Safety Instructions EN 7
3 Safety Instructions
For your own safety, the safety of your patients, and to
comply with the requirements of EU Directive 93/42/
EEC, please observe the following points:
• Please follow the instructions in this User’s Manual. They
are a part of the case and therefore must be available
at all times.
• Prerequisites for use of this case include thorough
knowledge and observation of this User’s Manual.
• The case is intended only for the described purpose.
• If third-party items are used, functional failures may oc-
cur and fitness for use may be restricted. Biocompatibi-
lity requirements may also not be met. Please note that
in such cases, any claim under warranty and liability
will be voided if neither the accessories nor genuine
replacement parts recommended in the instructions for
use are used.
• Be sure that spilled liquids (for example, from ampou-
les) are cleaned up immediately. Observe the warning
and disposal regulations of the manufacturers involved.
• To prevent infection or bacterial contamination, observe
the instructions in Section “6 Hygiene preparation” on
page 11.
• If the case is equipped with oxygen cylinders and other
devices, be sure to observe the accompanying User’s
Manuals and special instructions.
• Protect the oxygen cylinders from accidents.
• Keep the devices free from oil and grease.
• Make sure you wash your hands before handling
oxygen cylinders.
• When assembling the parts and when changing cylinders,
turn all screws by hand. Do not in any event use tools.
• Always open the cylinder valve slowly.
• Smoking and open flames are strictly forbidden in the
vicinity of oxygen-related equipment.
• Make sure you always have adequately filled oxygen
cylinders. It is recommended that you keep a full

8EN Assembly
4 Assembly
4.1 Assembly of wall mounting
If you would like to mount the case on the wall of a
vehicle, use wall mounting WM 15370 (see Section “9
Supply Schedule” on page 13).
If you would like to mount the case on the wall of a buil-
ding, use the appropriate wall mounting WM 15731 (see
Section “9 Supply Schedule” on page 13).
1. Mark the spots for the holes on the surface where you
want to fasten the case.
You can use the wall mounting as a stencil.
2. Drill the holes:
– in vehicles: with a drill bit of 3 mm in diameter
– in buildings: with an appropriate bit for the requi-
red dowel.
3. Screw the wall mounting tightly into place.

Operation EN 9
5 Operation
5.1 Space Dividers
The interior of the case bottom can be separated as desi-
red with the space dividers (5, 12 and 14). See Illustration
1, Device Overview, for an example.
Observe the following when using the dividers:
• proper positioning as illustrated
• right-angle placement in the opposing grooves
• correct clicking-in of the snap elements
To remove a divider, press both circular snap elements
together (as shown) and lift the divider.
5.2 Tube Holders
The manufacturer has supplied tube holders 15 a) and
15 b) as sets with the fastening elements. You can fasten
the tube holders to any divider in the case bottom (see
illustration).
5.3 Ampoule Holders
The ampoule holders (19 and 20), delivered as a set with
the fastening elements or as replacement parts, can be
attached (as shown) to the desired spot on the inside of the
cover (2)).
Important!
Make sure that when you close the cover, no ampoules
are crushed by a divider or other equipment.

10 EN Operation
5.4 Inserting Oxygen Cylinders
Be sure to wash your hands before you insert or change
oxygen cylinders.
If you want to fasten an oxygen cylinder of 0.8 liters or
2.0 liters into the case bottom
(9), use accessory WM 15141, Set of two belts for
oxygen cylinders (17). Fasten the oxygen cylinder in the
oxygen cylinder compartment (7) as shown in the illustra-
tion. To fasten a 2.0-liter oxygen cylinder, use the outer
clamp (6) on the floor of the case. If you want to fasten an
0.8-liter cylinder, use the middle and left clamps. Be sure
that you pull the belts tightly during assembly in order to
prevent the cylinders from slipping out of place.
5.5 MEDUMAT Holder
To fasten a MEDUMAT ventilation device into the case
bottom, use the holder for MEDUMAT (22). Click the ME-
DUMAT holder into place in the case bottom as shown in
the illustration. Then place the MEDUMAT so that the lower
grid on the device catches in the gap in the holder. Press
the MEDUMAT up into the holder until you hear it click into
place.
Important!
Your hands must be free of
grease and products contai-
ning alcohol when you insert
or change oxygen cylinders.
Fire hazard!

Hygiene preparation EN 11
5.6 OMNIVAC holder
To fasten the OMNIVAC secretion pump into the case
bottom, use the holder for the OMNIVAC (23). Click the
holder into the case bottom as shown in the illustration.
If the distance between the case and the patient is too
great, it may be necessary to remove the collection contai-
ner from the holder and take advantage of the length of the
extension hose.
Important
Always hold the collection container upright. You can
prevent activation of the overflow protection and thus avoid
interrupting suction activity.
6 Hygiene preparation
Clean the case inside and out with a simple disinfectant
as required. Observe the User’s Manual for the disinfec-
ting product used. We recommend Terralin®. You are
recommended to wear suitable gloves (e.g. household or
disposable gloves) during disinfection procedures. Take all
the devices and materials out of the case.
If your case is equipped with an oxygen cylinder, the
external fittings have to be cleaned. For this purpose, use a
clean, dry cloth or a cloth slightly dampened with water.
Equipment components
Follow instructions for cleaning, disinfecting or, if required,
sterilizing in the accompanying directions.
Important:
When cleaning the equi-
pment, do not use any
cleaning product that con-
tains alcohol. Fire hazard!

12 EN Functional Test
7 Functional Test
Carry out a functional test of the case after each use (or at
least every two years if the case is not used). If you disco-
ver an error during the test, you are not permitted to use the
emergency case again until the error has been resolved.
Follow these instructions for a functional test:
1. Make sure the inserts, cover, ampoule holders, case
corners and the handle are not damaged.
2. Check that the case locks are easy to open and close.
3. Make sure the case hinges and cover can be moved
easily and are correctly secured.
Replace defective parts.
8 Maintenance
8.1 Intervals
The emergency cases are maintenance-free. Observe the
intervals for regular functional tests (see Section “7 Functio-
nal Test” on page 12).
We recommend allowing the manufacturer’s (Weinmann)
expert personnel to carry out maintenance and repairs.
