Warnings and Cautions
34 Ventlatng neonates (nfants)
a) Use only Pressure ontrol Ventlaton or Volume
ontrol ventlaton for mandatory ventlaton of
neonates
b) Always set a low target pressure frst and then
ncrease to the requred level
c) Use breathng crcuts and flters specfcally desgned
for paedatrc/neonatal use
d) Do not ventlate pre-term babes wth brth weghts
below 24 kg
35 Patent montorng
a) Always use an anaesthetc agent montor that
comples wth the latest relevant standard
b) Always montor oxygen concentratons
c) Always check that the montors are functonng
correctly before startng the clncal procedure
d) An external anaesthetc gas montorng devce,
complyng wth ISO/IE 80601-2-55 must be
connected to the breathng crcut Use the
manufacturer’s nstructons to correctly connect the
devce
36 When connectng other equpment to the auxlary sockets a
medcal electrcal system s created and the whole system
should be re-evaluated to the requrements of BS EN
60601-1
37 as analyser (NO, O, O) measurements are ntended
only to assst n patent assessment These devces must
be used n conuncton wth other patent physologcal
ndcatons and n the assessment of the overall patent
condton
38 When any accessory s nstalled on the shelf or attached
to an arm mount, you must check the stablty of the
anaesthetc machne before use
39 When the machne s n operaton, the alarm message
feld must be vsble to the operator at all tmes

ftted) heck the water trap for damage (cracks, etc) and
replace f damaged
To mantan adequate levels of hygene, the water trap must
be replaced every four weeks
