Substitute the following step for step 1 of the standard installation procedure:

•Connect the oxygen adaptor onto the device’s outlet connector and connect the other end of the adaptor onto the nozzle of the patient tubing.

Figure 6 – Connecting the oxygen adaptor to the device

You can then repeat steps 2 to 6 of the standard installation to continue installing the equipment.

WARNINGS

•Always follow the instructions of the medical team or home care provider in the event of using oxygen.

•Do not smoke in the presence of oxygen.

•Do not inject oxygen through the air inlet of the device.

•Carefully follow the start-of-treatment and end-of-treatment steps described in the chapter on “Use” on page 11.

•If supplemental oxygen is being used, the oxygen flow must be turned off when the device is not operating. When the device is not in operation, and the oxygen flow is left on, oxygen delivered into the mask circuit may accumulate within the device enclosure. Oxygen accumulated in the device enclosure will create a risk of fire. This warning applies to most types of CPAP devices.

CAUTION

At a fixed flow rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled oxygen concentration will vary, depending on the pressure settings, patient breathing pattern, mask selection, and the leak rate. This caution applies to most types of CPAP devices.
