1. Remove your training model from its shipping container and make sure that you have
received all of the items listed in Chapter 3: Product Information—Included in this Package
section on page 5 of this User Guide. If you did not receive one of the listed items, or if you
received the wrong items, please contact Blue Phantom™ Customer Support immediately:

2. Familiarize yourself with your training model.
Blue Phantom™ ultrasound training models are constructed using our patented
simulated ultrasound tissue and mimics the imaging characteristics to that of
human tissue. Care must be taken to not place the model on rough surfaces as the
model can take on the characteristics of that surface. Do not place objects
under the model as the tissue is soft and will conform to the shape of the object.
Your training model comes pre-filled with Blue Phantom™ Red Ultrasound Refill
Solution (BRS180-Red) and Blue Phantom™ Blue Ultrasound Refill Fluid
(BRS181-Blue)
.
If you suspect that your model is low on fluid, please refer to Chapter 4: Utilizing Your
Training Model—Maintaining Optimal Fluid Levels section on page 10 of this User
Guide.
