• Opens an onscreen Power-down dialog with options to Power down, Sleep, or
Cancel (brief press)

•
Green indicates that AC power is present and that the battery is fully charged.

Power up the monitor
The monitor runs a brief diagnostic self-test each time it powers up.
WARNING Equipment failure risk. The monitor includes a fan that
circulates air through the device. If the fan does not run when you power
up the device, remove it from use and inform qualified service personnel
immediately. Do not use the monitor until the problem is corrected.
WARNING To ensure patient safety, listen for two audible indicators (a
piezo beeper and a speaker tone) and watch for visual alerts at power-up at
least once daily. Correct any system errors before using the monitor. In
addition to the audible indicators, the monitor LED light bar illuminates to
alert you of alarms. Amber indicates a low-level alarm. Flashing amber
indicates a medium-level alarm. Flashing red indicates a high-level alarm.
