Method
1.
Insert the Hot Dog Controller’s power plug into a properly grounded hospital-grade electrical
outlet and confirm that NO cables or blankets are connected to any of the Controller’s ports.
2.
Turn the Mains Power Switch to ON and observe for the following proper start-up sequence:
a.
The Alarm LED’s will power up sequentially
b.
The Segmented displays then power up sequentially one by one, from left to right as
the number “8”
3.
After the LED’s sequence, the buzzer will give a short chirp and the software version will
display for approximately 2 seconds.
4.
After the sequence completes, only the Mains Power ON Light will remain illuminated.
5.
If this sequence varies or is incomplete, contact Customer Service (see
page 14

Cleaning
—
General
Warnings
•
DO NOT use a dripping wet cloth to clean Hot Dog components, and DO NOT immerse Hot
Dog components in liquid. Moisture will damage the components, and thermal injury may
result.
Precautions
•
DO NOT use pure harsh solvents (e.g., MEK, acetone, etc.) to clean Hot Dog components.
Solvents may damage plastic parts, labeling and product finish.
•
DO NOT use high-level disinfectants (e.g., gluteraldehyde, peracetic acid). The U.S. Centers
for Disease Control (CDC) recommends against the use of high-level disinfectants for
cleaning environmental surfaces that may contact the patient since the chemicals are highly
toxic.
•
DO NOT spray cleaning solutions into electrical connectors.
Recommended cleaners
Alcohol-based disinfectants are easiest to use, since they are fast-acting and can be either sprayed
or wiped on.
Other cleaners that have been tested and are compatible with the outer surfaces of Hot Dog
components include sodium hypochlorite (diluted bleach), phenolic germicidal detergent,
quaternary ammonium detergent and chlorhexidine. Cleaners that contain accelerated hydrogen
peroxide (Accel, Rescue, Prevail) are NOT recommended for cleaning.
