4. Ensure that the tubing is not twisted and insert the safety clamp* on the pumping mechanism into the lower recess, with the arrow pointing into the Alaris® Pump module. (Remember, you do not have to manually close the safety clamp on the pumping mechanism.)

5. Using your fingertip, firmly push the tubing toward the back of the Air-in-Line Detector.

6. While grasping the Alaris® Pump module housing, gently close the door and then lower the latch. Open the roller clamp and verify that no fluid is flowing through the drip chamber.

WARNING: Ensure that there are no foreign objects (IV tubing, etc.) obstructing the door. Do not touch the set tubing or upper fitment while closing the door. Failure to follow this instruction may result in infusion rate inaccuracy.
