Caution!
• Do not transport the VENTIlogic with the VENTIclick humidifier at-
tached. Tilting might cause water remaining in the VENTIclick to run
into the VENTIlogic and damage it.
• Malfunctions and a lack of biocompatiblity may result if third-party
articles are used. Please bear in mind that in these cases, any war-
ranty entitlement and liability shall lapse where neither the accesso-
ries recommended in the instructions for use nor original spare parts
have been used.
• Have all inspections and repair work carried out only by the manu-
facturer (WEINMANN) or specialist staff.
