Connecting the breathing tube system
1. Ensure that all parts and accessories used for connection to the patient are
compatible with each other and with the respiratory therapy device and, if
applicable, the humidifier.
WARNING: Risk of injury due to incorrect accessories!
• Do not attach any additional parts or accessories to the device or the humidi-
fier that are not listed in these instructions for use, as otherwise the device or
the humidifier may not function properly. This may reduce the quality of the
therapy or cause injury to the patient.
• Only use breathing tubes that comply with ISO 5367 and ISO 80601-2-74 to
prevent the tube from coming loose during therapy and to prevent the tube
from being adversely affected by heat emitted from the humidifier.
WARNING: Risk of suffocation if exhalation system is not used!
• Failure to use a mask or an accessory that minimizes the rebreathing of CO
2
or enables spontaneous breathing can lead to suffocation.
Ö Use only masks with an integrated exhalation system, such as those listed
in these instructions for use under “Accessories” or use an exhalation sys-
tem between the mask and the breathing tube.
2. Connect one end of the tube to the air outlet on the respiratory therapy de-
vice. If using the humidifier, connect the end to the air outlet on the humidifi-
er.
3. Connect the other end of the breathing tube to the mask.
Note: Mask materials coming into contact with the skin may cause a rash, soreness or
itching in people who are allergic. To avoid allergic reactions wherever possible,
we recommend the use of the masks listed under “Accessories”.
WARNING: Risk of injury due to therapy air being too hot!
• Covering the breathing tubes with a blanket and heating them with a heater
can impair the quality of the therapy or cause injuries to the patient.
