medical assistants with the appropriate technical/medical qualifications working

Automatic device self-test
The device self-test must be performed prior to each surgery. Because the device
self-test is performed during initial start up, the unit must be power cycled (off/on)
prior to each surgery.
WARNING!
Sterile media and accessories
Always work exclusively with sterile substances and media, sterile fluids, and
sterile accessories if so indicated.
WARNING!
Replacement device and accessories
In case the device or any of the accessories fail during surgery, a replacement
device and replacement accessories should be kept within close proximity to be
able to finish the operation with the replacement components.
CAUTION!
Cleaning the Device
Do not sterilize the device.
WARNING!
Obvious defects
Never use the device if it has suspected or confirmed defects, especially if these in-
volve the power plugs or the mains power supply connection cables. In this case
have the device repaired by authorized service personnel.
WARNING!
Positioning the patient
Positioning the patient lower than the device can prevent body fluids from leaking
into the tube set. Actual pressure may increase and fluid may penetrate the insuf-
flation tube if the patient is repositioned during surgery. If this occurs, immediately
disconnect the insufflation tube. When the patient is repositioned onto his or her
side, internal tissue may block the insufflation channel. Always insufflate through
the elevated side of the patient.
