WARNING
Before loading the disposable set, inspect the cassette and
tubing for damage. Using damaged sets can result in
contamination of the fluid or fluid pathways.
Contamination of any portion of the fluid or fluid path can
result in peritonitis.
Inspect the flexible surfaces of the cassette for obvious
signs of damage, including cuts, tears, or punctures.
Ensure the tip protectors on the ends of the tubing are
on and unbroken.
If damage is found, obtain a new disposable set and repeat
