SLAVE MONITOR CONNECTION
If equipped with a VGA connector, the Automated Impella Controller can
be connected to a monitor to display information from the controller, at a

CLEANING
• Clean the Automated Impella Controller keypad and display with
either 70% isopropyl alcohol or soap and water. (NOTE: Be aware
that soft buttons may be activated when you spray or wipe the
display)
• Clean the Automated Impella Controller housing with mild detergent
• Sani-Cloth HB wipes may be used to clean the AIC.
• Do NOT clean with or expose any part of the clear sidearm of the
Impella Catheter (e.g., infusion filter, pressure reservoir) to alcohol.
Alcohol has been shown to cause cracks and leaks in these
components.
Carefully read labels on common skin preps and lotions to avoid
using any alcohol-containing products in the area of the infusion
filter or pressure reservoir.
• Do NOT allow any fluids to enter the connector sockets.
• Clean the connector cable with 70% isopropyl alcohol.
Alcohol Warning
Do NOT clean the Impella Catheter infusion filter or pressure
reservoir with alcohol and AVOID exposing these components to
products containing alcohol.
STORING THE AUTOMATED IMPELLA
CONTROLLER
The Li-Ion batteries must be charged for 5 hours prior to
system operation in order to meet the runtime requirement
of 1 hour. Failure to do so will yield a shorter runtime. After
being unplugged, the Automated Impella Controller will
operate for at least 60 minutes after the batteries have
been fully charged.
Place the AIC on a horizontal surface to prevent falling.
• Connect the AC power cord to an AC outlet.
• The battery may be destroyed if the Automated Impella Controller is
stored with a depleted battery.
• To keep the Automated Impella Controller battery charged, the
controller should be plugged into an AC outlet. When plugged
into an AC outlet, the controller battery will charge whether the
controller is on or off.
Battery Power Note
If the Automated Impella Controller is allowed to discharge completely
and the system shuts down due to low battery, the controller will need to
charge for an extended period of time before it will turn on again.
