Page 6 of 75
Placing materials with high insulation properties (pillows, etc.) between the heated pad and the
patient may reduce therapy to the patient.
Complete folding of pad may restrict flow and reduce therapy to patient.
Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a licensed healthcare professional.
(US)
Always drain the MICRO-TEMP
®
LT to a sanitary drain because bio-contaminants may be
present in the unit’s water supply.
Do NOT fill the reservoir to the bottom of the strainer if there is water in the pad. This could cause
an overflow when the unit is turned on.
Do not operate pump without a pad connected or with pad clamps in the “CLOSED” position.
Always check clamps to make sure they are fully open.
The pad surface should be checked for freedom from mechanical damage prior to each
application.
Make sure hose and pads are free of kinks that might restrict flow.
Check hose couplings to be certain they are properly locked together.
Follow pad instructions and Hospital/Physician instructions for applying, storing, and disposal of
product.
Do not use alcohol. Alcohol may cause pad and unit deterioration.
Use distilled water only. Do Not Use De-Ionized water or tap water. Failure to use distilled
water may result in poor performance and damage to the MICRO-TEMP
®
LT.
For safe handling and use of chemicals, follow manufacturer guidelines. Users should not use
cleaning or decontamination methods different from those recommended by CSZ without first
checking with CSZ that the proposed methods will not damage the equipment.
The display may blank momentarily during an electrostatic discharge (ESD) event, but the
essential performance of the unit is not affected and no harm will occur to the patient. If an
electrostatic discharge (ESD) event occurs, check to see if unit is operating properly. If unit does
not return to previous operation, turn unit off then back on and reset temperature settings as
prescribed.
If a means is needed in retaining a patient either on or under a CSZ Hyper-
Hypothermia Blanket or the Connecting Hose, the means should not block the fluid
pathways of the MICRO-TEMP
®
LT unit.
No modification of this equipment is allowed without prior, written authorization from CSZ.
