Priming the Line
NOTE: The MicroSet™ administration set contains a one-way BodyValve
Therefore, the line cannot be primed using gravity and must be primed either
using the BodyGuard 545 Color Vision™ pump priming function or by pressing
on the manual priming valve if one exists on the set.
In case manual priming is required, use an administration set with special
manual priming valve.
Prime function is used:
Before starting a program

After air in line alarm
2.
Warning: Always disconnect IV tubing from patient before starting priming
procedure.
NOTE: The default priming flow rate is 400 ml/hr (non-adjustable). During
priming, the air in line alarm is disabled.
