temperatures.

1. Connect the filter and the heating tube.
2. Connect the plug of the heater tube with the appropriate gas heating connec-
tion.
NOTE!
A mix-up cannot occur because of the different shapes of gas heater connections
for disposable or reusable heating tubes.
Once the heating tube has been connected, the status bar (3) displays Heater OK
message for 3 seconds.
The reusable gas heating tube is automatically preheated to 33°C if insufflation
is switched off.
Start gas heating: Press the Start/Stop key. The gas is automatically heated. The
gas is automatically heated to 37°C in approx. 10 minutes.
The message Heater defect - Call service (3) is displayed for 2 seconds in case of
a function defect of the gas heater (e.g., cable flawed or broken, loose plug).
Check gas heating using a different tube. Should the error message be displayed
again, you can continue using the device without gas heating by observing the
risks for hypothermia. Check gas heating after surgery using a different tube.
If the message Heater defect -> Call service persists, call an authorized service
technician to check the device.
The status bar (3) depicts the following displays in case of excess temperature:
Temperature > 42 °C (for 3 s) ->Unplug heater ->(after removing plug) Cool down
