27. Caution: Avoid using accessories, detachable parts and materials with the pump that are not recommended in this manual.
Use only approved Kangaroo™ ePump™ accessories with the pump.
28. Caution: Use the pump only as directed in this user manual. Do not interconnect this device with other devices or modify the
equipment in any way outside of the recommendations in this manual. Failure to comply could result in incorrect delivery of
formula to the patient and could result in damage to the pump.
29. Caution: This pump is not intended to be used in MRI environments or in the presence of strong magnetic fields. Do not use
these devices in any areas with strong magnetic fields. The pump contains metal components which could cause unintended
movement. This unexpected movement could cause harm due to falling objects or collisions.
30. Caution: There are significant hazards associated with accidental misconnections with other infusion devices, which could lead
to patient harm or death. For more information about hazards and risk reduction strategies associated with misconnections, see
the following: The Joint Commission Sentinel Event Alert Issue 36 - April 13, 2006.
31. Do not use the pump for delivery of any fluids or substances that are not enteral solutions prescribed by qualified
medical personnel.
32. The pump is designed to be used outdoors for short periods of time (no more than 24 hours). Leaving the pump outdoors for
extended periods of time (exceeding 24 hours) can result in damage and/or fading of the pump devices.
33. This device is designed for use on a conventional IV pole. As with any medical device, it is possible for the weight of the pump
to cause the IV pole to tip over. This could result in injury to a patient or operator. When attaching the pump to the IV pole, take
precautions to ensure the IV pole remains stable while in use.
34. This enteral feeding system was designed to meet IEC 60601-1 safety standards. For clarification, purposes, the feeding set is
considered an Applied Part and has been tested and evaluated accordingly.
35. Warning: Not for intravenous use. Do not use for intravenous infusion into a patient. Intravenous infusion of enteral fluids can
result in serious complications up to and including death.
36. Warning: This enteral feeding pump should only be used for patients who can tolerate the flow rates and accuracy levels
delivered by the pump. Premature infants may require higher accuracy rates than specified for this enteral feeding pump.
Delivery of fluid to patients who cannot tolerate the pump accuracy can result in over or under delivery with the possibility
of aspiration.
37. Use only commercially available pre-packed or commercially prepared feeding solutions prescribed by a licensed health
care provider, dietitian or nutritionist. Do not use homemade blenderized or liquidised foods or other non-prescribed, non-
commercially available feeding solutions.
