SAFETY INFORMATION
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•
The device must only be used for your own CPAP therapy,
which is prescribed by the physician.
•
Use only accessories and spare parts tested and approved
by the manufacturer.
•
For operation and usage of the device at home, a respira-
tory mask specially adapted for the individual patient is
required in addition to the therapy device with power
cable and therapy tubing system. Only use masks that
have been prescribed for your treatment by a physician.
•
Only use the mask together with a respiratory therapy
device and when the device is switched on.
•Unless specified otherwise, the mask and therapy tube
must only be used by one patient.
•
Only use the mask after instruction by a qualified medical
person and clarify in particular the intake of medicines
and possible contraindications and side effects associ-
ated with the use of the mask.
•
If you are using oxygen with the CPAP therapy, observe
the fire protection and safety regulations for using oxygen.
•Do not wear the mask if the therapy device is switched
off because this could lead to breathing in air that has
already been exhaled. Observe the respiratory mask
manufacturer’s instructions.
•Always ensure that the small hole in the mask or in the
adapter between the mask and the tube is unobstructed
so that the exhaled air that is loaded with CO2can
escape.
•Observe the mask manufacturer‘s instructions.
