4. 5.
Turn the System switch to On. The display shows the power-up screen. The system does a series of automated self tests. Perform a Full Test before the first case of the day. Perform a preoperative checkout before each case. Note The system must perform a power-up self test after 12 hours of remaining on. If the system has been on longer than 12 hours without a power-up self test, the ‘Turn power Off and On for self tests’ alarm occurs. Turn the power off and then back on between cases to resolve the alarm. --

Set the Bag/Vent switch to Bag. Select End Case. Select End Case Now on the menu. (The gas flow and patient alarms stop). The system is now in Standby. Select a quick key or the Start Case button to start anesthesia delivery or monitoring only.
Ventilator setup WARNING Most anesthetic agents will cause patients to have reduced ventilatory responses to carbon dioxide and to hypoxemia. Therefore, triggered modes of ventilation may not produce adequate ventilation. The use of neuromuscular blocking agents will reduce the patient’s breathing response, which will interfere with triggering. Changing ventilator mode 1. Select the Mode quick key. The Vent Mode menu shows. 2. Select the desired ventilation mode. 3. Set and confirm the primary ventilation setting to activate the ventilation mode. Controls that are frequently used in the ventilation mode can be adjusted with the ventilator quick keys and the More Settings quick key.
