Instructions for Use Apollo SW 4.5n 107
Part Number: 9053586, 3rd edition
Emergency start
Figure 50. Apollo Front Panel
The emergency start procedure shortens the self test
when the Apollo must be operational immediately.
Note: To prevent abuse of this feature, the
emergency start procedure can be
performed up to ten times in succession.
After ten cancellations, the system will not
allow another cancellation and a complete
self test must be performed.
1. Power on the anesthesia machine by pressing
the main power switch on the front of the
machine (1 in Figure 50).
2. Check that all vaporizers are closed.
3. Set an appropriate fresh-gas flow using the
oxygen flow control knob (2 in Figure 50). Verify
adequate flow by checking the total flow meter
(3 in Figure 50).
4. Start manual ventilation.
5. Continue manual ventilation while the software is
internally loaded and the electronics are tested.
After about 35 seconds, the Check List screen
appears.
Figure 51. Check List Screen6. Press the >Cancel Test< key on the Check List
screen (1 in Figure 51).
The machine runs through a minimal self test
that lasts about 10 seconds. Manual ventilation is
interrupted during this time, but spontaneous
breathing can continue.
WARNING!
Risk of incorrect delivery
The leak and compliance tests are not
performed if the self test is cancelled, and no
leak and compliance information is available.
The accuracy levels specified in the chapter
“Specifications” cannot be guaranteed.
