Air Intake Microfilter
WARNING:
A dirty air intake microfilter may affect oxygen concentrations and/or
cause carbon dioxide build-up. Check the filter routinely, and change it
at least every 3 months or when it is visibly dirty. Failure to do so could
result in infant injury.
NOTE:
If the incubator is used in an unusually dusty environment, more
frequent replacement of the microfilter may be necessary.
Do not attempt to clean or reverse the microfilter. If the air intake
microfilter is visibly dirty or older than 3 months, replace it (refer to
procedure 4.19 on page 4-51). Before installing a new filter, clean the
microfilter chamber and its cover with a cleanser/disinfectant.
Humidity Reservoir
To clean the humidity reservoir using an appropriate
cleanser/disinfectant, perform the following:
1. Place the humidity reservoir and its lid in an suitable container filled
with an appropriate cleanser/disinfectant.
2. Allow the humidity reservoir and its lid to soak as recommended by
the cleaning solution’s manufacturer.
3. Remove the humidity reservoir and its lid from the
cleanser/disinfectant, and rinse them with sterile water.
4. Allow the humidity reservoir and its lid to dry.
NOTE:
Sterilization of the humidity reservoir is generally not considered
necessary and may reduce the useful life of the humidity reservoir.
However, if desired, the humidity reservoir withstands steam under
pressure.
