1.0 INTRODUCTION
This manual should be reviewed with all personnel involved with CR4000 systems to insure proper and
safe use.
The MIRA CR4000 and the interchangeable probes were designed to meet the exacting and practical
needs of Ophthalmologists who perform Cryosurgery. The system rapidly freezes or defrosts probe tips
while the ergonomically designed handles remain warm. It is non-electric, can be used with medical
grade CO
2
or N
2
O (non-siphon cylinders) and has three pre-selected temperature settings. The unique
design of the MIRA Cryo probe isolates the gas expansion chamber at the very tip of the probe, thereby
assuring that freezing and defrosting the probe, thereby assuring that freezing and defrosting occurs only
at the target area. Tip-only freeze also eliminates the need for an insulating boot, which can obscure the
surgeon’s view
The MIRA CR4000 has a rapid freeze and defrost cycle available, providing greater control of
application time.
Temperature settings for both CO
2
and N
2
O allow for pre-selected tip temperatures.
The choices of temperatures are -65, -35 and -5 (+/-5deg.C) for CO
2
and -85, -55 and -25 (+/- 5 C) for
N

3.0 GENERAL COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONS
3.1 Console
3.1.1. Front Panel (See Fig. 1)
The front panel has an “ON/OFF” switch, a gas supply pressure gauge, a tip
temperature selector and a probe receptacle.
Probes are connected to the console when the jack end is completely inserted into
the receptacle.
The “ON/OFF” switch controls the flow of the gas supply coming into the console.
The pressure gauge indicates supply pressure and not pressure to the probe.
When the “ON/OFF” switch is in the “OFF” position, the gas pressure gauge will
indicate zero. In the “ON” position, the gauge indicator should be in the green zone
(680-900psi) in order to achieve maximum efficiency. When cylinder pressure falls into
the yellow zone (below 680 psi), the probe tip temperature may vary or be warmer than
indicated. This indicates that the cylinder needs to be re-filled or changed. When a
cylinder is heated above room temperature it may exceed maximum pressure 900psi
(red zone). In this situation allow the cylinder to equilibrate to room temperature
(Approx. 70°F) before using*..
The three position temperature selector controls the tip temperature and offers a
choice of the following temperatures:
-65°, -35°and -5°(+/- 5°C) for CO
2
-85°, -55°and -25°(+/- 5°C) for N
2
O
* CAUTION: Do not exceed the following pressures when filling non-siphon gas
cylinders.
CO
2
: 850psi max @70°F N
2
O: 730psi max. @ 70°F
3.1.2RearPanel (See Fig. 1)
The rear panel has a barbed hose fitting for the exhaust system, a threaded fitting for
gas input and protected hoses which connect the consoles inner pneumatics for the
foot switch actuator mechanisms.
The exhaust system is for removing Nitrous Oxide (N
2
O) or Carbon Dioxide (CO
2
)
from the treatment area. Connect one end of the supplied 25ft. scavenger hose to the
barbed fitting and the other end to an aspiration system or operating room scavenger
system The gas input is for Nitrous Oxide or Carbon Dioxide coming into the system
from the cylinder. It is a 7/16-20 threaded fitting designed for use with the supplied
high-presssurehose

3.2 60"HighPressureHose(CR4260)
Both ends of the high pressure hose have 5/8 in. Hex nuts and 7/16-20 female pipe threads.
Connect one end to the Cryo Console “gas input” on the rear panel and the other end to the
gas cylinder filter connector assembly.
3.3 Gas Cylinder Connectors (CR43xx)
N²O and CO²gas cylinders come in a variety of sizes and with different connector
standards. Refer to ”Table 1" for the gas cylinder connector that suits your application. If
you are unsure or have any questions, contact your distributor or MIRA Inc.
MIRA gas cylinder connectors come in a choice of two configurations:
Without Filter assembly: For use with Dual Cylinder Cryo Carriers that come with factory
installed sintered metal filters.
With a Micro-fiber or sintered metal Filter assembly attached: For use with basic CR4000
systems.
IMPORTANT: Micro-fiber or sintered metal filters on the gas line will reduce the
introduction of particulates into the system, therefore reducing the chance of malfunction.
3.4 Micro-fiber Filter Assembly/Sintered Metal Filter Assembly
A choice of the above filter systems is supplied with each system either separately; as part
of a gas cylinder connector assembly; or factory installed in a Cryo carrier. These filter
assemblies are critical elements of the MIRA ophthalmic Cryo CR4000 system. A leading
cause of malfunction is the presence of particulates in the system. These particulates
originate from the gas supply and must be filtered in order to achieve proper system
performance. Replacement Filters; Micro fiber (packs of 12) or Sintered Metal (packs of 3)
along with replacement O-Rings are supplied with each system. Replacement filter packs
are available from MIRA or your distributor.

3.8 CR4000 Instructional Video (CR40x)
The CR4000 system instruction video is available in several formats: CD, NTSC, SECAM or
PAL. A videotape or CD is supplied with each CR4000 system. The format received is customer
specified. The video contains an overview of the CR4000 system and is intended to complement
this manual. It can also be used as an instructional aid.
3.9 Ophthalmic Probes
All probe shafts and tips are stainless steel. Refer to Table II for a listing of the MIRA
Ophthalmic Cryo Probes. The gas expansion chamber is at the very tip of the probes,
thereby assuring that freezing and defrosting occurs only at the target area. Warm high-
pressure gas insulates the shaft during freezing and defrosting cycles eliminating the need
for and insulating boot while reducing the danger of freezing adjacent tissues. The
handles present an unobstructed view of the probe shaft and remain comfortable to the
hand during use.

4.0 INITIAL SET-UP PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT: To be performed or double checked each time an element of the CR4000
system is added, changed or disassembled.
Obtain a non-siphon gas cylinder of N
2
O or CO
2
. The type of cylinder and gas selected will
determine the connector needed. See table 1 for a complete selection of gas cylinder connectors.
WARNING; Siphon gas cylinders will vent gas in a liquid state when the valve is opened. Do
not use siphon gas cylinders

First through innovation 0086
Mira, Inc.*414 Quaker Highway * Uxbridge, MA 01569 * Tel: [phone] * 800 847-6472 * Fax: [phone] p. 9
Be sure that the gas cylinder is properly secured to a rack or the MIRA Equipment Carrier. It is
important to prevent the cylinder from tipping over. If the cylinder was not stored critically, set
aside for 24 hours. If it is hot or cold due to storage conditions, set it aside for 24hrs to equilibrate
to room temperature.
Make sure that the “ON/OFF” valve on the front panel of the console is in the “OFF” position.
Connect one end of the high-pressure hose to the “gas input” on the back of the console and the
other end to the gas supply through the Micro-Filter Assembly. Tighten both the 5/8 hex nuts by
hand then tighten them using an appropriate wrench. Attach cylinder connector to the gas supply
cylinder per the appropriate procedure below.
For CGA connector;
a. Place the adaptor against the mating outlet of the cylinder valve.
b. Engage the quick-coupling nut and tighten by hand.
For T-Yoke connector;
a. To ensure a tight seal, use the washer supplied with the cylinder.
b. Place the T-Yoke connector over the cylinder stub valve.
c. Tighten the “T” handle by hand.
Connect one end of the 25ft. Scavenger hose to the rear panel fitting labeled “System Exhaust”
Connect the other end to an aspiration system or equivalent.
Note; Use of the scavenger hose will result in quieter operation of the CR4000.
Check to be sure that the “ON/OFF’ valve on the front panel of the Cryo console is in the “OFF”
position. Then, completely open the valve on top of the gas cylinder by turning it counter-
clockwise. When the cylinder valve is completely open, turn it back (clockwise) one quarter-
turn.
This prevents the cylinder valve freezing and locking in the open position.
Listen and look for leaks at either end of the high-pressure hose. An audible hiss or frost on a
fitting identifies a leak. A leak can be corrected by tightening the appropriate 5/8 nut(s) on the
high-pressure hose. Any leak in the system will adversely affect the system performance,
particularly freezing and defrosting.
5.0 FOOT-SWITCH OPERATION
The foot-switch has approximately 12ft. (3.66metres) of reach in any direction.
A hissing sound is present each time the foot-switch is depressed or released.
Depressing the foot-switch pedal at any compass point will instantly freeze the probe tip.
Releasing the foot-switch pedal will instantly defrost the probe tip.
A popping sound may be heard from the relief valve if the foot-switch is depressed within 30
seconds of its last release. This is normal. The purpose is to lower the exhaust pressure so that
freezing can take place.

6.0 TEST PROCEDURE - To be performed prior to patient treatment
6.1 Select an Ophthalmic Cryo Probe and unscrew the protective cap from the probe jack.
6.2 Inserttheprobejackallthewayintothereceptacle on the front panel.
IMPORTANT: When the probe is not in use, the protective cap should be kept on the
probe jack to prevent foreign matter and moisture from entering the probe system during
handling, cleaning and sterilizing. (See section 8.0).
6.3 PRECONDITION PROBES - To assure proper probe operation, gas must be purged
from the probes prior to their use. To properly purge gas from a probe, follow the
procedure below,
6.3.1. Set the front panel valve “ON/OFF” switch to “ON”
6.3.2. Verifythereisaminimumof680psigaugeofpressure. Check the pressure gauge
Indicator, it should be in the green zone. (680-900psi gauge)
6.3.3. Select the -25º C temperature setting for Nitrous Oxide (N
2
O)
Select the -5º C temperature setting for Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
6.3.4. Depress the foot pedal for 10 seconds and then release.
6.3.5. Wait 60 seconds while the exhaust gas is escaping from the rear scavenger port.
IMPORTANT;
Mostofthepurgingoccursduringthelast30seconds of the purge
cycle.
6.3.6. Repeat steps 6.3.4.and 6.3.5.twice.This will remove internal condensation as well
as restore ambient temperature to the system.
6.3.7. Thesystemisnowreadyforuse.
Shouldyouwishtoperforman“iceball”test,proceed as follows;
Remove probe tip cap. Submerge the tip into a solution of sterile saline and
depress the foot pedal for 10seconds, keeping the tip in the solution. After
ten seconds, with the foot pedal depressed, remove the probe tip from the
solution. An ice ball of 1.5 to 2.5 mm larger than the diameter of the probe
tip should have been formed. Release the foot pedal. In about 4 seconds, the
ice ball should be free to move when tipping the probe.
6.4. To remove the probe, allow the gas to dissipate for approximately 60 seconds. This
relieves the gas pressure in the system. If the probe must be removed quickly, turn the
“ON/OFF” valve to “OFF” while depressing the foot-switch. This action depressurizes
the system instantly.

7.0 PRESSURE REDUCTION REGULATORS
For optimum performance of the Mini-Vitreous Probe CR4045, a standard pressure reduction regulator
should be used to reduce the gas pressure delivered to the CR4000 system. A suitable two-stage pressure
reduction regulator is used instead of the cylinder connector. The gas pressure from the cylinder should
be adjusted to indicate 625psi on the CR4000 front panel gauge.
A pressure reduction regulator is only recommended for the Mini- Vitreous Probe CR4045. For all
other probes, the pressure should be set between 680 and 900psi(700psi is preferred), within the green
zone of the front panel gauge. Contact your MIRA representative for more information on pressure
reduction regulators.
8.0 PROBE CARE
8.1 Use
The Ophthalmic Cryo probes must be handled with care. They are non-electric and are
easily inserted or removed from the console’s receptacle. Do not use the probe if the tip is
scratched or damaged. Return scratched or damaged probes to MIRA for repair.
WARNING; Do not alter the shape of the probe tip. The shape of the probe tip is vital to
its proper function. Any change to the probe tip will void the manufacturer’s warranty.
8.2. Cleaning
The probes can be cleaned in accordance with the published protocol. The entire probe
should never be submerged in any solution. The probe jack cap should always be
attached during cleaning or sterilization to prevent foreign particles from entering the
body.
8.3 Storage
Storing the probes in tight coils is not recommended. Coil loops should be a minimum of
6 inches. The white caps will protect the probe tip and probe jack when being transported
or stored.
8.4 Sterilizing
CR4000 probes are made of stainless steel, Teflon and silicone rubber. The probes should
be sterilized in accordance with hospital protocol and Mira, Inc. IFU. It is the user’s
responsibility to select the sterilizing conditions that do not harm these materials. These
materials will tolerate steam sterilization.
WARNING; The probe jack cover must be screwed into place before sterilizing
regardless of the sterilizing methods used. If moisture from steam or gas enters the probe
during sterilization, it will adversely affect the performance of the system.
Please ensure that the probe tip cover is on at all times when the probe is not in use.
