WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
Warnings:
RESMED
•
•
The humidifier is for single-person use only.
RESMED PASSOVER HUMIDIFIER
Do not allow water from the humidifier to spill through the air
tubing into the flow generator as this could result in electrical
shock hazard and may damage the unit. To prevent this:
HOW THE RESMED PASSOVER HUMIDIFIER WORKS
-
-
do not overfill the humidifier
disconnect the air tubing from the flow generator when not
in use
The ResMed Passover Humidifier relieves the symptoms of
a dry nose and throat which some people experience during
Continuous and Variable Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP
and VPAP) treatment. It is for use with ResMed CPAP and
VPAP systems.
-
-
do not fill the humidifier while it is attached to the flow
generator
only use the humidifier when it is sitting underneath the
flow generator.
The ResMed Passover Humidifier is a water filled
container which fits underneath your flow generator. Air
from the flow generator passes over the water before being
delivered to you through your mask in the usual way. The
air picks up moisture from the water which makes it more
comfortable to breathe.
•
•
If water does enter the flow generator, switch off the power and
disconnect the flow generator. Return it to your equipment
supplier for inspection.
Always use the outlet connector - it is designed to help prevent
water from entering the air tubing that leads to your mask.
Cautions:
Your humidifier kit contains:
•
Do not use bleach, chlorine-, alcohol-, or aromatic-based
solutions to clean the humidifier. These solutions may damage or
otherwise reduce the life of the product.
•
Do not use a mixture of vinegar and disinfectant to clean the
humidifier.
