General Safety Considerations
The Starling Monitor is designed and manufactured to ensure maximum safety of operation.
The system should be used in accordance with Baxter recommended guidelines and in strict
compliance with the safety precautions, warnings, and operating instructions contained in
this User Guide.
Safety Checks Before Using the System
 Inspect the external cables (AC power cable and Starling Patient Cable) for signs of wear
or visible physical damage.
 Make sure the Starling Monitor is suitably positioned with adequate clearance around
it to provide easy access (see Positioning the Starling Monitor on page 4-2).
 If using the Roll Stand (optional accessory), check that it is standing on a level surface
and that the castor wheels are locked to prevent movement of the Starling Monitor
during the monitoring procedure.
 If using the Starling Monitor on an IV pole, check that the Starling IV Pole Mount
Connector (optional accessory) is firmly secured to the rear of the Monitor and that the
Connector is properly fastened onto the IV pole.
Important
Before using the Starling Monitor, operators should always perform the routine checks outlined below.
CAUTION
Do not use any system component or accessory if impaired functionality is suspected.
Do not replace/change/modify/alter any part of the Starling system components - other than the
fuses (as described in the Fuse Replacement Procedure on page 6-10).
