CAUTION!
During Surgery, do not partially open the stopcock(s) on the dual stopcock can-
nula, as this may lead to overpressure within the joint. Each stopcock must be
completely open or completely closed.
Do not position both stopcocks on the dual stopcock cannula to be in the open
position at the same time, as this may lead to overpressure within the joint.
(Note: This warning does not apply to dedicated inflow/outflow cannulas).To
prevent overpressure within the joint:
• When the inflow stopcock is open, ensure that the outflow stopcock is closed.
• When the outflow stopcock is open, ensure that the inflow stopcock is closed.

To improve visibility within the joint, activate the "Wash" function.
• The "Wash time" can be set for 10 to 30 seconds at intervals of 5 (see 7 "User
Menu").
• The pressure increase is adjustable from 10-100% but is also limited to a max.
value of 150 mm Hg (factory setting = 50%).
• The flow increase amounts to 0.5 l/min, limited to a max. of 3 l/min.
1. While the device is running, press the "Wash" function field (Fig. 5-1 "Device
1.5
front", (12)) on the touch panel.

The pump automatically returns to the previously set operating values after the
specified "Wash time" has expired.
To end the "Wash" function before the set time expires, press the "Wash" func-
tion field of the touch panel again. This returns the pump immediately to the pre-
viously set operating values.

To improve visibility within the joint when using a shaver, activate the "Turbo"
function. This is helpful under difficult surgical conditions such as the so-called
SAD (subacromial arthroscopic decompression).
CAUTION!
The "Turbo" function is not designed for arthroscopies in small joints.
• The "Turbo time" is 2 minutes and can be stopped any time.
• The flow increase amounts to 0.5 l/min and is depicted in the max. flow rate
display (Fig. 5-1 "Device front", (9)).
• The "Turbo" function cannot be activated as long as the "Wash" function is
used.
• The "Wash" function cannot be activated as long as the "Turbo" function is
