Power up the monitor
The monitor runs a brief diagnostic self-test each time it powers up. If an alarm situation
occurs, the alert appears in the Status area.
WARNING To ensure patient safety, listen for two audible indicators (a
beeper and a speaker tone) and watch for visual alerts at power-up at least
once daily. Correct any system errors before using the monitor. In addition
to the audible indicators, the screen Status area displays color coding,
icons, and messages that help you to distinguish clinical priority and
actions, if needed.
