2 Tourniquet start up
2.1
Before taking in use
Before taking in use, turn on the mains switch. Note: If the battery is fully depleted it will turn
off the display. Connect equipment to main power supply, aknowledge a possible warning about
battery low level, and charge until full battery level is displayed (normally up to 3 hours for a
depleted battery).
Protect the instrument from liquids or blood. Use an original Hpm™ coiled hose to
keep the instrument out-of-reach of the patient.
Ensure that the equipment is placed without risk to fall down.
The included coiled air hose has CPC-quick connectors in both ends. The male end fits in the
device's air outlet female CPC-connector and the female connector in the other end fits with the
male connector of the cuff.
The air outlets, coiled hoses and the cuffs are color coded. Blue color indicates distal side and red
color indicates proximal side.
Cuff is applied parts. Make sure to place tourniquet out of reach for patient.
The touch screen acts on command from one pressure point, multiple pressure points
on screen can give unwanted commands. Make sure to just press with one finger.
When moving and starting up the unit again, make sure all the connections are
properly attached and perform a diagnostic test of the unit to make sure everything works
properly.
