WARNING
Do not use the CO
2
sensor if it appears to have been damaged or if it fails to
operate normally. Contact the Customer Service Department.
To reduce the risk of explosion, do not place the CO
2
sensor in a combustible or
explosive environment.
Inspect the CO
2
airway adapter periodically for excess moisture and secretion
accumulation.
Avoid permanent direct contact of the CO
2
sensor with the body.
CAUTION
To prevent premature failure of the CO
2
sensor, CO
2
monitoring function is
switched off from the moment of activating nebulization to one minute after the
end of nebulization. The medication may contaminate the airway adapter window
due to its viscosity. It is suggested to remove the CO
2
sensor and airway adapter
from the pneumatic circuit.
NOTE
Always position the sensor above the adapter in an upright position to avoid
collection of fluids on the windows of the adapter. Large concentrations of fluids at
this point will obstruct gas analysis.
It takes approximately 2.5 minutes from powering on the CO
2
measurement to
reaching the mainstream CO
2
monitoring performance specified in section B.10 of
this manual.
The mainstream CO
2
measurement can be used, with specified accessories, on
intubated and non-intubated, adult and pediatric patients.
