2 Safety
Risk of injury due to reuse of disposables!
Disposables are intended for single use. Disposables which are
reused may be contaminated and/or impaired in their function
and therefore cause injury to the patient.
 Do not reuse disposables.
Therapy prevented by increased oxygen consumption when
using CCSV mode!
The increased ventilation rate in CCSV mode results in increased
oxygen consumption during resuscitation (approx. 12-30 l/min)
compared with IPPV ventilation.
 Check the fill pressure in the oxygen cylinder regularly.
 Keep reserve oxygen at the ready.
Risk of injury from deactivated alarm light, deactivated audio
alarm output and darkened display in NVG mode!
The alarms are barely perceptible as a result of the deactivated
alarm light, the deactivated audio alarm output and the darkened
display in NVG mode. This can injure the patient.
 Always monitor patients during ventilation.
 Only use the NVG option in the military sector.
Fault or failure of the device or accessory during therapy
due to high-frequency surgical devices in close proximity to
the device!
High-frequency surgical devices in close proximity to the device or
accessory can cause malfunctioning or failure of the device or
accessory. This can result in serious or life-threatening injury to the
patient.
 Do not use the device and accessories in close proximity to
high-frequency surgical devices.
Fault or treatment failure due to incompatibility of the device
with consumables, accessories or other medical devices!
Defective and unauthorized accessories can result in malfunctions,
increased electromagnetic interference emissions and reduced
electromagnetic immunity of the device, incorrect output values
and reduced ventilation performance. This can result in serious or
life-threatening injury to the patient.
 Only connect approved accessories.
Caution Risk of injury through electric shock if the device is touched!
Accessories which are connected to the device may cause an
electrical potential in the device. This may lead to an electric shock
on contact with the device and result in injury to the user.
 Only use accessories from WEINMANN Emergency.
