Before the correct conductivity level has been reached the fluid
flow path will be orange. When the fluid preparation is finished
the bypass path on the Flow Diagram lights up green.
7. Press the fl ashing Fluid bypass button.
The dialysis fluid will now enter the dialyzer when the dialyzer
path on the Flow Diagram lights up green. Especially note that
the dialyzer should be filled from bottom to top to ensure proper
de-airation.
8. If the attention alarm
HIGH VENOUS PRESS TEST NOT MADE appears, the
venous pressure has not exceeded 50 mmHg during the
priming procedure, which means that the m achine has not
been able to test the venous pressure measurement function.
Establish a stable venous pressure over 50 mmHg until t
he
attention alarm disappears. If this attention alarm is left
unattended, unnecessary alarms and technical error will be
generated during initiating of treatment. See al
so “Venous
Patient C onnector” in “Venous Blood Line - Attach”
previously in this chapter.
When the priming volume
has been achieved,
the blood pump automatically stops and the
PRIMING VOLUME ACHIEVED menu is displayed.
Check that the venous blood line is correctly placed in the
priming detector. See "Venous Blood Line - Attach", point 5.
It is now possible to continue priming (EXTRA PRIMING)
or if requested perform a recirculation procedure
(RECIRCULATION). It is also possible to go directly to patient
connection (CONNECT PATIENT).
Select desired alternative and continue to the corresponding
instruction as follows.
If necessary, select a new priming procedure (NEW PRIMING)
where priming will be repeated from the start and the set priming
volume value be set to zero.
