Chapter 6. Operation
WARNING: To ensure the ventilator’s safe operation, always verify ventilator
operation as described in “Verify ventilator operation” on page 5-8 before
using the ventilator on a patient. If the ventilator fails any tests, remove it
from clinical use immediately. Do not use the ventilator until necessary
repairs are completed and all tests have passed.
NOTE: Before operation, prepare the ventilator as instructed in Chapter 5.
NOTE: Any mode and settings can be used for closed suctioning.
After power-on, the ventilator starts up in the mode and with the settings that
were active before last power down. Check these settings and adjust as
required. You must be familiar with using the touchscreen and navigation ring
(legacy versions) to select, adjust, activate, and confirm parameters. For
details, see “Before placing a patient on the ventilator” on page 5-8.
Access the ventilator setting windows from the tabs at the bottom of the
screen.
