Sterilization
Caution! Do not sterilize the ICS 3000!
• If you are conducting pacemaker programming under
sterile conditions, operate the programming head
with a sterile cover (see „Optional Accessories“ on
page 40).
Maintenance
The ICS 3000 requires no maintenance. The following
inspections must be carried out:
Inspection A Before each use, check the following:
• Visually examine the ICS 3000 and the programming
head.
• Check the housing and cables for mechanical damage.
• Check the system time and date and adjust if
necessary.
• Check if a replacement pen is available? (If not, order
one.)
• Check accessories, particularly the patient cables.
Inspection B As part of the safety checks every year and if
malfunctions are suspected:
• First, conduct Inspection A.
• Check all mechanical and electrical functions
according to the BIOTRONIK test specification.
• Check the accessories, particularly PK-222 and
PK-199, and send them with the unit to the
manufacturer if necessary.
Note: The devices used for the electrical function test are
usually not readily available in hospitals. Therefore, it
is recommended that the ICS 3000 be checked by
BIOTRONIK or by a test center authorized by
BIOTRONIK.
• Contact BIOTRONIK with any problems you may have:
describe the problem, have program printouts or
ECGs available, note error messages.
