Warning Before you use a Propaq on a new patient, always turn off the Propaq for a few seconds, then turn it on again. This clears the prior patient’s trend values, alarm limit settings, and NIBP cuff inflation target. 1. If the Propaq Encore has been used for a previous patient, switch the monitor off, then on again. The monitor will turn on in the powerup patient mode with the associated settings. Verify that the powerup tone is produced. If the monitor has SpO2, verify two tones are produced to make sure that both speakers are working. 2. Verify the monitor is in the correct patient mode according to the patient’s age. If the patient mode is not correct, change it (see page 29 to change the patient mode). Warning Always check the patient mode when monitoring a new patient. The patient mode determines default alarm limits, maximum cuff inflation pressure, and internal algorithm settings. 3. Verify the battery voltage is sufficient for monitoring. If it is less than 7.4 V, connect to a power adapter (see page 119 for information about the power adapter).
