Warnings
• Do not modify or replace connectors except with Philips-approved
connectors. Use neonatal and infant #5 cuffs only with hoses labeled
neonatal. Use pediatric/adult cuffs only with hoses labeled pediatric/
adult.
• Never connect intra-arterial or intra-venous lines, or any other
incompatible connectors, to the NIBP hose. This can cause serious
injury or death.
• Avoid placing cuff on patient in a manner that can lead to a hose
becoming kinked (hose kinking may cause inaccurate readings).
• Periodically inspect hose and connector for signs of wear or
deterioration. Replace the hose if you detect a leak. Dispose of
damaged hose according to local laws for disposal of hospital waste.
• The cuff-end connectors of the M1598B and M1599B pediatric/adult
hoses require regular lubrication. Lubricate when cuffs become
difficult to connect and disconnect (spray type silicone release agent
and lubricant is recommended). Do not lubricate the instrument-
end connectors. Do not lubricate the M1596C and M1597C
neonatal/infant hose connectors.
Attaching Interconnect Hose
1. Insert the instrument-end connector into the proper monitor module
according to your monitor's Instructions for Use.
2. To connect the hose to the NIBP cuff, refer to the appropriate figure on
page 1.
