(continuous beeps and flashing
ALERT light)
The syringe is empty. Pressing any key silences the audio
portion of the alarm. Release and
slide the plunger driver back at least
1.6 inches (4 cm) to reset the alarm.
Note: due to variability in syringe
dimensions, a LINE OCCLUDED
alarm may occur before the EMPTY
alarm. Option: The infusion may be
restarted without resetting EMPTY
condition. The pump will continue to
display EMPTY and ALERT light will
continue flashing. The infusion will
continue until STOP is pressed or a
LINE OCCLUDED alarm occurs.
FINISH EDITING

ALERT light)

edited while an infusion is in

Pressing any key silences the audio
portion of the alarm. Complete the
editing operation.

(continuous beeps and flashing
ALERT light)
There is an occlusion, line
constriction, or other condition that
causes excess plunger force.

for empty syringe, kinked tubing,
clogged catheter, etc. Check for
foreign material preventing
movement of the pump mechanism.

driver is not released, an
