1. The MiniACE Button should be replaced periodically for optimal performance. If in place for three months or longer,
frequent performance checks are recommended. Clogging and/or reduced flow are indications of diminished perfor-
mance. Refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section for additional signs of reduced performance or failure.
2. Be sure the balloon is within the colon and the MiniACE
or saline into the irrigation port to determine proper function of the valve.
3. The stoma area should be cleansed daily with a mild soap and water. The stoma site should be clean and dry at all
®
times. The MiniACE
WARNING: This device has the potential to misconnect with small bore connectors of other healthcare applica-

1. Inspect contents for damage. If damaged, do not use. Obtain another package.
2. The irrigation set may be used for gravity irrigation/enema.
3. Ensure the clamp is closed and attach the irrigation set to the MiniACE
set connector with the dark line of the interlock on the MiniACE
®
the MiniACE Button. Turn 3/4 to the right (clock-wise) to lock the irrigation set into place.
4. Attach the opposite end of the irrigation set to the connector being used. If using a bolus or luer connector, firmly insert
the connector while using a slight rotation into the irrigation set to lock in place. If using a rotating connector, firmly
rotate the connector clockwise into the irrigation set while avoiding excessive force to lock in place. Once connected,
open the clamp to allow flow.
WARNING: Only tighten by hand. Never use excessive force or a tool to tighten a rotating connector. Improper use
can lead to cracking, leakage, or other failure.
WARNING: Ensure device is connected to an irrigation port only and NOT to an IV set.
WARNING: If the irrigation set is not properly placed and locked, leakage may occur. When twisting the connector
®
hold the MiniACE Button in place to avoid rotation while placing the irrigation set. Never insert irrigation set
connector into the balloon inflation port. This may cause the internal balloon to deflate or lead to balloon failure if
improper contents are inserted into the balloon.
5. When irrigation is complete, flush with 5-10ml water (if not using water for irrigation). Close the clamp to prevent leakage
while removing the irrigation set. Remove the irrigation set by holding the MiniACE
connector, twist 3/4 turn to the left(counter clock-wise) to unlock, and gently remove the irrigation set from the MiniACE
Button. Snap the MiniACE
6. The irrigation set should be cleansed with soap and water and thoroughly rinsed. Store in a clean, dry place. Never use
a dishwasher for cleaning.
WARNING: In case of fever, abdominal distention, infection, blockage, or tissue necrosis, patients should see their
physician immediately.
WARNING: Do not place any foreign objects into the irrigation port.
WARNING: If using a transition connector, ensure that it is not connected to an IV set prior to use.
WARNING: When using a bolus style irrigation set, this device has the potential to misconnect to breathing sys-
tem, limb cuff, and neuraxial connectors.

Note: The ENFit connection is intended to reduce misconnections with other non-enteral healthcare applications.
First check to make sure that the tube is not kinked or clamped anywhere. If there is a visible clog in the tubing, attempt to
massage the device to break up the clog. Connect a catheter tip syringe to an irrigation set and attach into the interlock
connector. Fill the syringe with warm water and gently push and pull the syringe plunger to free the clog. It may take sever-
al cycles of pushing / pulling the plunger to clear the clog. If clog cannot be removed, contact your healthcare professional,
as the tube may need to be replaced.
CAUTION: Do not use excessive force or pressure to attempt to clear the clog. This can cause the tubing to rup-
ture.
