by the priming detector, the blood pump will stop automatically.

3. Clamp the infusion lines.
4. Clamp arterial and venous blood lines. Disconnect the arterial blood
line from the recirculation connector.

catheter). Make sure the connection is tight and that there is no
leakage.
6. Check that there is no air in the venous blood line.
