5.5 Connect Power/Turn Machine On
If the machine is not already plugged in, insert the power
cord plug into a properly grounded AC receptacle at this
time. Press the ON/OFF Switch to the ON position.
When first turned on, the Medi‑Therm III enters its
standby mode:
• the ON/OFF switch will light;
• the machine will beep once;
• the SELECT heading will light;
• the WATER, PATIENT, and SET POINT
temperature displays will show dashes; and
• the °C or °F indicator will light, depending on the
scale last selected.
NOTE: If the ADD WATER indicator lights, add distilled
water until the green band on the float is visible.
5.6 Perform Indicator Light Test
Since machine indicators are essential to proper machine
operation, you should test the indicator lights each time
the machine is placed in operation. Perform this test by
pressing and holding the TEST LIGHTS button.
While holding the TEST LIGHTS button down, verify the
following occurs:
• the right and left halves of the display panel light
alternately;
• the three status legends (FLOW-OK, WARMING,
and COOLING light;
• the ALERT legend and its four (triangular)
indicators light;
• the three mode legends, SELECT heading, and
three AUTO/CONTROL OPTION legends light;
• the three temperature displays (WATER, PATIENT,
and SET POINT) indicate 888, 888.8, and 888.8,
respectively;
• the two temperature control legends (°C and °F)
and the two lines connecting SET POINT to both
the WATER and PATIENT display light;
• the audible alarm toggles.
If any indicator does not light, or the alarm does
not sound, remove the machine from use.
Start-up Procedure / Shutdown Procedure
5.7 Perform Check Flow Procedure
(when using two gray hose sets)
When two gray hose sets are in use, the CHECK WATER
FLOW alarm will only sound if the flow through both gray
hoses is occluded.
To check the flow through the wraps:
• Disconnect one gray hose set from the machine
connection. If the flow path is patent, the alarm
will not sound.
• Reconnect the hose to the machine
• Disconnect the second gray hose set from the
machine connection. If the flow path is patent,
the alarm will not sound.
• Reconnect the hose to the machine
• See p.6, section 5.2, part a for instructions on
properly connecting the hoses to the Medi
Therm III.
This completes the start-up procedures for the
Medi-Therm III machine. Please proceed to sections 7.0
through 7.3 for the operating instructions for MANUAL,
AUTO and MONITOR modes.
