1. The device is switched off, no tube set is connected.
2. Make sure the gas supply is connected and open.
3. Use the ON/OFF switch (1) to turn the device on. The device conducts a de-
vice check.
4. Select Pediatric operating mode in the insufflation mode selection.
5. Connect an original insufflation tube set (6) to the device.
6. Attach the insufflation tube to the Veress cannula (8).
7. Attach the stopcock (valve) (7) to the Veress cannula.
8. If the gas consumption display function field does depict a value, press the
(4) function field to reset the display to 0.
9. Select the nominal pressure 8 mm Hg (2) and the gas flow 2 l/min (5).
10. Start insufflation: Press the START function field (3).
11. Insufflate for approx. 30 s. The display status line depicts Occlusion after max.
4 seconds.
12. Stop insufflation: Press the STOP function field (3).
WARNING!
If the actual gas consumption is higher than 0.4 l, there is a leak in the system. If
this happens, use steps 13 to 15 outlined below to locate the leak.
13. Repeat items 7 to 11 without Veress cannula and with closed tube end. The
previously connected Veress cannula has a leak if gas consumption is now be-
low 0.4 l.
14. Repeat items 8 to 12 without Veress cannula and without tube if another leak
becomes apparent. Close the end of the insufflation tube connection for this
test. If the gas consumption is then below 0.4 l, the previously used tube set
has a leak.
15. If another leak is detected, this leak is then directly within the device. Make
sure the device can no longer be operated until a qualified service technician
conducts the appropriate tests and repairs.
WARNING!
Never work with a leaky insufflation tube, accessory, and/or device. This can
lead to an incorrect measurement of the actual pressure values, which can cause
an uncontrolled pressure increase in the abdomen.
