3. To reduce the risks associated with air embolism and incorrect routing of fluids:
• Never infuse fluids if air bubbles are present in the fluid line.
• Ensure all luer connections are tightened.
4. Do not mount the Ranger blood fluid warming system higher than patient level during infusion, as air embolism may result.
5. To reduce the risks associated with potential blood loss, do not use in combination with an extracorporeal circuit.

CAUTION:

1. To reduce the risks associated with cross-contamination:
• The cleaning tool provides only superficial cleaning, it does not disinfect or sterilize the interior of the unit.
2. To reduce the risks associated with impact and facility medical device damage:
• Clamp the Ranger blood/fluid warming unit to an I.V. pole with a minimum 14" (35.6 cm) radius wheelbase and at a height no higher than 44" (112 cm).
3. To reduce the risks associated with environmental contamination:
• Follow applicable regulations when disposing of this device or any of its electronic components.
4. Do not use for direct cardiac application. When using the Ranger blood/fluid warming system with a central venous catheter (CVC), ensure that the catheter
tip does not have direct contact with the heart and ensure that all electrical devices connected to or near the patient have an appropriate leakage current
rating for the application. If a CVC tip is found to be in direct contact with a patient's heart, the blood/fluid warming unit, Model 245 should be immediately
disconnected from the CVC until the CVC is safely repositioned. Failure to follow these precautions may cause cardiac disturbance and/or patient injury.
5. Follow the AABB Guidelines for the use of blood warming devices which caution against warming when administering platelets, cryoprecipitate, or
granulocyte suspensions.
6. The 3M Ranger blood/fluid warming system has been tested to be resistant to both electromagnetic fields (EMI) and electrostatic discharge (ESD). To
reduce the risk associated with EMI due to portable and mobile RF communications equipment:
• Install and put into service the 3M Ranger blood/fluid warming system according to the EMC information provided in the Guidance and
Manufacturer's Declaration.
• Should interference occur move away from the portable or mobile RF communications equipment.

NOTICE:

1. To avoid device damage:
• Do not clean the blood/fluid warming unit with solvents. Damage to the case, label, and internal components may result.
• Do not immerse the blood/fluid warming unit in cleaning or sterilizing solutions. The unit is not liquid proof.
• Do not insert metallic instruments in the blood/fluid warming unit.
• Do not use abrasive materials or solutions to clean the heater plates.
• Do not allow spills to dry inside the unit, as this may make it more difficult to clean the unit.
2. The Ranger blood/fluid warming unit meets medical electronic interference requirements. If radio frequency interference with other equipment should
occur, connect the unit to a different power source.

Overview and Operation

The 3M Ranger blood/fluid warming system consists
TM TM
of a Model 245 warming unit and a sterile disposable fluid
warming set.
The warming unit is a compact, lightweight, liquid-resistant
device with a clamp located on the side for attachment to
an I.V. pole (see Figure 1). A carrying handle on the top of
the unit makes it easy to transport.
Located on the front panel you will find:
• Alphanumeric display that indicates the heater
temperature during normal operation. In an
over-temperature condition, the display alternately flashes
a temperature of 43°C or higher and the word "HI."
An audible alert also sounds. In an under-temperature
condition, the display alternately flashes a temperature of
33°C or lower and the word "LO."
• Alert indicator light that comes on when either an
over- or under-temperature condition occurs.
