5. Operation
Start Up Connect the pump to the mains power supply using the
power cable provided. Turn the mains power switch to
the on (
I) position and it will illuminate green. The pump
performs a two-second self test cycle where the pressure
display, LEDs and alarm are tested. The pump then
proceeds directly to the inflation cycle.
The garments will inflate alternately. The first garment
inflates for approximately 12 seconds and is deflated for
approximately 48 seconds.
The second garment, if used, inflates 30 seconds after the
first garment has deflated and follows the same inflation/
deflation cycle.
If a single garment is attached, press the
Single Leg
button to prevent the alarm system from indicating a
fault. The system responds with a ‘beep’ and the yellow
LED on the Front Panel illuminates.
Verify that the pressure display is indicating the desired
output pressure prescribed by the physician. Refer to
section “Pressure Adjustment” on page 8 for specific
pressure setting instructions.
Shut Down Turn the power switch to the off (
O) position. Turning the
power off will stop the patient therapy.
Disconnect and remove the garment(s) as required.
NOTE
If the Single Leg button is pressed while two
garments are connected, the system will automatically
reset to two-garment operation after two single-garment
inflation cycles.
NOTE
If the operation or performance of the pump changes
during use, refer to “Troubleshooting - Alarm Condition”
on page 11 of this IFU before calling a service engineer or
contacting your local Arjo sales office.
NOTE
Loss of mains power will halt therapy.
NOTE
If it is required to completely isolate the pump from the
mains power, remove the plug from the mains power
socket.
NOTE
Garments are for single patient use only. Do not use the
garments on a different patient after treatment.
