Sure".
1. Connect the corresponding tube set ("Heated with Real-Time Pressure Sens-
ing" or "High Flow with Real-Time Pressure Sensing").
2. Insufflation is initially always started intermittently. Availability of the "Real-
Time Pressure Sensing" functionality is checked automatically. If this is the
case, the device switches to a continuous mode. This is indicated by the cor-
responding symbol on the display.
6.5.1
Filling Tube System with CO2
At least 1 l of CO2 has to be let out from the system before every surgery while
the tube is connected and the end of the tube is open. This will expel any air with-
in the tube system and the device.
1. Start insufflation: Press the START function field.
Wait until the gas consumption display shows 1.0 Liter.
2. Stop insufflation: Press the STOP function field.
3. Press the gas consumption display field to reset the gas consumption display
to 0.0 Liter. This ensures the gas consumption is correctly displayed during
surgery.
The function test is complete. The device is tested and ready to be used for sur-
gery.
WARNING!
Do not use this device if a defect is suspected or detected during the function
check. This also applies to obvious defects, especially defects on the power plug
and power cable.

Using the Device during Surgery
WARNING!
The function test must be performed prior to each surgery.
CAUTION!
The venting system is automatically triggered (not during Veress mode and not
if the venting valve has been deactivated in the Configuration menu) if the mea-
sured actual pressure exceeds the set nominal pressure during insufflation. The
device interrupts insufflation and releases gas until the actual pressure has
dropped below the set nominal value.
1. The device is turned on.
2. An insufflation tube set is connected.
6.6.1
Insufflating with Veress Cannula
On delivery from the factory, following values are set for High Flow operating
mode:
• a gas flow value of 3 l/min and
• Veress insufflation for insufflation through the Veress cannula.
CAUTION!
Up to 5 l/min Veress insufflation is set automatically. Please note that the auto-
matic venting system is not active during Veress insufflation operating mode
(the venting valve is switched off automatically). The gas transport through the
