Cleaning and Reuse of Sensors
Reusable sensors can be cleaned as follows:
Disconnect the sensor from the patient cable, if appropriate. Wipe the entire sensor clean with a
70% isopropyl alcohol moistened pad. Allow the sensor to air dry before returning it to use.

To connect the SpO
2
sensor to the X Series unit:
1. When using a sensor extension cable, inspect the cable before use. Replace the cable if it
shows any signs of wear, breakage, or fraying. Plug the sensor extension cable into the SpO
2
receptacle on the side of the X Series unit:

Displaying SpO
2
, SpCO, and SpMet Measurements
When the connection is made between the SpO
2
sensor and the unit, the message,
INITIALIZING, appears in the SpO
2
display. After a brief delay, the unit displays the SpO
2
measurement. If SpCO and SpMet are installed, the SpCO and SpMet measurements will
alternate every two seconds underneath the SpO
2
display.
If the message, SENSOR FAILURE, appears, the sensor is either incompatible with the X Series
unit, or it is not working, and you will need to replace the sensor.
A blip bar appears on the right side of the SpO
2
numeric display window. The blip bar indicates
the pulse derived from the plethysmograph normalized waveform.
