outlet connector of sensor.

WARNING:
Do not position the sensor cables or tubing in any manner that may cause
entanglement or strangulation.
Reuse, disassembly, cleaning, disinfecting or sterilizing the single patient use
cannula kits and on-airway adapters may compromise functionality and system
performance leading to a user or patient hazard. Performance is not guaranteed
if an item labeled as single patient use is reused.
Before using, please check whether the airway adapter is damaged. Do not use if
damage is found.
If excessive secretions are found on the airway adapter, replace them
immediately.
When monitoring CO
2
waveform, if changes or abnormal phenomena are found,
please check the airway adapter or sampling tube. If necessary, please replace it
immediately.
Note whether the baseline of CO
2
waveform is too high. Sensor or patient
problems will cause the baseline to be too high.
Regularly check CO
2
sensor and pipeline for excessive moisture or secretion
accumulation.
Do not operate the CO
2
module when it is wet or has exterior condensation.
Do not use microflow CO
2
sensors for patients who cannot tolerate the
withdrawal of 50 mL/min±10 mL/min from the airway or patients that cannot
tolerate the added dead space to the airway.
Do not connect the exhaust tube of sidestream/microflow CO
2
module to the
ventilator circuit.
CAUTION:
Use only accessories provided by manufacturer.
