The case must be securely fastened in the vehicle using the strap loops provided for the purpose. • The device must not be subjected to violent impact. • Use the carry bag recommended by Air Liquide Medical Systems only. • During transport, the use of Monnal T60 outside of its bag does not ensure compliance with EN 13718-1, EN 1789 and EN 794-3 standards. Risk of cross-contamination • Reusing single-use accessories or consumables carries the risk of patient cross-contamination. This risk also arises if reusable accessories or consumables are not sterilized between each use. • The breathing tube, mask, patient circuit, bacteriological filters, expiratory valve, humidification chamber, CO2 probe or nebulizer adapters are part of the air path and can be contaminated under normal operating conditions, and in the event of a single fault condition by bodily fluids, secretions or gas exhaled by the patient. Maintenance • This ventilator must be checked regularly. To plan and keep a record of all maintenance, operations, refer to the maintenance sheet in the appendix. • In accordance with the EN 60601-1 Standard (Appendix A, Para. 6.8.2.b), the manufacturer, the assembler, the installer or the importer shall only consider itself responsible for the effects on the safety, reliability and characteristics of a device if: • “Assembly, extensions, adjustments, modifications or repairs have been carried out by persons whom it has authorized; • The electrical installation in the corresponding area is compliant with IEC recommendations. • The device is used in conformity with the instructions for use.” • The approved technician must use only Air Liquide Medical Systems spare parts when carrying out routine maintenance of the device. • Do not use abrasive powders, alcohol, acetone or other easily flammable solvents. • The device must be disconnected from the mains during any procedure such as maintenance or cleaning. Recommendations for aspiration • Aspiration may be carried out according to different methods: fully unplugging the circuit, opening a respiratory circuit connection, or closed system. • When using a breathing tube in a closed system, it is advised to use the PAC mode with the parameters adjusted to the patient and, if tolerated, a PEEP of at least 3 cmH2O. Medical contraindications • Certain conditions require appropriate treatment before ventilator use. The absence of such treatment may have negative effects on the patient‘s health. • Monnal T60 is not suitable for very low-weight patients (premature infants, and infants under 3 kg). • Monnal T60 cannot be used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) rooms unless a sufficiently long circuit is added. • Monnal T60 is not designed for hyperbaric ventilation. • The CPV ventilation function (cardiopulmonary ventilation, optional) is not suitable for children and infants.

CO2 Measurement Probe (IRMA™)
CO2 monitoring requires a software option that can be enabled using a code. To use this option, contact your Air Liquide Medical Systems representative After purchasing this option, Air Liquide Medical Systems provides: • the activation code for the option, • the CO2 probe for measuring the concentration of exhaled carbon dioxide (in accordance with ISO 80601-255), • the necessary adapters. etCO2 connector
1. Connect the IRMA™ probe to the etCO2 connection socket (see opposite). 2. Apply power to the ventilator. 3. Connect the probe to its patient adapter (a). The probe is correctly connected to its adapter when you hear it click into position. 4. Wait at least 10 seconds. If the etCO2 monitoring block does not show 0%, or if the error ‘CO2 measurement incorrect’ is displayed, a calibration test should be carried out. See “4.16.3. Sensors”, page 62. 5. The LED flashes and then goes green. This means that the IRMA™ probe is ready for use (b). Pre-use checks (for each new patient)

Humidifier
If this ventilator is used with a humidifier, ensure that it is always placed lower than the ventilator and the patient. It is also recommended that you use patient circuits equipped with water traps when using a humidifier. Remember to empty the water traps regularly during ventilation. Ensure that water does not enter the unit during handling of the patient circuit or the humidifier (if used). If this occurs, immediately stop using the device, and contact the Technical Department. Humidification may increase the resistance of the filters used in the patient circuit. The filters should be tested frequently to check for an increase in resistance or blockage.

Nebulizer
Y-piece respiratory filters can prevent medication from being effective: their use is therefore not recommended, end.
The precision of the expired volume can be impaired: a protective filter can then be used at the expiration
Nebulization may increase the resistance of the filters used in the patient circuit. The filters should be tested frequently to check for an increase in resistance or blockage.

Applying power
Do not obstruct the vents located on the left- and right-hand sides of the device and underneath it, as this could compromise patient safety. Apply power to the device using the ON/OFF button located on the left-hand side of the unit (see opposite). ON/OFF button
The initialization tests start up (duration: up to 5 s). The buzzers sound and the alarm indicators light up. After the initialization tests, the machine displays the start-up screen. When switching the device on using internal/external battery (no mains supply connected), the ON/OFF button may need to be pressed for an extended period of time than normal to start the device (approximately 3 seconds). Make sure that you have fully charged both batteries (internal and interchangeable) before using the ventilator.

Automatic tests
The automatic tests check the integrity and correct operation of the unit’s internal components. In particular, they calibrate certain sensors, including the expiratory flow sensor and the oxygen cell. Without these tests, the precision of ventilation parameters and measurements cannot be guaranteed. Air Liquide Medical Systems therefore recommends the running of these automatic tests before each use on a patient. 1. To launch the automatic tests, press the Automatic tests key. 2. Follow the instructions on the screen. 3. Press Validate to confirm the launching of tests. At the end of testing, a window is displayed with the instruction to remove the plug from the Y-piece on the patient circuit, accompanied by an audible reminder every 2 minutes. If the user does not disconnect the patient circuit, the test stops after 20 minutes. Press “Restart “to resume the last stage of the autotests. The automatic tests end a few seconds after the cap is taken off the Y-piece. When the tests are over, press End. To interrupt the tests, press Stop and then Finish. To resume the tests, press Restart and then Validate. If the autotests fail with the message “Circuit resistance not evaluated”: • check that the selected patient category matches the patient circuit used, • check that the patient circuit is correctly connected to the device, • check that the filters and other accessories used do not generate too high a resistance. Make sure that the patient category selected corresponds to the patient circuit and the accessories used (see section “4.5.1 Selecting the patient category”).
