NOTE
z When the O
2
sensor is used for the first time or is to be replaced, test that O
2
concentration is accurately monitored. Calibrate the O
2
sensor if a great error is
detected.
z When [OFF] is selected for [O2 Sensor Monitoring], O2 sensor calibration is
disabled. If [O2 Module] is selected for [O2 Monitoring Source], the functions
related to O2 module can still be performed.
z When [ON] is selected for [O2 Sensor Monitoring] and [OFF] for [O2 Monitoring
Source], FiO2 is displayed as invalid value. In this case, O2 sensor calibration,
FiO2 alarm limit setting, and alarm related to FiO2 and O2 sensor are all disabled.
z As required by the relevant international rules and regulations, O
2
concentration
monitoring needs to be performed when the anesthesia machine is used on the
patient. If your anesthesia machine is not configured with such monitoring
function, use a qualified monitor for O2 concentration monitoring.

If your anesthesia machine is configured with O2 module or O2 sensor, the monitored FiO2
parameter is displayed.
If AG module is configured, FiO2 is displayed together with AA concentration
parameters. For details, refer to 5.3.2.1Display AG Parameters.
If CO2 module is configured, FiO2 is displayed together with CO2 parameters. For
details, refer to 5.3.3.1Display CO2 Parameters.
If no gas module is configured, FiO2 is displayed together with tidal volume, breath rate
etc. For details, refer to 5.3.5.1Display Tidal Volume and Breath Rate Parameters.
