Removing the microbial filter (optional)
On the sleeve of the nozzle:
1. Pull the filter off the nozzle.
2. Prepare the microbial filter for conditioning
according to the corresponding Instructions for
Use.
CAUTION!
Risk of component damage and patient injury
If mishandled, the spiral ribbing on the breathing
hoses can become detached from the sleeve.
Breathing hoses with damaged spiral ribbing can
easily be kinked and interrupt the flow of gas!
When attaching or removing the breathing hoses,
always hold them by the connection sleeve and not
by the spiral ribbing! Always check the breathing
hoses for damage prior to use. Damaged breathing
hoses must be replaced.
