Erasing Patient Data

All patient vital-sign data is erased when the monitor is powered off or when you
change the time and date settings. You can also erase data at any time during normal
monitor operation.

Erasing Data Before Changing the Date and Time

If you attempt to change the date and time, the monitor prompts you to confirm that you
also want to erase all stored patient data.

To erase patient data, press

; the monitor erases the data and enables the date/time

adjustment. (For information on changing the time and date settings, see

“Changing the

Time and Date”

on page 20.)

Erasing Data During Normal Operation

To erase patient data during normal operation, press and hold

for three seconds. When

the monitor prompts for confirmation, press

to confirm or

to cancel. When the

erasure is complete, the monitor returns automatically to normal operation. If you
cancel the erasure, you can then press any button other than
