BEGINNING THERAPY

Green Light
On/Off Button
Side Tabs
1. Press and hold the On/Off button for two seconds; an audible
beep will confirm that therapy is on. A green light on the front of
the unit indicates that therapy is on.
NOTE: Pressing the On/Off button begins the 192 hour (eight
day expected service life) life cycle of the therapy unit. Turning
the therapy unit off stops the life cycle counter. Turning the
therapy unit on for purposes other than delivering therapy
reduces the life cycle of the therapy unit. It is not recommended
to press the On/Off button until therapy is ready to begin.
NOTE: To turn therapy unit off, press and hold the On/Off button
for five seconds.
2. With therapy on, assess dressing to ensure integrity of seal.
The dressing should have a wrinkled appearance and the foam
•
bolster should be compressed.
The pressure indicator on the dressing should be in the
•
collapsed position.
If there is any evidence of a leak, refer to the PREVENA™ 125
•
Therapy Unit Indicators and Alerts section.
3. Place the therapy unit into the PREVENA™ 125 Therapy Unit
Carrying Case. Make sure the display is visible through the
opening in the carrying case when the front flap is lifted.
2. Insert the canister into the PREVENA™ 125
Therapy Unit and slide inward until canister
clicks. Canister is fully inserted when the
side tabs are flush with the body of the
therapy unit.
3. Connect the dressing tubing to the canister
tubing by twisting the connectors until they
lock.
