could result in death or serious injury.
Explosion or Fire Hazard: DO NOT use
Warming Cabinet in the presence of
flammable anesthetics or solvents.
Loading any item that could introduce
flammable agents into the cabinet
atmosphere can cause a re or explosion.
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.
The USB port should only be used for
downloading temperature history data.
DO NOT connect USB wireless devices
due to potential EMI conditions.
SECTION 1. SAFETY INFORMATION
Explosion Hazard: DO NOT exceed 150°
F (66 °C) for non-vented closures; screw
caps, crimp seals, plastic pouches, etc.
DO NOT exceed pre-sterile solution
manufacturer’s temperature requirements.
Injury and Burn Hazard: Disconnect the
AC power cord and allow the warmer
to cool before performing preventative
maintenance.
CAUTION
Indicates a hazardous situation that, if not avoided,
could result in minor or moderate injury.
Explosion or Fire Hazard: The Warming
Cabinet is intended for warming
non-ammable solutions and blankets
made of Muslin, 100% cotton or wool,
ONLY. Operating the Warming Cabinet
with ammable items could result in
explosion or re.
Burn Hazard: Use personal protective
equipment when loading contents into
cabinet. Avoid contact with hot surfaces
that may cause burns.
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.
Burn Hazard: DO NOT raise the setpoint
to increase heating rate. On dual chamber
models, do not exceed 30° F (16.7 °C)
higher than an upper chamber. Example:
Upper chamber 110° F (43 °C) lower
chamber must not exceed 140° F (60 °C).
This could overheat contents leading to
possible patient burns.
The temperature limit, as recommended
by ECRI, for warming solutions is 110° F
(43 °C). Solutions warmed above 111° F
(44 °C) can cause second degree burns.
Recommended ECRI temperature limit for
blankets is 130° F (54 °C). Even slightly
higher temperatures have been associated
with patient burns.
