Introduction
Operator's Responsibility for Patient Safety
For correct and effective use of the product and in
order to avoid hazards, it is mandatory to carefully
read and to observe all portions of this manual.
The design of the equipment, the accompanying
literature, and the labeling on the equipment take into
consideration that the purchase and use of the
equipment are restricted to trained professionals, and
that certain inherent characteristics of the equipment
are known to the trained operator. Instructions,
warnings, and caution statements are limited, therefore,
largely to the specifics of the Dräger design. This
publication excludes references to various hazards
which are obvious to a medical professional and
operator of this equipment, to the consequences of
product misuse, and to potentially adverse effects in
patients with abnormal conditions. Product modification
or misuse can be dangerous. Dräger, Inc. disclaims all
liability for the consequences of product alterations or
modifications, as well as for the consequences which
might result from the combination of this product with
other products whether supplied by Dräger or by other
manufacturers if such a combination is not endorsed by
Dräger, Inc..
The operators of the incubator system must recognize
their responsibility for choosing appropriate safety
monitoring that supplies adequate information on equip-
ment performance and patient condition. Patient safety
may be achieved through a wide variety of different
means ranging from electronic surveillance of
equipment performance and patient condition to simple,
direct observation of clinical signs. The responsibility
for the selection of the best level of patient monitoring
lies solely with the equipment operator.

rooms. (e.g., IEC 601.1, "Safety of Medical
Equipment).
To maintain grounding integrity, connect only
to a "hospital grade" receptacle. Always
disconnect supply before servicing.
WARNING !
Strictly follow this Operator's Instruction
Manual!
Any use of the product requires full
understanding and strict observation of all
portions of these instructions. The equipment
is only to be used for the purpose specified
under "Intended Use" (see page 12). Observe
all WARNINGS and CAUTIONS as rendered
throughout this manual and on labels on the
equipment.
General WARNINGS and
CAUTIONS Introduction
7
Operating Instructions Incubator 8000 IC
WARNING !
Keep space above the incubator clear of
obstruction!
Nothing must be kept below the stroge
cabinets. Hoses, circuits, and cables must be
long enough for the height of the incubator
being adjusted. They must be routed in a way
that no kinking, disconnection or squeezing
can occure.

Precautions During Operation
Temperature
WARNING !
Do not cover phototherapy lights or incubator
hood with blankets, aluminum foil, or other
materials intended to boost the effect of
phototherapy. This could result in a build-up
of heat in the incubator. - Danger of
overheating patient!
WARNING !
Additional external heat sources, such as
sunlight, heat lamps, spot lamps, heated
pads, etc. should be avoided. They increase
air temperature inside the incubator in an
uncontrolled fashion.
WARNING !
Temperatures above 37 °C may only be used
on the order of a physician.
In this mode of operation, the baby´s
temperature must be monitored especially
carefully.
WARNING !
Always check baby's core temperature at
regular intervals!
WARNING !
Never leave baby unattended when front door
or hand ports are open to avoid any risk of a
patient falling out of the incubator.
Precautions During Preparation
Readiness for Operation
Load Limits for Storage Options
CAUTION !
Maximum load attached to rail must not exceed
25 kg (55 lbs).
WARNING !
The incubator is ready for operation only when
all checks have been performed successfully.
Introduction Precautions During Preparation
Precautions During Operation

Operating Instructions Incubator 8000 IC

Fire hazards associated with the use of oxygen
Physiological risks associated with the use of oxygen
Humidification System
WARNING !
Use only pure, distilled or demineralized
water. Do not add bactericidal agents.
WARNING !
Oxygen Concentration
The atmosphere inside the incubator should
only be enriched with oxygen by or on the
order of a physician or respiratory therapist.
It is absolutely essential that elevated oxygen
concentrations are selected on the basis of
arterially measured oxygen partial pressure in
the blood of the baby. This is the only way to
minimize the risk of both hyperoxemia, which
might cause, above all, retrolenta fibroplasia,
and hypoxemia which might contribute to
intraventricular hemorrhage and damage to
the baby's brain.
WARNING !
Fire Hazard!
Keep matches, lighted cigarettes, and all
other sources of ignition out of the room in
which the incubator is located. Textiles, oils,
and other combustibles are easily ignited and
burn with great intensity in an atmosphere
enriched with oxygen.
All oxygen valves, connections, and seals
must be kept free from oil and grease. - Open
valves slowly.
Do not use any electrical equipment inside the
incubator other than equipment and
instruments expressly designed and approved
for use in incubators.
Skin Temperature Control
WARNING !
Do not use skin temperature sensors to
rectally measure core temperature.
WARNING !
A displaced or detached skin temperature
sensor would be measuring air temperature
so that the baby could become overheated
(the temperature of the air in the incubator
would, however, not exceed 39 °C).
WARNING !
The sensor probe must never be placed under
the baby. It would be measuring and attempt-
ing to control core temperature rather than
skin temperature in this case.
WARNING !
Always verify that single use sensor probe is
specified and approved for use with Dräger
Series 8000 incubators.
WARNING !
Skin temperature control must not be used
with babies in shock. Because of reduced
peripheral bloodflow the skin temperature of
these babies occasionally lies below the core
body temperature. Using a skin temperature
control system could lead to overheating. We
recommend operating the incubator in air
temperature control mode when caring for
patients with such conditions.
Precautions During Operation Introduction

Operating Instructions Incubator 8000 IC

Precautions During Maintenance
CAUTION !
For disposal of batteries, follow all local, state,
and federal legislation with respect to
environmental protection.
WARNING !
Preventive Maintenance work on the Incubator
8000 IC may be performed by trained and
factory authorized staff only.
WARNING !
Treatment of batteries
- Do not throw into fire! risk of explosion
- Do not force open! cells contain
corrosive acid
WARNING !
Never operate the incubator if it has suffered
physical damage or does not seem to operate
properly. In this case always refer servicing to
properly trained and factory authorized service
personnel.
WARNING !
Always disconnect supply before servicing.
WARNING !
To avoid risk of infection, clean and disinfect
incubator and accessories before any
maintenance according to established hospital
procedures - this applies also when returning
units or parts for repair.
Precautions During Care
CAUTION !
Certain components of the incubator consist of
materials that are sensitive to certain organic
solvents sometimes used for cleaning and
disinfecting (e.g., alcohols, phenols, halogen
releasing compounds, oxygen releasing
compounds, strong organic acids, etc.). Exposure
to such substances may cause damage that is not
always immediately recognized. Do not sterilize
incubator and its components with ethylene oxide
(EtO) or by exposure to UV radiation (may cause
cracks in the PMMA (Plexiglas) parts!
WARNING !
Danger of burn injury
The exposed heater surface will still be very
hot after operation. It may take up to one hour
for the temperature to drop to 70 °C (158 °F)
with the incubator closed.
WARNING !
Always disconnect from power before
cleaning and disinfecting.
WARNING !
Always follow established hospital procedures
for handling equipment contaminated with
bodily fluids.
