CAUTION
Before connecting the equipment to the power line, check that the voltage and
frequency ratings of the power line are the same as those indicated on the
equipment’s label or specified in this manual.
Always install or carry the equipment properly to avoid damage caused by
dropping down, impact, strong vibration or other mechanical force.
Check whether the patient tubing is damaged or leaked repeatedly before usage. If
so, don’t use such tubing.
To electrically isolate the ventilator circuits from all poles of the supply mains
simultaneously, disconnect the mains plug.
To minimize the risk of fire, do not use low-pressure gas tubes that are worn or
contaminated with combustible materials like grease or oil.
It is the clinician’s responsibility to ensure that all ventilator settings are
appropriate.
To prevent possible patient injury, ensure the ventilator is set up for appropriate
patient type with the appropriate patient tubing. Ensure the System Check is
performed before each patient.
Perform Flow Sensor Calibration before the first use, or when the measured values
have deviations.
To prevent possible patient injury, ensure the ventilation parameters are set up
properly before ventilating the patient.
To ensure the accuracy of oxygen monitoring, replace an exhausted oxygen cell as
soon as possible or use an external monitor that complies with ISO 80601-2-55.
A fan failure could result in oxygen enrichment inside the ventilator and a
subsequent fire hazard.
To reduce the risk of explosion, do not burn the O
2
cell or force the cell open.
When ventilating with a mask, avoid high airway pressures. High pressures may
cause gastric distension.
Peak pressures, exceeding 33 cmH
2
O, may increase the risk of aspiration due to
gastric insufflation. When ventilating with such pressures, consider using an
invasive mode.
To reduce the risk of fire, use only tube systems approved for medical purposes
and for use with oxygen between the oxygen source and ventilator.
To reduce the risk of fire, ensure adequate ventilation at the rear of the ventilator.
To reduce the risk of fire, switch off the oxygen source when the ventilator is not in
a ventilating mode.
Avoid putting the ventilator in the storage environment of more than 50℃ for a
long time. Such environment may damage or shorten the battery lives of internal
