Operating Instructions Caleo, Software 2.n
Precautions During Infant Care
Weighing scale
Only use the built-in infant scale to determine patient weight.
Failure to observe Instructions for Use of the scale (see
page 112) may cause considerable measuring errors when
determining patient weight. Consequently, to make sure that
critical therapeutic decisions are based on correct patient
weight, the weight indicated by the integrated scale must be
checked against a reference measurement performed on an
external scale.
In-house transport
High noise levels
Excessive noise levels that can disturb the patient may be
caused by:
– using O
2 head boxes and delivering pressurized gases,
– wear on the bearings of the fan motor,
– placing objects on the canopy.
z Observe the specified maintenance intervals – see
page 136.
Cleaning mode
Electrical safety
CAUTION !
Use caution when moving the incubator over uneven
surfaces, e.g. rough pavement outside the hospital or into an
elevator, as castors may become damaged or dislodged.
WARNING !
Cleaning mode may only be used while Caleo is not
occupied by a patient.
After use, allow Caleo to cool down before dismantling.
Risk of burns when touching the heater!
During or after cleaning mode, condensation could form
under the aggregate housing of the Caleo!
WARNING !
Caleo is to be used only in rooms with line power
installations that comply with national safety standards
for hospital patient rooms (e.g., IEC/EN 60601-1 "Medical
Electrical Equipment - General Requirements For
Safety").
To maintain grounding integrity, connect only to a
"hospital grade" receptacle.
Always disconnect supply before servicing.
WARNING !
Do not use a power outlet strip for supplying power to
the Caleo incubator!
Connecting the incubator via a power outlet strip may, in
case of failure of the protective earth conductor, cause
patient leakage currents to rise above permitted limits
with a risk of electric shock to the patient.
WARNING !
Only use auxiliary electromedical equipment which
complies with national safety standards for hospital
patient rooms (e.g., IEC/EN 60601-1 "Medical Electrical
Equipment - General Requirements For Safety", UL 544).
When using the integrated power strip to connect
auxiliary devices, always observe total leakage current
and current consumption limits!
(See "Technical Data", page 166.)
WARNING!
Connect external devices to the interfaces only while
Caleo is properly grounded via its power cable and a
grounded wall outlet or via the grounding pin on the rear
panel of the control unit.
Otherwise, the risk of electric shock cannot be safely
excluded.
WARNING !
The output of the integrated power strip is not
monitored!
Do not connect life support devices which do not have
their own power failure alarm.
