This chapter describes how to install the Philips M1026A Anesthetic Gas Module. It details the
operating environment required by the Philips M1026A Anesthetic Gas Module as well as instructions
on how to affix the local language labels and physically connect it to the monitor. Next, the patient

For procedures which are also used in other situations (for example calibration, preventative
maintenance, etc.), a reference to the description will be given.
