2.6 Usage of Filters
• Always use the Vivo 40 with patient air inlet filters installed. Only use filters
that are specified in this manual.
• Replace or clean the filters regularly to ensure correct function of the
Vivo 40, especially when changing patient. Failure to replace or clean a
dirty filter may cause the Vivo 40 to operate at higher temperatures than
intended.
• When operating the Vivo 40, make sure that the air inlet and filters are not
obstructed or occluded.
• The use of a high resistance bacteria filter on the output of the device may
interfere with the operation of the patient disconnect function. It may also
interfere with the device trigger function.
• Do not connect any filter to the HA 20 humidifier.
