could be compromised.
Press the Alarm Silence Button on the front panel. This action temporarily silences all
audible alarms for 90 seconds. Alarm Silence Indicator lights during a temporary silence
period.
1. Press the Alarm Silence Button to immediately silence the alarm tone. (Alarm
silence period default-90 seconds later, the alarm resumes if the alarm condition
has not been corrected.)
2. Check the patient and provide appropriate care.
If the Alarm Silence Button is pressed during the alarm silence, the alarm silence is
ended and the audible alarms are re-enabled.
Note: Visual indications of an alarm condition cannot be turned off. For example, if
the %SpO2 low alarm limit is exceeded, the audible alarm can be silenced for the

condition is terminated.
