Managing Climate Control
Designed to be ideal for most patients, Climate Control Auto enables the automatic delivery of a constant
value of absolute humidity while protecting against rainout.
To allow for increased flexibility, Climate Control can be turned to Manual in either the Patient Setup
(when enabled) or the Clinical Setup menus. Setting Climate Control to Manual disables the automatic
control of humidity and allows the patient to set humidity and temperature levels independently.
However, rainout protection is not provided when Climate Control is set to manual.

When the temperature setting is set to Off, the tube will not heat the air nor will the humidifier heat the water to add
humidity to the air.
