CO- 1.0.9 CHECK/SET TEMPERATURE
a) Press the 'Escape' key to call the Home screen.
b) Watch Temperature for one minute. Is it between 35 and 39° C AND stable (i.e. does NOT vary
greater than +/- 0.15° C)?
Yes Check the Temperature Set Point as follows:
a) From the Home screen, select the screen's Temperature window. It turns bright yellow
and displays the "Temp Setting".
b) Set Temperature to 37° C.
c) Press the 'CONFIRM' key. The window returns to pale yellow. This establishes the
Temperature alarm limits at 39 and 35° C.

CO- 1.0.10 CHECK CONCENTRATE SETTINGS
a) Select the 'Dialysate' tab, at the bottom of the screen, to call the 'CONFIRM Concentrate' screen (see
Figure 55, page 129).
b) Proceed accordingly based on if BICARBONATE or ACETATE (rarely, if ever used) is selected:
BICARBONATE IS SELECTED i.e. [Bicarbonate] window NOT = 0:
Identification ('ID') AND 'Type' (45x, 36.83x, etc) of the 'Currently Selected Acid' matches what
is connected to the machine per its labeling
Value in the [Bicarbonate] window set as it would be for a typical patient treatment. It MUST not
be = 0
Value in the [Base Na+] (sodium) window set as it would be for a typical patient treatment
Red connector in ACID; Blue connector in Bicarbonate
Check the bicarbonate's labeling to assure it is the same 'Type' as the selected acid
Conductivity (alarm) Limits are set per unit policy
Proceed to part c.
ACETATE IS SELECTED i.e. [Bicarbonate] window = 0:
Identification ('ID') of the 'Currently Selected Acetate' matches what is connected to the
machine per its labeling. ONLY the red connector is attached to 35x (ACETATE) concentrate
The bicarbonate (blue) connector in its rinse port
'Type' = 35x
Value in the [Base Na+] (sodium) window is set as it would be for a typical patient treatment
Conductivity (alarm) Limits are set per policy
Proceed to part c.
c) Are ALL selections/settings correct?
Yes See procedure number
No a) Perform appropriate selections/settings.
b) Press the 'CONFIRM' key.
c) Allow eight minutes. If Conductivity is still a problem see procedure number
