Mobile use

The Stellar Mobility bag allows the Stellar to be used in mobile situations, eg, in a wheelchair. For setup and correct use, see the Stellar Mobility Bag User Guide. For extended mobile use, the ResMed Power Station II external power supply unit can be used as an additional power source. Limitations apply to the use of oxygen with the Stellar Mobility Bag. For more information, contact your local ResMed representative.

Setting up for noninvasive use

WARNING

• The air filter cover protects the device in the event of accidental liquid spillage onto the device. Ensure that the air filter and air filter cover are fitted at all times.

•Make sure that all the air inlets at the rear of the device and under the device and vents at the masks or at the leak port are unobstructed. If you put the device on the floor, make sure the area is free from dust and clear of bedding, clothes or other objects that could block the air inlets.

•Hoses or tubes must be non-conductive and antistatic.

•Do not leave long lengths of the air tubing or the cable for the finger pulse sensor around the top of your bed. It could twist around your head or neck while you are sleeping.

CAUTION

• Be careful not to place the device where it can be bumped or where someone is likely to trip over the power cord.

•Make sure the area around the device is dry and clean.

Notes:

•ResMed recommends using the AC power cord supplied with the unit. If a replacement power cord is required, contact your ResMed Service Centre.

•Place the device on a flat surface near the head of the bed.
