Disconnecting the Therapy Device
CAUTION: To avoid spilling, do not disconnect the humidifier from the therapy device with water
in the tank. Remove the water tank from the humidifier before disconnecting the therapy device.
1. Grasp the release latch on the bottom of the humidifier.
2. While holding both the therapy device and the humidifier, pull the release latch and pull the two
units apart.
3. If you will be using the therapy device without the humidifier, reattach the side cover to the
therapy device.
Daily Use
1. Place the connected therapy device with humidifier on a firm, flat surface lower than your
sleeping position.
WARNING: The humidifier must always be positioned below the breathing circuit connection at
the mask and the air outlet on the device. The humidifier must be level for proper operation.
CAUTION: Do not place the humidifier directly onto carpet, fabric, or other flammable materials.
CAUTION: Do not place the device in or on any container that can collect or hold water. Take
precautions to protect furniture from water damage.
CAUTION: Do not turn the humidifier on without the water tank installed. The Humidifier setting
must remain "off" if there is no water in the water tank.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to fill the tank while it is still inside the humidifier.
WARNING: Allow the humidifier heater plate and water to cool down for approximately 15
minutes before removing the water tank. A burn may result from: touching the heater plate,
coming in contact with the heated water, or touching the tank pan.
2. Lift up on the release lever to open the humidifier door until it locks in an open position. You will
hear a "click" once the door is opened far enough to remain in an open position. Remove the
water tank by grasping the front of the tank and sliding it out of the humidifier enclosure.
CAUTION: The humidifier door must be set in the open position before removing the water tank. Do
not remove the water tank without making sure that the humidifier door locks into the open position.
