The pump is now programmed!!
If you wish to review the parameters you have programmed into the pump, press the NEXT key repeatedly
to view all of the programming screens in the programming loop and make any changed if required.
16. Attach the appropriate disposable to the pump (cassette, bag spike or syringe attachment) using
the metal CADD key to lock the disposable in place. NOTE: the lock mechanism must be fully
disengaged by turning as far clockwise as possible towards the open white circle before a disposable
can be attached. Now attaché the disposable and lock the locking mechanism. NOTE: the tiny
white dot on the lock mechanism on the pump’s right side must be turned as far counterclockwise
as possible to properly lock and latch the disposable. If the disposable is not properly attached, the
pump will not allow you to start the infusion.

PRIME key until the line is fully purged.
o Press the NEXT key to get back to the main programming screen.
The pump is now ready to start infusion.
18. You will need to change the Lock Level from LL0 to either LL1 or LL2 before starting the pump and
leaving it with the patient. LL0 allows complete access to all programming and operating features
and should be for Clinician use only. LL1 Level permits limited programming and access, and LL2
permits only minimal access. Refer to the pump’s manual for a Lock Level table. It is suggested
that a facility come up with a protocol for setting Lock Levels.
o To change the lock level, follow the instructions above.
19. Attach the tubing to the patient and open all clamps.

23. To review the pump’s settings press the NEXT key repeatedly to advance through the programming
loop. NOTE: the words “Review Only” will be displayed at the bottom of each of the programming
screens because the pump is infusing and no changes to the pump’s programming parameters can
be made while the pump is running.
24. To stop the infusion:
o Press and hold down the STOP/START key.
o 3 sets of dashed lines will appear.
o Release the STOP/START key once the 3 sets of lines have appeared.
25. To administer a Clinician Bolus (Loading Dose):
o The pump must be running
o Press the LOCK key
o Enter the Clinician Bolus Code “997” by pressing the N arrow key three times to count

Once the clinician bolus (loading dose) has been infused, the pump will resume the infusion as
programmed.
NOTE: the Clinician Bolus function can be accessed as often as required without any restrictions on time
between doses or max doses per hour as with the patient demand doses, therefore it is essential that the
patients not be given access to the Clinician Bolus code.
