PROCEDURE 1. PERFORM INITIAL INSPECTION
When you receive the GlideScope Titanium system, Verathon recommends that an operator familiar with
the instrument perform a full visual inspection of the system for any obvious physical damage that may have
occurred during shipment.
Note: Due to the hand-polishing method used to create the titanium exterior of the reusable blades, slight
variations or irregularities may occur in the finish. These variations do not affect the cleaning process or
system efficacy.
1. Verify that you have received the appropriate components for your system by referring to the packing list
included with the system.
2. Inspect the components for damage.
3. If any of the components are missing or damaged, notify the carrier and Verathon Customer Care or your
local representative:
