Stopping Treatment; Using The Humidaire 2I Warm-Up Feature; Using The Mask-Fitting Feature - ResMed VPAP III ST-A Manuel Utilisateur

Stopping Treatment

To stop treatment at any time, remove your mask and press the Start/Stop key
or
if your clinician has enabled the SmartStart function, simply remove your mask
and treatment will end (SmartStop is not applicable with the "Mir Full" mask
setting).

Using the HumidAire 2i Warm-up Feature

If using a HumidAire 2i with the VPAP III ST-A, you can use the Warm-up feature
to pre-heat the water in the humidifier prior to starting treatment.
After stopping treatment, the VPAP III ST-A will continue to blow air gently to
assist cooling of the heater plate.
See the HumidAire 2i User's Manual for further details.

Using the Mask-Fitting Feature

The VPAP III ST-A mask-fitting feature can be used to help you fit your mask
properly. The mask-fitting feature delivers air pressure for a three-minute period,
prior to starting treatment, for checking and adjusting your mask fit to minimize
leaks. If a Ramp time is selected, the mask can be adjusted at a pressure closer
to the prescribed pressure. To use the mask-fitting feature:
1. Fit your mask as described in the user instructions.
2. Hold down the Start/Stop key for at least three seconds until air pressure
delivery starts.
The following display will appear on the LCD screen indicating that the
mask-fitting feature is in operation. The flow generator will ramp to the Mask-
Fit pressure and will remain at this pressure for three minutes. A Mask-Fit
star rating is also displayed. See "Definitions of Mask-Fit Star Rating" on
page 19.

comfortable fit.
