Use Instructions - LEM Aspimed 1.9 Manual Del Usuario

• Use of the device in ambient conditions other than those specified in the manual may seriously impair its
safety and technical characteristics.
• In the event of aspiration without the container and/or antibacterial filter, or if it is suspected that substances
have entered the aspiration circuit, contact your stockist at once.
• Always use the device in the vertical position on an unobstructed, stable, flat surface.
• The lifetime of the device itself is 5 years, and that of the container and silicone tubes 1 year or 30 sterilisation
cycles. However, the lifetime may vary depending on the operating environment.
Each time before use, ensure that all the accessories are perfectly clean according to the instructions indicated
in the "CLEANING AND DISINFECTION OPERATIONS".
1. OPERATION WITH THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER POWER SUPPLY CORD
1.1 Before using the device, check the charge level of the vehicle battery.
1.2 For use in a car, camper, boat, etc....., connect the cigarette lighter power supply cord (19) to the device
socket (7).
1.3 Connect the device as indicated in figure 1a of page 1 for the 1000 ml vessel version or figure 1b of page
2 if the 2000 ml vessel is used.
1.4 Start the device by placing the switch to the "I" (ON) position (4) (green pilot light on).
1.5 The vacuum regulator (5) can be used to set the level of vacuum required (bar/KPa). Turn the knob clockwise,
in the "+" direction, to obtain a higher vacuum or anticlockwise, in the "-" direction, for a lower vacuum;
these values are read on the vacuum gauge (6). Important: the vacuum values on the control decal are
purely for guidance; always refer to the vacuum gauge reading.
1.6 After the application, switch off the appliance, detach the cigarette lighter power supply cord from the power
socket (19) and perform the cleaning operations as illustrated in the "CLEANING AND DISINFECTION"
paragraph.
1.7 In the event of a blown fuse in the cigarette lighter plug, replace with a 6.3A – 250V delayed fuse – dimensions
Ø 6.3 x 30 mm, by unscrewing the end of the cigarette lighter plug.
2. OPERATION WITH A BATTERY AND/OR WITH THE MULTI-VOLTAGE POWER SUPPLY UNIT
2.1 The device is supplied with the battery partially charged. We therefore recommend charging it before use.
2.2 To charge the battery, with the device switched off connect the multi-voltage power supply unit (16) to the
device's socket (7) and to the mains power supply by means of the cord (17). Charging time: about 4 hours.
Charge duration: about 40/45 minutes at maximum suction power.
2.3 Operation with internal battery only:
Switch the device on by pressing the "ON-OFF button (4) (green light comes on). If the green light goes out
during use, and the yellow light comes on, there is about 10/15 minutes of battery charge left (reserve level).
Therefore: terminate the application if possible. If the application cannot be terminated, it can be continued
until the red (battery flat) light comes on, but if this occurs do not use the appliance for more than 3 minutes
to avoid damaging the battery. To continue the application with the battery flat (red light on), connect the
multi-voltage power supply unit (16) (as described in point 2.2).
2.4 At the end of the application, switch the device off by pressing the button (4). Connect the power supply
unit (16) to charge the battery (as described in point 2.2). When the appliance is not in use, we recommend
leaving the power supply unit (16) connected so that the battery charge level is always optimum.
2.5 For aspiration procedures see points 1.3; 1.4; 1.5.
N.B.: when the battery power drops below a set level the aspirator shuts down to avoid damage to
the battery. If absolutely necessary, the user can restart the aspirator for 1 minute by pressing the
ON/OFF button again.
3. SECRETION COLLECTION VESSEL - 1000 ml
The 1000 ml collection bottle supplied with the aspirator can be used in two ways: as a collection vessel which
can be sterilised as shown in Figure 3a or as a collection vessel with disposable bag (9) as illustrated in Figure
3b.
3.1 Sterilisable secretion vessel (1): the secretion vessel set consists of an overflow valve, a vessel (1) in clear
material (polycarbonate) and a blue plug (2). Fit the antibacterial filter (6) straight into the plug (2); it will only
fit into the hole marked VACUUM/VUOTO, which is outlined in yellow. The antibacterial filter also protects
the aspiration circuit from any contaminating agents sucked in during use. Do not use the aspirator without
