[1] Operating Precautions
Please follow the operating instructions described in this Manual for the safe use of the unit. The unit should
be operated only by those who have been trained and instructed properly in its operation. The unit should be
operated only for its intended use.

1-1. DANGER
Death or serious injury, damage to equipment or a fire will result if the instructions given below are not fol-
lowed.

Be sure to keep the front admittance panel and the access ports closed
when using the unit.
If the front admittance panel or an access port is left open when the unit is in use, the infant may fall
out of the baby compartment. Be sure to keep the front admittance panel and the access ports closed
during phototherapy also when it is performed on an infant placed in the incubator.

Do not leave the unit unattended when the front admittance panel or an
access port is open.
If the front admittance panel or an access port is left open, the infant may fall out of the baby compart-
ment and even lose its life. Never leave the unit unattended when the front admittance panel or an
access port is open.

If the front admittance panel, a snap-open access port or a hook slider should
be found loose or faulty, stop using the unit immediately and ask for repair.
The infant may fall.

Always check the front admittance panel operating retainer and the hook
sliders of the snap-open access ports for proper operation. If the front ad-
mittance panel or a snap-open port should not close securely, don’t place
an infant in the unit, and ask for repair.

Do not open the front admittance panel or an access port in order to lower
the incubator air temperature.
Because the incubator air temperature is controlled automatically at a set temperature, the heater
output will increase dangerously to make up for any temperature drop.

Open and close the snap-open access ports gently.


If you open or close them roughly, they may not open or close properly, which is dangerous.

After the infant is placed in the incubator, check again that the front admit-
tance panel and the access ports are all closed securely.

Do not fasten the infant fixing bands too tightly.


If they are fastened too tightly, they will press the infant dangerously.

Never place a body warmer or other possible ignition sources in or near the
unit.
Use of oxygen will increase a risk of explosion or a fire. A body warmer or other devices in which fire
is used or which will generate a spark may cause an explosion or a fire if used near the unit.

− 10 −
Do not use the unit in the presence of a flammable anesthetic gas.
The unit may cause an explosion or a fire if used in the presence of such a gas.

Do not use ether, alcohol or other ignitable substances.


Even a small amount of ether, alcohol or other ignitable substances may cause a fire when mixed
with the oxygen in the incubator.

If water or any liquid should get into the unit, stop using the unit and re-
quest a repair service.
If the power supply should be short-circuited, it may cause the incubator to ignite or burn out. Chemical
fluids, having entered the unit, may stick to the incubator parts and cause abnormal operation of the
incubator.

Ground the unit securely.


Otherwise, a leakage current may cause an electric shock. In order to complete the ground connec-
tion, connect the power cord only to a properly grounded 3P power outlet including a ground termi-
nal. Do not operate the unit if you have any doubt about its ground connection.

Do not use a device generating high frequency near the unit.


To prevent malfunction of the unit due to jamming, do not use electric surgical knives, portable and
mobile communication equipment and other devices which generate high frequency near the unit
during its operation.

Analyze arterial gas levels repeatedly when a high oxygen environment is


required.
It is reported to be extremely important and essential, when the infant’s conditions call for a high
oxygen environment, to repeatedly analyze arterial gas levels in order to maintain the oxygen con-
centration in the incubator at a desired level. Follow the doctor’s instructions in measuring the oxy-
gen concentration because ignoring essential requirements may increase a risk of retinopathy of
prematurity and other adverse effects.

Do not give a shock to the unit or allow it to be struck by other objects.


The screws or fixed parts may become loose.

− 11 −
1-2. WARNING
Death or serious injury due to a fire or an electric shock will result if the instructions given below are not
followed.

Always maintain the incubator air temperature at a fixed level during the
standby.

Place the infant in the incubator only when the incubator air temperature
has stabilized.

Be sure to follow the doctor’s instructions in setting the incubator air tem-
perature.

Be sure to follow the doctor’s instructions in setting the oxygen concentra-


tion in the incubator.

Be sure to use oxygen intended for medical use.

Be sure to bear in mind the following precautions during oxygen supply.


쎲 Do not place a body warmer, a flashlight, oils and fats, or flammable vaporizable matters in the
incubator.
쎲 Use pure cotton for the infant’s clothing, bed sheets, etc. Do not use any material that is easily
charged with static electricity.
쎲 Use pure cotton or fire-proof materials for the clothing of doctors, nurses and those ambulance
men who handle this unit.

Bear in mind the following precautions while using oxygen supply equip-
ment.
쎲 If oil, grease or a grease-like substance should get in contact with pressurized oxygen, a violent
spontaneous ignition may occur. Do not let such substances stick to the oxygen pressure regula-
tor, the oxygen cylinder valve, piping, connections and other parts of oxygen supply equipment.
쎲 On a high-pressure oxygen cylinder, use only a tested pressure reducing valve or pressure regu-
lating valve indicated specifically for oxygen supply. Do not use such a valve for any gas other than
air or oxygen. It is dangerous to use a valve to supply a gas other than air or oxygen first and then
to supply oxygen again.

Smoking is prohibited in the room where the unit is installed. Do not place
any possible ignition sources in the room.

Avoid damaging the power cord.


A damaged power cord may cause a fire or an electric shock.
쎲 Do not pinch the power cord between the unit and the wall, a shelf or the floor.
쎲 Do not place the power cord near a heating apparatus or heat it.
쎲 Do not put anything heavy on the power cord.
쎲 Always grasp the power plug with your hand to remove the power cord from the power outlet.
A damaged power cord should be replaced immediately with a new one.

infant dangerously.

CAUTION

Place the infant in the incubator only after the incubator air temperature has stabilized.

Opening the front admittance panel or access ports, covering the infant with a sheet, or using an
oxygen headbox, etc. in the incubator will change the air circulation pattern inside the incubator.
This may affect the thermal uniformity, thermal changes, the detection and control of the incuba-
tor air temperature, and the infant’s skin temperature.

Avoid opening the entire hood to place the infant in the incubator. It will cause the incubator air
temperature to fluctuate greatly.

Never open the entire hood when the infant is in the incubator because the cords and tubes may
injure the infant. All procedures should be performed through the front admittance panel or the
access ports.

[6] Oxygen Supply
(1) Be sure to connect an oxygen flowmeter between
the oxygen supply source and the oxygen supply Oxygen flowmeter
port of the incubator. Turn the knob on the oxy- I.V. pole (option)
gen flowmeter and adjust the flow rate to a desired
level.
(2) The oxygen concentration in the incubator will Oxygen supply port
stabilize in about 30 minutes.
Increase the supply flow rate if the detected oxygen
concentration in the incubator is lower than the
desired level; decrease the supply flow rate if the
detected oxygen concentration in the incubator is
higher than the desired level.
Pay utmost attention to the changes in the oxygen
concentration in the incubator by monitoring it with
an oxygen monitor till it stabilizes.

쐽 Connecting the oxygen cylinder


To connect the oxygen cylinder, use the optional high pressure oxygen hose (for the V-505/pressure reducing
regulator) and the optional OX-231 pressure reducing regulator (for oxygen).

WARNING

Be sure to use an oxygen cylinder intended for medical use.

Be sure to connect an oxygen flowmeter between the oxygen supply source and the oxygen
supply port of the incubator.

Be sure to follow the doctor’s instructions in making decisions on oxygen supply.

Pay utmost attention to the oxygen concentration in the incubator during the oxygen supply.

Be sure to use oxygen intended for medical use.

Never supply humidified oxygen to the oxygen supply port. Supplying humidified oxygen by means
of a humidifying jar or other devices may damage the oxygen supply port of the incubator.

Pay utmost attention to the changes in the oxygen concentration in the incubator by monitoring
it continuously with an oxygen monitor. If the oxygen concentration in the incubator deviates
from a desired level, make necessary adjustments by increasing or decreasing the oxygen flow
rate.

Improper use of supplementary oxygen may cause serious side effects including loss of sight,
damage to the brain and death. The risk of side effects varies with infants. Follow the doctor's
instructions in selecting a desired method of oxygen administration, a desired oxygen concen-
tration and a desired duration of administration.

− 37 −
WARNING
The risk of a fire hazard increases when oxygen is used. Do not place auxiliary equipment which
may generate sparks where the incubator is installed.

If oil, grease or a grease-like substance should get in contact with pressurized oxygen, a violent
spontaneous ignition may occur. Do not let such substances stick to the oxygen pressure regu-
lator, the oxygen cylinder valve, piping, connections and other parts of oxygen supply equip-
ment.

When an oxygen flowmeter is not connected to the oxygen supply port, be sure to cover the port
with the cap supplied with the incubator to prevent dust from entering the port.

On a high pressure oxygen cylinder, use only a tested pressure reducing valve or pressure
regulating valve indicated specifically for oxygen supply.

Replace the old filter with a new one every two months in general. The dirtiness of the filter
varies with the degree of air pollution and the frequency of operation. Check the dirtiness of the
filter through the window of the filter cover. If the filter should be found discolored, replace it with
a new one even if the two-month interval is not over yet.

The oxygen flowmeter cannot be used to provide an accurate index of the oxygen concentration
in the incubator. The oxygen concentration should be checked with a calibrated oxygen monitor
or oxygen controller by following the doctor’s instructions.

The oxygen concentration in the incubator varies with the dirtiness of the filter, the operating
conditions of the incubator, the accuracy of the oxygen flowmeter, etc. To maintain the oxygen
concentration in the incubator accurately at a desired level, measure it repeatedly with an accu-
rate oxygen monitor.

Be sure to follow the doctor’s instructions in deciding an optimum oxygen concentration based
on PaO2 (a measured arterial oxygen partial pressure level). It is reported to be extremely im-
portant and essential, when a high oxygen environment is required, to measure the oxygen
concentration in the incubator and analyze arterial gas levels repeatedly, in order to determine a
desired oxygen concentration.

Cleaning or maintaining the incubator in a high oxygen environment may cause a fire or an
explosion. Before cleaning or maintaining the incubator, make sure that the oxygen supply has
been stopped and that the oxygen hose has been removed from the incubator. The oxygen
supply should be stopped or the oxygen hose should be removed from the incubator when it is
not in operation.

The oxygen concentration inside the incubator hood may be affected when an access port or the
front admittance panel is opened. Check that the access port packings and the tube introduction
slit packing are all attached securely. Any gap in the hood assembly may cause the oxygen
concentration in the incubator to drop.

Oxygen administration may increase the noise level to the infant in the incubator.

[10] Alarms and Alerts
(1) High temperature alarm
The high temperature alarm indicator will illuminate and an audible alarm will sound before the incubator
air temperature exceeds 39.0˚C. At the same time, the power supply to the heater will be shut off.
Action to take: The high temperature alarm can be reset by pressing the alarm silence/reset switch after
the incubator air temperature has fallen to a normal level.

(2) Fan alarm


If the fan for circulating the air in the incubator has stopped or isn’t attached properly, the fan alarm
indicator will illuminate and an audible alarm will sound. At the same time, the power supply to the heater
will be shut off.
Action to take: Eliminate all the causes. After checking that the fan rotates normally, start the operation
again.

(3) Power failure alarm


If the power supply is interrupted during the operation, the power failure alarm indicator will illuminate
and an audible alarm will sound.
Action to take: Check the power source, connections, and the breaker.
Eliminate all the causes and start the operation again.

(4) Set point alarm


If a displayed incubator air temperature deviates from the set temperature by 3˚C or more, the set point
alarm indicator will illuminate and an audible alarm will sound. The power supply to the heater will be shut
off if the displayed incubator air temperature exceeds the set temperature by 3˚C or more. It will not be
shut off if the displayed incubator air temperature falls below the set temperature by 3˚C or more. At this
time, the audible alarm can be silenced temporarily by pressing the alarm silence/reset switch.
The set point alarm will not activate for 30 minutes after the power is applied. However, the set point alarm
will activate even during the first 30 minutes once the incubator air temperature has reached the set
temperature 3˚C.
Action to take: Check whether an air outlet, an air inlet or the incubator air temperature sensor is cov-
ered with sheets or other materials. If no trouble is found with the above items, the incu-
bator should be regarded as out of order. Stop using the incubator and contact your local
Atom representative.

(5) Silence alarm


If the set point alarm is silenced by pressing the alarm silence/reset switch, the alarm silence indicator
will illuminate to indicate visually that the audible alarm is silenced. If another alarm should occur while
the audible alarm is silenced, the audible alarm will be reset automatically and begin to sound. The audible
alarm will stop automatically when the alarm condition is over. If the alarm condition should continue for
15 minutes or longer, the audible alarm will sound again.

− 49 −
(6) System failure alarm
If a wire of the high temperature sensor or the incubator air temperature sensor gets broken or short-
circuited, the system failure alarm indicator will illuminate, an error message will appear on the incubator
air temperature display and an audible alarm will sound. At the same time, the power supply to the heater
will be shut off.
In this case, the audible alarm cannot be silenced by pressing the alarm silence/reset switch. Turn the
power off and start the operation again.
Action to take: When a system failure has occurred, the cause of the trouble can be roughly identified by
checking the error message on the incubator air temperature display. If the error mes-
sage is [ ], [ ], [ ] or [ ], the possible cause is a failure of the incubator
air temperature sensor or the sensor module. Turn the power off and check the connec-
tion of the sensor module. If the error message is [ ] or [ ], the possible cause is
a failure of the relay board or the heater. If the error message is [ ] or [ ], the
possible cause is a failure of the main board. If the same alarm message continues to be
displayed, stop using the incubator and contact your local Atom representative.

(7) Skin temperature probe alarm


If any trouble should occur to the skin temperature probe, the skin temperature display will flash and an
audible alert will sound.
Action to take: A wire of the skin temperature sensor may have got broken or short-circuited. Replace
the skin temperature probe with a new one.

(8) Low voltage alarm


If the supply voltage to the main body should drop while the unit is being powered, an appropriate power
indicator will flash and an audible alert will sound every 15 seconds.
Action to take: When the power pack or the external DC power source is being used to power the unit,
connect the power pack to the AC power source. (The battery charge level of the power
pack may have decreased. Recharge the power pack for at least 20 hours.)

(9) Power pack alarm


If a problem occurs with the battery, the battery charge level indicator on the power pack will automati-
cally flash red in warning.
Action to take: Replace the battery, as this may be due to battery deterioration. When this alarm occurs,
stop using the unit and contact your local Atom representative.
