If your monitor is connected to an Information Center, the date and time are automatically taken from

Changing the date or time will affect the storage of trends and events.
Checking Your Monitor Revision

information.
Getting Started
Once you understand the basic operation principles, you can get ready for monitoring. We also
recommend working through the CBT for self-training before using the monitor (not available in all
languages).
Inspecting the Monitor
WARNING
If the monitor is mechanically damaged, or if it is not working properly, do not use it for any
monitoring procedure on a patient. Contact your service personnel.
1 Before you start to make measurements, carry out the following checks on the monitor including
all connected MMSs, modules, or MMS extensions.
– Check for any mechanical damage.
– Check all the external cables, plug-ins and accessories.
2 Plug the power cord into the AC power source.
3 Check all the functions of the instrument that you need to monitor the patient, and ensure that the
instrument is in good working order.
Switching On
Press the power on/standby switch on the monitor for one second. The monitor performs a self test
and is then ready to use. If you see a message such as
CO₂ SENS.WARMUP wait until it disappears
before starting to monitor that measurement. Connected devices usually take their power from the
monitor. External devices such as gas monitors and those connected via VueLink/IntelliBridge have
their own power switches.
