15.10. Exhaust Emission
WARNING:
 When using the sidestream/microflow CO2 measurement on patients who are
receiving or have recently received anesthetics, connect the outlet to a scavenging
system, or to the anesthesia machine/ventilator, to avoid exposing medical staff to
anesthetics.
Use an exhaust tube to remove the sample gas to a scavenging system. Attach it to the

15.11. Announcements
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 CO2 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 CO2 waveform is too high. Sensor or patient
problems will cause the baseline to be too high.
 Regularly check CO2 sensor and pipeline for excessive moisture or secretion
accumulation.
 Do not operate the CO2 module when it is wet or has exterior condensation.
 Do not use microflow CO2 sensors for patients who cannot tolerate the
