Attaching a HumidAire Humidifier

Please refer to the illustrations in section G of the illustration sheet.

Medium size (52 cm) air tubing is a necessary accessory for connecting the VPAP unit to the HumidAire humidifier.

To set up the VPAP with the HumidAire:

1.Fill the HumidAire with water as described in the humidifier manual.

2.Place the filled water chamber inside the HumidAire. Connect the medium (52 cm) air tubing to the right connector port, and the long air tubing (2 m or 3 m) to the left connector port on the humidifier (G-1). Close the HumidAire lid.

3.Place the VPAP on top of the HumidAire (G-2). Do not place the VPAP unit underneath the humidifier. (This is to avoid water spilling into the unit.)

4.Connect the free end of the medium air tubing to the air outlet of the VPAP (G-3).

5.Connect the mask system to the free end of the long air tubing. The final assembly should look like figure G-4.

6.Plug the HumidAire power cord into a power outlet.

7.If the VPAP is not already plugged in, see Step 2 on page 7.

WARNING

! Make sure that the power cord and plug are in good condition and the equipment is not damaged.

8. Navigate to the humidifier setting (if available) in the VPAP menu and select "HUMIDAIRE". See “How to Use the Detailed Menu (if enabled by your clinician)” on page 20.
