5.1 Pre-use Checklist
A pre-use checklist for the Prima SP2 range of
machines is printed on the next page.
This checklist is also supplied with the
machine.
Where necessary, subsequent sections in this
manual provide an explanation and procedure
for setting up the machine and ancillary
equipment and the various checks that must
be carried out before clinical use.
WARNING
Pre-use checks must be performed before each
period of clinical use.
These checks must be supplemented by
periodic Function Testing, and full Service
Testing by a Penlon-trained engineer to the
Service Schedule given in the Prima SP2
Service Manual.
Note that these checks will not in themselves
ensure the safe use of the apparatus, which
remains the responsibility of the qualified
practitioner in charge of it.
