• To avoid electrical shock, switch the pump off and remove the plug from the mains before cleaning the pump.
• Make sure the Infinity AC power adapter is completely dry before plugging into the mains.
Before using or setting a feeding regimen, check the integrity of the pump for the items below.
There are no cracks anywhere on the pump housing.
!
The power pins of the AC adaptor socket of the pump are of equal length, not bent and not corroded.
!
The keypad is not cut or damaged and the text is legible.
!
Scratches on the display that affects display legibility.
!
Inspect the rotor; verify that the rollers are not damaged, perpendicularly in relation to the rotor and turn freely
!
by hand.
Verify the AC power socket pins are not bent or corroded.
!
Verify that the AC power adapter incl. housing and cord is clean and not damaged.
!
Caution: Do not use the pump if it is damaged.
Use of home brew tube feed / Powder based tube feed
Any nutrition added into the enteral feeding line must be of a homogeneous nature and should remain
!
homogeneous during the feeding regimen.
Use only feeding solutions prescribed by the responsible clinician, registered dietician, registered nurse or other
!
licensed practitioner.
Nutricia recommend using ready to feed tube nutrition as this is developed for the intended delivery
!
specifications of the pump.
Non-liquid food ingredients and mixed or reconstituted foods may tend to occlude the flow within the feeding
!
tube and Flocare Infinity giving set. Clinicians and caregivers should carefully monitor the pump during use with
these types of feeds.
Users must ensure that any substrate used for any mixed or reconstituted powdered nutrition is indicated as
!
suitable for enteral tube feeding delivery (refer to instructions for use on nutrition / substrate added).
Mixed or reconstituted nutrition may have foam. If using this type of nutrition, allow it to sit for some time until
!
the foam has been dissolved before pouring it into a feeding reservoir. This will reduce the chance of an 'AIR in
giving set' alarm.
In using any mixed, reconstituted powdered nutrition or breast milk, we advise users to ensure the nutrition is
!
prepared and dissolved properly as to avoid particles, foam accumulation or films in the Flocare Infinity giving
set potentially hampering pump performance and a normal feeding regimen.
Technical & EMC
The manufacturer recommends an inspection of the pump every 2 years by an authorised service centre or a
!
trained and qualified technician.
If a technical failure occurs or if the pump is dropped, the pump should be checked by an authorised service
!
centre or a trained and qualified technician.
Do not modify this equipment. Modification of this device or its accessories can result in physical hazards
!
including delayed therapy, over delivery, under delivery, electrocution and fire. These hazards could result in
patient injury or death.
The use of other accessories, adaptors and cables than listed within this manual may result in increased
!
emissions or decreased immunity of the equipment of the Flocare Infinity III pump.
Medical electrical equipment needs special precautions regarding EMC and needs to be installed and put into
!
service according to the EMC information provided in the accompanying documents.
Portable and mobile RF communications equipment (cellular telephones) can affect medical electrical
!
equipment.
If the Flocare Infinity III pump is used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment, the pump should be
!
observed to verify normal operation.
