom and slide upwards into the holder.
7. Line up the two ports on the canister with the two ports on the PRO/PRO to GO. Press the canister up and into the
PRO/PRO to GO until it clicks and locks into place.
8. Connect the distal end of the SpeedConnect™ tubing with the blue tapered connector to the patient port of the
canister. Gently twist and push the connector on just enough to secure and seal it.
9. Reopen the tubing clamp by pushing down on the top of the clamp until it releases.
10. Turn the PRO/PRO to GO on by pressing the ON Button to resume negative pressure wound therapy.
