•Supplemental oxygen must not be used while smoking or in the presence of an open flame.
•Always make sure that the device is turned on and airflow generated before the oxygen supply is turned on. Always turn the oxygen supply off before the device is turned off, so that unused oxygen does not accumulate within the device enclosure and create a risk of fire.
•Do not perform any maintenance tasks while the device is in operation.
•The device should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment. If adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the device should be observed to verify normal operation in the configuration in which it will be used.
•The use of accessories other than those specified for the device is not recommended. They may result in increased emissions or decreased immunity of the device.
•Regularly check the antibacterial filter for signs of moisture or other contaminants, particularly during nebulization or humidification. Failure to do so could result in increased breathing system resistance.
CAUTION
•Use only ResMed parts and accessories with the device. Non-ResMed parts may reduce the effectiveness of the treatment and/or damage the device.
•Use only vented masks recommended by ResMed or by the prescribing doctor with this device. Fitting the mask without the device blowing air can result in rebreathing of exhaled air. Make sure that the mask vent holes are kept clear and unblocked to maintain the flow of the fresh air into the mask.
•Be careful not to place the device where it can be bumped or where someone is likely to trip over the power cord.
•Blocking the air tubing and/or air inlet of the device while in operation could lead to overheating of the device.
•Keep the area around the device dry, clean and clear of anything (eg, clothes or bedding) that could block the air inlet or cover the power supply unit.
•Do not place the device on its side as water might get into the device.
•Incorrect system setup may result in incorrect mask pressure reading. Ensure the system is correctly set up.
•Do not use bleach, chlorine, alcohol, or aromatic-based solutions, moisturising or antibacterial soaps or scented oils to clean the device, the humidifier or air tubing. These solutions may cause damage or affect the humidifier performance and reduce the life of the products. Exposure to smoke, including cigarette, cigar or pipe smoke, as well as ozone or other gases, may damage the device. Damage caused by any of the foregoing, will not be covered by ResMed's limited warranty.
•If you use the humidifier, always place the device on a level surface lower than your head to prevent the mask and air tubing from filling with water.
•Leave the humidifier to cool for ten minutes before handling to allow the water to cool and to make sure that the humidifier is not too hot to touch.
