(Pump’s status bar will read

Low The programmed delivery limit has been reached, and the

alarm occurs when the continuous rate is programmed to
greater than 0 mL/hr, and either a PCA dose or the continuous
rate has caused the delivery limit to be exceeded. Select
acknowledge to clear the alarm or the alarm will automatically
clear after 5 seconds.

Delivery too slow. 1 mL of uid
not delivered.
Medium The pump is busy with too many activities and does not have
sufficient resources to support the programmed delivery rate.
The delivery has fallen behind by 1 mL. Select acknowledge
to clear the alarm. If this alarm occurs regularly, the pump
may be faulty. Remove the pump from use and contact Smiths
Medical Customer Service.
Depleted battery is charging. Low The rechargeable battery pack is depleted and is being
recharged with the AC adapter. Select acknowledge to clear the
alarm or the alarm will automatically clear after 5 seconds.
Downstream occlusion. Clear
occlusion between pump and
patient.
High The pump has detected high pressure, which may be resulting
from a downstream blockage, kink in the fluid path, or a
closed tubing clamp. Delivery is paused and will resume if
the occlusion is removed. Remove the obstruction to resume
operation. Or select Stop Pump to stop the pump and silence
the alarm for 2 minutes, then remove the obstruction and
restart the pump.
NOTE: To reduce the potential bolus delivery after an
occlusion, perform the following:
1. Select Stop Pump to stop the pump.
2. Close the distal clamp. If the distal clamp is the cause of
obstruction, keep it closed and continue with step 4.
3. Remove the obstruction.
4. Detach the medication cassette reservoir or CADD®
administration set from the pump.
5. Open the ow stop feature, if present.
6. Wait 10 seconds.
7. Close the ow stop feature, if present.
8. Reattach the medication cassette reservoir or CADD®
administration set to the pump.
