MAINTENANCE
If operated correctly, the device is maintenance-free. However, in order to
increase the service life, we recommend regular maintenance every 2 years.
Do not try to open the device. Maintenance and repairs may only be
performed by personnel authorized by us, because only they have
the tools and measuring equipment required.
You yourself can help to increase the service life of the device and ensure
that it continues to work safely.

PREPARING THE DEVICE WHEN CHANGING PATIENT
The devices are only intended for use by a single patient.
If the device is to be used for another patient, it must
fi
rst of all be
prepared hygienically.
When being given to another patient, the device must be prepared hygieni-
cally by the specialist dealer or the manufacturer. If reuse of the mask and
the therapy tube is planned, they must also be prepared by the specialist
dealer or the manufacturer.
The preparation procedure is described in detail in the corresponding
hygiene plan.
