Zeroing
 Perform the zeroing process once a day or when prompted to zero.
The zeroing operation is performed in ambient air with a clean Dräger mainstream CO
2 sensor that is
removed from the cuvette.
1 Remove the Dräger mainstream CO
2 sensor from the cuvette.
2 Select CO2 Zero under the etCO2 parameter menu. The monitor performs the zeroing operation and
displays a message that the CO
2 zeroing is in progress. Waveforms flatline and parameter box values
disappear from the screen during this cycle.
3 Fit the Dräger mainstream CO
2 sensor onto the cuvette.
If zero was successful, the monitor displays the message CO2 Zero Accepted after approximately
30 seconds. If zero was unsuccessful, the monitor displays the message CO2 Zero Failed. Repeat the
zeroing operation. If the zero remains unsuccessful, check whether the sensor is contaminated, clean it if
necessary, and re-zero. If the zero remains unsuccessful, the sensor may be defective and require
replacement.

2 in lungs ceases to increase

2 is measured)
