Manual 41018v0800 SIGMA Spectrum Infusion System
Revision B Operator’s Manual
Do not connect two or more AC Power Adaptors side by side
(narrow side touching) on a power strip.
CAUTION Entanglement.
Always route IV set tubing and AC Power Adaptor cabling to prevent
patient hazard or entanglement. Use the supplied strap to secure
excess power cord length. Identify the individual IV set lines when
multiple Pumps and routes of administration are practiced.
CAUTION Maintain Battery Charge.
To maintain battery charge, keep the Pump’s AC Power Adaptor
plugged into a powered outlet whenever possible, including when the
Pump is not in use.
CAUTION Avoid Bright Natural Sunlight or Artificial Overhead Light.
Bright Light (equivalent to greater than or equal to 100 watt
incandescent bulb) within 30.5 cm (1 ft) above the Pump’s keyhole
(load point #1) may affect the Pump’s ability to recognize the blue
slide clamp during set loading. To prevent alarms or continuous
system errors:
Increase the distance between the Pump and the light source.
Move the Pump to an adjacent location.
CAUTION Avoid Overheating.
When operating the Pump, keep out of bright sunlight or direct heat
sources to prevent overheating.
CAUTION Static Sensitive Equipment.
Wherever possible, eliminate any electro-static producing
materials or conditions (dry, low humidity, synthetic materials such
as blankets, carpeting, drapes, and so forth).
The Pump is ESD sensitive when the Battery Module is removed.
CAUTION Oxygen Enriched Environment.
This equipment is not suitable for use in the presence of a Flammable
Anesthetic Mixture with Air or with Oxygen or Nitrous Oxide.
