• The nominal flow can be increased or decreased during insufflation or while in-
sufflation is stopped.
• With every touch of the flow function field º or » the nominal flow is in-
creased/reduced in steps of 1 l/min. When working within the range of 0.1 to
1 l/min in Pediatric mode, the value is increased/reduced 0.1 l/min. When
pressing the flow function field º or » longer than 1.5 seconds, scrolling is ac-
tivated but only up to the respective, application-dependent safety threshold.
Once this limit has been reached, the status line depicts the message Safety
limit and the actual value flashes. To allow settings above the safety threshold
release the function field for 2 seconds. The display switches back to the status
display. Now it is possible to increase the flow above the safety threshold but
only to the next safety threshold (as far as existent) or to the maximum setting.
• The latest working settings are stored with interruption of the insufflation, but
only if the last value was below the lowest safety threshold (5 l/min for Pedi-
atric operating mode and 6 l/min for Vessel Harvest operating mode). Other-
wise the set flow value is reset to the lowest safety threshold upon
deactivation of insufflation.
• The latest settings are reset to the values preselected in the Configuration
menu when deactivating the device or when changing into the Configuration
menu or the Mode Selection menu. Upon choice of the respective working
mode the nominal settings as stored in the Configuration menu are displayed
(see chapter 10 Configuration Menu (Overview), page 58).
• The flow safety thresholds can be deactivated in the Configuration menu.

The gas consumption display depicts the insufflated volume of the gas in liters
since the last "resetting" of the display. The display indicates values between 0.0
liter and 9.9 liter in increments of 0.1 and between 10 liter to 999 liter in incre-
ments of 1.
The gas consumption display can be reset to 0.0 while insufflation is started as
well as stopped. Press the gas consumption display/function field to reset the gas
consumption display.

The status line depicts Insufflation and the name of the selected insufflation
mode (e.g. Insufflation: High Flow or Veress insufflation).
The frames around the insufflation mode display and the actual gas flow (menu
access) are hidden. This signals that these function fields are inactive during this
state.
