Setup Completion
IMPORTANT! Before you insert the spike into the bottle, shake the irrigation drip
chamber at the end of the irrigation tubing to confirm that the irrigation valve
moves. If the valve does not rattle, the valve cannot operate properly and irrigation
cannot flow.
1. Place a new bottle of balanced salt solution on the top of the system console.
2. Insert the drip chamber spike into the balanced salt solution bottle.
3. Hang the balanced salt solution bottle from the Programmable IV Pole and
squeeze the drip chamber.
4. Fill the drip chamber with fluid to the half-full level. The Programmable IV
Pole moves to the appropriate height automatically.
5. Raise or lower the pole if needed. Use the IV pole Up and Down arrows on
upper right of the touch screen. You can also use the Up/Down switch on the
console.
