Place the high flow insufflation unit on a stable, level surface.
Otherwise, the high flow insufflation unit may topple down or
drop, and user or patient injury may occur, or equipment
damage can result.
•
If the high flow insufflation unit is to be placed on a trolley, the
trolley must be of adequate strength and size to safely hold it.
•
Position the patient port of the insufflator and as much of the
associated tubing as is practical above the insufflation site, to
prevent patient fluids from inadvertently entering the tubing.
Placing the tubing below the insufflation site may cause
patient fluid to drain into the insufflator due to gravity.
Place the instruction manual near the UHI-4 or in another
easily accessible location.

Make sure that operation of the insufflator will take place in accordance with
the precautions described in "Dangers, warnings, and cautions" on page 10.
