Service and testing
• To ensure proper servicing and to prevent possible physical
injury, only qualified personnel should attempt to service
the ventilator.
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not remove the
ventilator housing. Refer the ventilator for servicing by qual-
ified personnel.
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, disconnect electrical
power from the ventilator before servicing. Be aware that
battery power remains even after the mains is discon-
nected. Be aware that if the power switch is off, some parts
still carry high voltage.
• Do not attempt service procedures other than those speci-
fied in the service manual.
• Use replacement parts supplied by HAMILTON MEDICAL
only.
• Any attempt to modify the ventilator hardware or software
without the express written approval of HAMILTON
MEDICAL automatically voids all warranties and liabilities.
• The preventive maintenance program requires a general
service every 5000 hours or yearly, whichever comes first.
• To ensure the ventilator’s safe operation, always run the
tests and calibrations prescribed in Chapter 4, Tests, calibra-
tions, and utilities, before using the ventilator on a patient.
If the ventilator fails any tests, remove it from clinical use
immediately. Do not use the ventilator until necessary
repairs are completed and all tests have passed.
