Step 3
- After the oxygen hose has been disconnected, the air hose will be disconnected as well.
- The air line may have a compressor hose, like this unit, which will need to be removed before the air fitting can be removed.
- Once this is done, you can look through both openings with a flashlight for debris. If there is debris, move onto the next step. Otherwise, you should reinstall the hoses to the machine and the wall

Step 4
- Open both shut-off valves.
- Verify that the inspiratory outlet is open to atmosphere (not plugged).
- On the VCB screen:
- Verify that the Air and O2 Flow Valves are energized ().
- Set the Air DAC counts to 60,000 (fully open).
- Set the O2 DAC counts to 60,000 (fully open).
Open both shut-off valves.

Set the O2 DAC counts to 60,000 (fully open).
Step 5
- After 20 seconds:
- Close both shut-off valves. Pulse the Air and O2 flow valves 5 times for 5 seconds.
- Set the Air DAC counts to zero (closed).
- Set the O2 DAC counts to zero (closed).
- Note: Closing the shut-off valves before setting the flow DAC counts to zero, bleeds pressure from the system.
