The user should check that the current alarm preset is appropriate prior to use on each patient.
A hazard can exist if different alarm presets are used for the same or similar equipment in a
single area, such as an intensive care unit or a cardiac operating theatre.
Setting the audio volume to the lowest level will lower all system alarms, including secondary
alarms such as end of infusion.
