Transcend Heated Humidifier Guide Rapide page 3

• Disconnect power from the Humidifier prior to removing, filling, and replacing the
Water Reservoir.
• After use, take care when removing the Water Reservoir from the Humidifier as the
water and the Water Reservoir may be hot.
• Do not overfill the reservoir. Overfilling may allow water to enter the air supply
tubing. Do not fill the reservoir above the indicated maximum fill level.
• Re-insert the Water Reservoir slowly as water may spill into the air supply tubing if
the Water Reservoir is not handled carefully.
• Place the Humidifier at a level that is lower than your sleeping position to prevent
condensation from collecting in air supply tubing and patient interface. Avoid using a
heat setting that may result in the collection of condensation in the air tubing.
• To avoid the potential for electric shock unplug the Humidifier from the power
source and remove the Transcend PAP device before cleaning the humidifier. Allow
the Humidifier to dry completely before plugging it back into a power source.
• The Water Reservoir is the only part of the Heated Humidifier that should be
submerged in water. Never submerge any other part of the Humidifier in water. Do
not allow water to enter the interior of the Humidifier Body. In the event water enters
the interior of the Humidifier Body, wipe the surfaces dry of water using a lint-free
cotton cloth and allow to fully air dry before plugging it back in to a power source.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not position the Humidifier where it may be stepped on or accidentally
overturned.
• If the Water Reservoir is not fully inserted the heater will not activate and the
rightmost LED will turn red.
• Do not use a power converter or voltage transformer with Transcend products, as it
may damage them. Do not use a modified sine wave power inverter to power the
humidifier.
• Transcend automatically converts voltage, but may require a plug adaptor for use in
another country. It is recommended you use the interchangeable plug adaptors
supplied with the Transcend power supply. Use only the Somnetics-supplied
Universal Power Supplies and accessories.
• Empty the water reservoir before traveling with the heated humidifier.
• Humidity performance may be compromised if used outside the defined ambient
temperature range and humidity range.
