Lack of lubrication can destroy the parts, especially the tongue part, but can also make the
face piece separate from the tongue part.
Silicone oil or Silicone spray must not be used as the parts can become sticky and almost
impossible to clean. The facemask must not be removed by the user. Disassembly should
only take place during service or repair.
6.3 Compression ⑧
External chest compression can be practised, and the depth of compression will be
displayed on the monitoring instrument in millimetres. It is possible to adjust the stiffness of
the chest to simulate a patient with a soft, normal or hard chest.
To ensure that the correct point of compression is applied during chest compression, the
instrument also provides indication of incorrect hand positioning, see 8.1.
The carotid pulse can be felt on both sides of the neck if simulated manually by the
instructor, see 8.2.
7. Cleaning
7.1 Cleaning of skull, neck and body
The skull, face piece, neck and body can be wiped over with a cloth moistened in a mild
detergent and then wiped over once more using a cloth moistened in clean water.
When washing, never allow detergent or water to enter the skull, body or instrument unit.
If necessary, cover the connection between body and instrument unit with a cloth.
Marks on the manikin left by lipstick or ball pen can penetrate the material and should
therefore be removed as quickly as possible using alcohol.
7.2 Cleaning of clothing
The tracksuit is made of 50 % cotton and 50 % polyester and is washable at max. 40° C (104° F).
7.3. Cleaning of carry bag
The carry bag can be washed in a mild detergent using a cloth or soft brush, rinsed in
dean water, and then dried off.
8. Computer connection (only Airway Man W)
For more advanced instruction is the manikin equipped with digital sensors to record the
performance of the CPR. The performance can be recorded and displayed on a computer
using the Ambu CPR-Software.
To connect the manikin to a computer the CPR-Software has to be installed on the
computer. The connections can be established by using a USB cable or by using Wireless
LAN (WLAN).
Further detailed information about the functionality of the computer program can be
found in the Directions for use for the Ambu CPR Software.
