System Operation

4.1 Plug the pump into an electrical outlet, and switch on.
4.2 The pump will first go through a self-test routine (Refer to Figure 2).
4.3 At the end of the self-test routine, the pump will "beep" and go into Standby mode, where it will
remain until required for use (Refer to Figure 3).
4.4 Connect the garments to the pump hose set assemblies and make sure the connectors click into
place.
4.5 Check that the connection and garment type are confirmed correctly on the display. Figure 4
