Figure 6. Content Spacing
For eciency, bagged solutions should be placed on
shelves, stacking uid bags increases the heating
time required to achieve set temperature.
Blankets must be folded and stacked to allow a one
inch minimum space from the sides, back and top of
the compartment or shelf above. Stacked blankets
are not to protrude past the front edge of the shelf.
In case of power failure the unit will resume normal
operation when power is restored. Follow the uid
manufacturer’s guidelines for unused solutions that
have cooled or been removed from heated storage.
CAUTION
Injury and Burn Hazard: Use personal
protective equipment when unloading
Warming Cabinet. Internal surfaces are
hot, glass may shatter when cooled
suddenly and solution bags or bottles
may burst when picked up.
Rotate warmed contents on a rst-in rst-out basis,
failure to do so may cause cold or discolored contents.
WARNING
Injury or Burn Hazard: DO NOT use
liquids on or inject in living tissue unless
actual temperature has been measured
as acceptable. The temperature of the
warming cabinet content may be hotter
than displayed. For patient safety, in
accordance with optimal practice, always
verify liquid temperature prior to using.
