4. Run a mask check every time the breathing tube system is changed or a new
mask is being used. For instructions, refer to the “Patient settings” section
under “Mask calibration”.
Note: When using the tube and mask, follow the manufacturer’s specications in the
relevant instructions for use.
WARNING: Risk of injury from breathing tube system and cables!
• Incorrect routing of the breathing tube system or long cables can lead to
injury or suffocation
Ö Lay the tube system and cables carefully so that they cannot wrap around
the neck and tighten
Ö Do not use any small parts that can be inhaled or swallowed to fix the
tube system or cables.
5. Arrange the breathing tube so that you can move around during therapy with-
out the tube pulling on the mask.
Operation with the H100 respiratory humidifier
To humidify the respiratory air, the device can be operated using the easily inte-
grated H100 respiratory air humidifier. The humidifier has a heater that warms
the humidifier water. Before using the humidifier, be sure to read the safety and
cleaning instructions in these instructions for use.
The LUVAR respiratory therapy device is needed in order to use the H100 humidifi-
er. When operating the respiratory air humidifier, use only the accessories supplied
or recommended for this respiratory therapy device.
Note: Humidier output ranges from > 12.5 mg/l up to the maximum therapy pres-
sure, as per ISO 80601-2-74.
Note: The humidier requires a sufcient amount of water in the water tank to func-
tion correctly, (ll level between the “MIN” and “MAX” markings).
Connecting the respiratory humidifier
1. Make sure that the respiratory therapy device is placed on a level surface.
There must be enough space to the right of the device to easily disconnect
and reconnect the humidifier or its water tank.
Note: The respiratory therapy device should be positioned so that it is lower than the
patient when lying down. This allows condensation to ow back into the humidi-
er and not collect in the breathing tube and mask
