Maintenance Follow the service recommendations provided in Chapter 7 of this
manual.
Periodically inspect electrical cords, cables, and the detachable battery
pack for damage or signs of wear. Discontinue use and replace if
damaged.
Repairs and adjustments must be performed by Philips Respironics-
authorized service personnel only. Unauthorized service could cause
death or injury, invalidate the warranty, or result in costly device
damage.
Cleaning
(Refer to Chapter 7
for detailed cleaning
instructions.)
To avoid electrical shock, always unplug the power cord from the wall
outlet before cleaning the ventilator.
If the device has been exposed to rain or dampness, dry the device
including the area around the power cord connection with the power
cord disconnected from the device before applying AC power.
Cautions
A caution indicates the possibility of damage to the device.
Storage
The internal and detachable batteries will self-discharge in storage. If it
is desired to keep the batteries fully charged (for example, as a back-
up ventilator), plug the device into AC power for about eight hours
every 16 days. Alternatively, the ventilator may be left continuously
connected to AC power without battery degradation.
Allowing the batteries to fully discharge will not harm the batteries or
lose device settings, but may require a longer battery charge time prior
to use.
