    Why does my Respironics REMstar Auto M system Medical Equipment reset and reboot automatically?
    • E
      Elizabeth DavisAug 14, 2025
      If your Respironics Medical Equipment device shuts down and restarts automatically during therapy, it is equipped with troubleshooting software that monitors performance. This reset is not dangerous and ensures you receive your prescribed therapy. However, if the device is damaged, it will shut down permanently and display a 'Service Required' error, indicating it should be returned to your home care provider.

    Why is the air out of my Respironics REMstar Auto M system mask so warm?
    • A
      Aaron CollinsAug 18, 2025
      If the air coming out of your Respironics Medical Equipment mask feels warmer than usual, the air filters may be dirty, or the device may be operating in direct sunlight or near a heater. Clean or replace the air filters. Ensure the device is properly ventilated and away from bedding or curtains that could block airflow. Keep it away from direct sunlight and heating equipment. The temperature of the air may vary somewhat based on your room temperature.

    What to do if my Respironics Medical Equipment falls off the nightstand?
    • D
      danielle71Aug 21, 2025
      If your Respironics Medical Equipment device has fallen off your table or nightstand, it may not have been properly seated, or the tubing placement may have caused it to fall. Always place your device on a hard, flat surface, ensuring the feet can adhere to the surface. Keep the device level and away from the edge. If using a humidifier, place the device and humidifier below your head and mask to allow condensation to drain back into the water chamber. If water gets into the device, drain all water and ensure it is completely dry before reapplying power. Use proper hose management to prevent falls. Let the device dry completely before restarting it. If the device does not operate correctly after falling, contact your home care provider.

    Why is the display on my Respironics REMstar Auto M system Medical Equipment device erratic?
    • M
      Marilyn WernerAug 27, 2025
      If your Respironics Medical Equipment device display is erratic, it may have been dropped or mishandled, or it may be in an area with high Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). Unplug the device and power supply, then reapply power. If the problem continues, relocate the device to an area with lower EMI emissions, away from electronic equipment such as cellular phones, cordless phones, computers, TVs, electronic games, and hair dryers. If the problem still occurs, contact your home care provider.

      leemarkAug 31, 2025
      If your Respironics Medical Equipment device does not operate when you press the button, and the airflow does not turn on, there may be a problem with the blower. Ensure the device is powered correctly. If the audible indicator sounds and the button backlights turn on when you apply power, but the airflow does not turn on, contact your home care provider for assistance.

    Why doesn't the Ramp feature work on my Respironics REMstar Auto M system Medical Equipment?
    • A
      ajacksonSep 3, 2025
      If the Ramp feature does not work when you press the Ramp button on your Respironics Medical Equipment, your home care provider may not have prescribed Ramp for you, or your CPAP pressure may already be set to the minimum setting. Discuss this feature with your home care provider to see if they will change your prescription. If your provider has enabled Ramp, but the feature still does not work, check the pressure setting on your Active Display screen. If it is set to the minimum setting (4.0 cm H2O), the Ramp feature will not work.

      If nothing happens when you apply power to your Respironics Medical Equipment device, and the audible indicator does not sound, and the backlights do not light, there may be no power at the outlet, or the device may be unplugged. If using AC power, check the outlet and ensure the device is properly plugged in, with the AC power cord correctly connected to the power supply and the power supply cord securely connected to the device’s power inlet. If the problem continues, contact your home care provider. If using DC power, ensure your DC power cord and battery adaptor cable connections are secure.
