Using enFlow: Five Easy Steps
1. Ensure that the Controller is plugged into a hospital grade outlet and the Warmer cable is connected to the front of the Controller.
2. Mount to an IV pole or place on a tabletop. Switch the Controller to ON with the I/0 (ON/OFF) switch on the back of the Controller.
3. Connect your IV set to your fluid bag. Connect the infusion set to the Disposable Cartridge. Prime the line and then connect the infusion set to the patient.
4. Open the covers on Warmer by sliding them apart, place the cartridge inside and close the covers. Secure the Warmer in the Warmer Holder on the Controller or on the bed with the cord clip. Place the IV line in the IV line clip to prevent it from kinking.
