How to change the ramp time

During ramp time, the pressure increases from a low pressure to the prescribed treatment pressure. You can set the ramp time in 5-minute intervals, from 0 minutes (OFF) up to a maximum ramp time set by your clinician. The standby screen displays the current ramp time in the right corner.

1.Press or until the desired ramp time appears.

2.Once a ramp time is selected, begin therapy by pressing .

When ramping begins the LCD will display the word "RAMPING", with the current pressure indicated as dashes. Each dash is approximately equivalent

to 2 cm H2O. For example, six dashes represents approximately 12 cm H2O pressure.

How to change the EPR level

EPR can be used to help ease any discomfort you may experience when breathing out during treatment. If your clinician has allowed access you can change the EPR level. There are four settings: OFF; 1 (lowest EPR); 2; and 3 (highest EPR).
