WARNING The exhaust port for sidestream CO
2
is an output for the expired
gases from the patient and any connected breathing apparatus. The exhaust port
is intended only for connection to gas collection equipment such as gas
scavenger devices (the device should comply with ISO 8835-3:1997 E). Do not
allow any other connection to the exhaust port.
WARNING If using a watertrap, the watertrap is disposable and should only be
used for a single patient. Do not reuse the watertrap for another patient.
Note After you connect a mainstream CO
2
sensor or sidestream CO
2
watertrap, the
Propaq CS monitor displays the waveform briefly without a scale. It displays
WARM UP (for mainstream) or START UP (for sidestream) in the CO
2
numerics
window. After about 30 seconds, the monitor displays the CO
2
measurement and
waveform range.
