Changing The Canister - Cardinal Health ALLY TO GO NPWT Patient User Manual

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 ALLY TO GO™ continues to operate
for approximately 1 hour after the Low Battery Alert sounds.
If the battery charge gets too low, the ALLY TO GO™ shuts off and the negative pressure wound therapy is stopped.
At this point, the ALLY 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 ALLY TO GO™.

2.3 Changing the Canister

When the ALLY TO GO™ detects that the canister needs to be changed, a Canister Full/Blockage alert sounds.
The ALLY TO GO™ continues to work until the canister completely fills. When the canister is completely full, the
ALLY TO GO™ turns off. To change the canister:
1. Clamp the tubing closed (Figure 3).
NOTE: Only applicable if clamp is present on tubing. If clamp is not present, skip to the next step.
Figure 3
2. Turn the ALLY TO GO™ off by pressing the OFF Button.
