7. For service or for technical information, please contact Customer Service (Section XI).
8. Do not open the main housing, as there are no user-serviceable parts inside. Opening may affect function of device and voids
the warranty. To replace battery, see Section VIII.
9. Dispose of old battery-powered electronic equipment in a manner consistent with institutional policy for expired
equipment disposal.
10. Cleaning frequency and practices must be consistent with institutional policy for cleaning of non-sterile devices. See Section VII
- Cleaning, for instructions on cleaning the Kangaroo™ Joey enteral feed and flush pump with pole clamp.
11. See icon descriptions in Section III - Icon Identification and Section X - Specifications and Symbols for additional
safety information.
12. This device is designed to minimize the effects of uncontrolled electromagnetic interference and other types of interference
from external sources. Avoid use of other equipment that may cause erratic operation or degradation in the performance
of this device.
13. Warning: The serial I/O port (see Figure 1A) is intended only for use by the manufacturer or trained service technician.
Covidien is not responsible for any changes attempted or made to the system using an unauthorized connection.
14. Caution: This enteral feeding pump should only be used for patients who can tolerate the flow rates and accuracy levels
delivered by the pump. Premature infants may require higher accuracy rates than specified for this enteral feeding pump.
For optimal accuracy, the top of the starting volume of formula should be 6 inches above the pump, do not reuse
feeding sets and avoid overstretching the silicone that wraps around the pump rotor.
15. Do not attempt to rotate the valve stem inside the feeding set valve assembly. Rotation of the valve stem can only be done by
the pump while the valve assembly is properly loaded into the pump.
16. Should feeding sets require rinsing, it is recommended that the feeding sets be rinsed while they are loaded in the pump.
17. Used feeding sets should be disposed of in accordance with current hospital procedure or local disposal guidelines.
18. The Kangaroo™ Joey enteral feed and flush pump with pole clamp has been programmed to optimize accuracy by
taking into account the viscosity of formula. Formula that has been diluted and has a low viscosity will tend to
deliver like water and thus deliver to the high side of the accuracy specification.
19. Caution: Ensure buzzer hole is unobstructed during normal operation so as to allow clear recognition of alarm.
20. Caution: The battery cells used in this device may present a fire or chemical hazard if mistreated. Do not disassemble, heat
above 100°C (212°F), or incinerate.
21. Danger: Strangulation Hazard. Avoid leaving power adapter wires, feeding set tubing or other choking hazards where infants
or young children can become caught. If these objects get wrapped around a child's neck, strangulation and death can occur.
22. Danger: The pump and disposable feeding set all contain small parts which could become detached and pose a choking
hazard. Some of these components could be inhaled or swallowed by a small child, toddler, or infant, which could result in
suffocation and death. Keep all small components out of reach of small children.
23. Danger: Explosion Hazard. Do not use the pump in the presence of flammable anesthetics. Flammable anesthetics can ignite
due to a spark within the unit, which could result in fire or explosion.
24. Danger: Do not power the pump while plugged into a power outlet above 2000m altitude, especially while on an airplane
or other air vehicle. Do not attempt to charge the pump battery above 2000m altitude. Failure to comply could result in
overheating, fire, or explosion of the internal rechargeable battery pack. Run the pump only using the internal pump battery
power in these situations.
25. Caution: Do not store the pump or power adapter at temperatures >50ºC (122ºF). This can damage the equipment sensors,
which will prevent the pump from operating under normal conditions.
