LUCAS

2 Chest Compression System – Instructions for Use

WARNING - PATIENT INJURY
Do not let the patient or the device stay
unattended when LUCAS operates.

Caution - keep your fingers away
Do not put your hands on or below the
Suction Cup when LUCAS operates. Keep
your fingers away from the claw locks when
attaching the Upper Part or lifting the patient.

Caution - IV access
Make sure that IV access is not obstructed.

Caution - do not block the vent holes

Do not cause a blockage of the vent holes
under the hood since this can cause the
device to become too hot.

Caution - device alarms
If there is any malfunction during operation
the red Alarm LED will illuminate and a
buzzer signal will be heard. For
troubleshooting, see section 8.3.

WARNING - MALFUNCTION
If there are interruptions, or the
compressions are not sufficient, or
something unusual occurs during operation:
Push ON/OFF for 1 second to stop LUCAS
and remove the device. Start manual chest
compressions.

Caution - do not lift by the Patient Straps
Do not use the Patient Straps to lift the
patient. The straps are only to attach the
patient's arms to LUCAS.

3.9 Service

We recommend a yearly servicing of LUCAS
to make sure that it operates correctly. Use
the original shipping box when you send
LUCAS for servicing. Keep the original
shipping box with padding for this purpose.

WARNING - DO NOT OPEN
Never open the casing of LUCAS. Do not
change or modify external or internal parts of
LUCAS.

Unless specified differently, all servicing and
repairs must be done by service personnel
that are approved by JOLIFE AB.

If the above conditions are not followed, this
can lead to patient/operator injury or death,
and will void the warranty.

Consult your distributor or JOLIFE AB for
current information on where to send
LUCAS for maintenance.
