SENSOR REMOVAL
CAUTION:
For the comfort of the patient and to avoid damaging the sensor, do not pull on the cable when
removing the sensor and clip from the sensor site.
When SpO
2
monitoring is completed, remove the sensor from the patient.
To remove the sensor and clip from the patient, press the clip open and remove.
When the probe is removed from the patient, the message “Prb OFF” appears in the Message
Window and an audible alarm sounds, indicating a connection has been lost.
Press the SILENCE/RESET pushbutton. The monitor silences the audible alarm tone, but the
message remains.
To remove the sensor from the clip, grasp the end of each sensor pad and pull it through to the
inside of the clip. The sensor should pop out of the clip easily. Do not pull on the cable.
NOTE:
If either the 2-Minute Audio Off or Permanent Audio Off is enabled, no audio will be heard but a
visual message will appear in the Message Window.
REMOVING THE INTERFACE CABLE
When SpO
2
monitoring is not required, disconnect the Interface Cable by squeezing the grey
tabs with your thumb and index finger while pulling the connector away from the monitor.
NOTE:
To avoid damage to the Interface Cable, always hold it by the connector rather than the cable
when connecting or disconnecting either end. To obtain longer life, avoid excessive kinking or
coiling the sensor cable.
When the probe is disconnected from the monitor, the message “No Probe” appears in the
Message Window and an audible alarm sounds indicating a connection has been broken.
Press the SILENCE/RESET pushbutton to silence the visual and audible alarm.
NOTE:
If either the 2-Minute Audio Off or Permanent Audio Off is enabled, no audio will be heard but a
visual message will appear in the Message Window.
See Section 11, ACCESSORIES for Nellcor oximeter probe types and part number information.
