Replacing the External Fuses

1. Turn the program unit power switch off.
2. Disconnect the program unit from the power supply.
3. The program unit's fuse holder is located adjacent to the power switch on the rear of the top panel. Use a
small flat-head screwdriver to lift the lid of the fuse holder and pull the fuse holder from the chassis.
4. Remove each fuse by pulling it from its socket. Replace each fuse with a new fuse of the
appropriate specifications.
5. Reinsert the fuse holder in the program unit. Push the lid of the fuse holder in until the release snaps back
into position.
CAUTION: Replace each fuse with one of the correct specifications, as listed in Specifications.

Appendix A: Confirming Valve Adjustment: Visually or by X-ray

Adjustment of the packaged valve can be confirmed visually or by x-ray. Adjustment of the implanted valve can be
confirmed by x-ray, if desired.
Figure 7 shows an x-ray of a CODMAN HAKIM Valve. The white marker on the valve indicates the right hand
side of the valve. The pressure indicator on the white ring indicates the chosen setting. If the valve were inverted,
the white marker would appear on the left side.
The positions of the pressure selection keys on the program unit's front panel also correlate with the positions of
the pressure indicator on the valve, as seen when x-rayed (Figure 8). The figure shows the location of the pressure
indicator for each setting (30 through 200). When the valve is adjusted to 70, 120, or 170, the pressure indicator
aligns with the "X" in the center of the valve.
The position of the pressure indicator of a packaged valve can also be observed visually. Figure 9 shows a
magnified view.
X-raying an Implanted Valve
Use an x-ray with intensifying TV screen, or an x-ray plate to confirm proper valve setting. Take care when
positioning the patient's head so that:
• the nonimplanted side of the head rests on the plate (the implanted side is uppermost from the plate), and,
• the inlet valve is parallel to the x-ray plate.
