When using a humidifier, stop the VPAP Adapt SV by using the Start/Stop key or

by removing the mask to trigger the SmartStop function. Do not switch the VPAP Adapt SV off at the power switch or the power source while it is running, as

this could result in condensation in the motor.

Please refer to the relevant humidifier user manual for detailed instructions and warnings.

CAUTIONS

! Be very careful not to allow water to enter the VPAP Adapt SV as this could affect therapy and/or damage the device.

Do not tip the humidifier while it is connected to the VPAP Adapt SV. If water enters the VPAP Adapt SV device, turn off the main power switch at the back of the unit and unplug it from the power outlet. Return the unit to your equipment supplier for checking.

Connecting a Humidifier

Note: After connecting or removing a humidifier, always perform the Air Circuit Learn function (see page 22).

WARNING

! When using a humidifier, position it so that it is lower than your head will be during sleep, and at the same level or lower than the VPAP Adapt SV.
