®
filter!
C) Turn the machine on and return to Dialysis Program (“Select Program” → ‘Dialysis’ → ‘Enter’)!
D)
OPEN the shunt door till instructed OTHERWISE!
E) Allow five (5) minutes OR until NO AIR bubbles are seen flowing through the DiaSafe housing tubing.

®
filter fixed the problem OR the
flow error is intermittent! Proceed to page 44, procedure number F- 2.9.2.
