Product Use Warnings
Manikin, Tablet and Wireless Modules
• Make sure the manikin is set up on a stable, sturdy work surface that will not collapse and
cause injury to users.
• Operate the manikin in ambient temperatures below 104°F (40°C).
Note: This only applies when using the manikin without the tablet where CAEMaestro
software is installed. For information about temperature ranges for the tablet, see
Ambient Temperature Range in the Specifications section of this User Guide.
• Do not disassemble factory-assembled parts of the manikin without receiving instructions
from Customer Service.
• Clean the manikin with water and a light soap solution only. Do not use chemical solvents.
Do not immerse the manikin in liquid or use abundant liquid to wash the manikin. For
more information, see the Care and Maintenance section.
• Do not place foreign substances into the airway, with the exception of small amounts of
approved lubricant. Only perform invasive procedures supported by the Product as
described in the applicable sections of the User Guide.
• Do not insert any materials into the manikin except the equipment or probes supplied.
• Do not lift the manikin by its limbs. Support the head and lift it from the torso. If necessary,
have another person help you lift and move the manikin using a patient transfer device
such as a patient transfer board, when available.
• Keep the manikin plugged in between training sessions due to a slow drain of the battery
that occurs.
• Under normal circumstances, unplugging the external DC power used for powering and
charging the manikin is not necessary because the charging stops when the battery is full.
A topping charge is only applied when the battery voltage drops to a certain level.
• Do not spill fluids over the manikin’s chest, abdomen, or inside the manikin’s torso. This
could damage the system and may also present a possible hazard for the operator.
Special attention should be taken while using the the various fluid features.
• Do not use the manikin or equipment in locations where children are likely to be present.

caution.
