Loading A Syringe; Important - IVAC P5000 Mk II Mode D'emploi

Place the pump on a stable horizontal surface or secure using the pole clamp fitted.
Prepare, load and prime the single use disposable syringe and extension line using standard
aseptic techniques.
Only use a syringe of the type and size indicated in this manual. Using an
incorrect syringe could adversely affect the accuracy of the infusion and the
performance of the pump.
When initially loading the syringe, allow for the volume of fluid contained in the
extension line and retained in the syringe at the end of infusion as this "dead-
space" will not be infused.
