The CoPilot VL®+ system consists of three main
components: the display, the video handle assembly,
and the disposable sheaths. The CoPilot VL®+ is
compact and can be used in a variety of environments;
it goes easily from the operating room to the
ambulance and other health care settings.
The CoPilot VL®+ was designed with simplicity in mind. There
are no buttons to push and no settings to change. When the
video blade is fully opened, the display will turn on and the
battery status indicator will illuminate.

There are two inputs on the side of the display: one is for the
power supply and a second for the video cable input. The
power supply is used to charge the built-in internal battery.
The video cable is used to attach the video handle to the
display. Do not twist or screw the video handle cable into
or out of the connector. To connect the Video Handle to the
display, line up the white hash mark on the handle connector
with the white hash mark on the side of the display and then
push the handle connector into the display.

One of the primary benets of the CoPilot VL®+ is that it uses
disposable sheaths. Sheaths are easily removed with the
eject mechanism and can be quickly replaced with a new one,
eliminating down time. Sheaths are single-use only and must
be disposed of after every use in accordance with hospital
procedures for general refuse. Do not attempt to use the
CoPilot VL®+ without a disposable sheath.
Note: Sheaths are provided in sealed pouches. Examine each
pouch for damage, including breach of seal, prior to use. Do
not use sheath if the seal is damaged or breached.
