Setting Ramp

Ramp time

Ramp time is a feature that can be enabled by your clinician by setting a maximum ramp time. Designed to make the beginning of treatment more comfortable, ramp time is the period during which the pressure increases from a low start pressure to the treatment pressure. See “Setup menu: Options” on page 16.

Using mask-fit

You can use mask-fit to help you fit your mask properly. This feature delivers constant treatment pressure for a three-minute period, prior to starting treatment, during which you can check and adjust your mask-fit to minimise leaks. The mask-fit pressure is the set CPAP or EPAP pressure or 10 cm H2O, whichever is greater.

1Put the mask on according to the mask user guide.

2Hold down for at least three seconds until pressure delivery starts.

3If necessary adjust the mask, mask cushion and headgear until you have a good mask fit. After three minutes treatment will begin. Mask-fit can be stopped at any time by pressing . Notes:

Press for at least three seconds during mask-fit to start the treatment immediately.

The mask-fitting feature is disabled when the mask type Trach is selected.

Availability of this feature is country dependent.
