Routine Maintenance
•
Perform the circuit check each time a fresh circuit/exhalation valve is installed.
•
Check the air intake filter (located behind the filter cover) at setup and at least weekly while in use. In
some environments, it may need to be checked more often. Replace when the majority of the filter
surface area is no longer white. Air intake filters are not reusable.

WARNING:
NEVER reverse the air intake filter when dirty.
•
Check the prox inline filter weekly. Replace with a new filter if it appears to have gotten wet or come
in contact with a contaminant. Inline filters are not reusable.
•
Check the mixer intake filter (located behind the mixer cover) at setup and at least weekly while in use.
In some environments, it may need to be checked more often. Replace when the majority of the filter
surface area is no longer white. Mixer intake filters are not reusable.
•
Inspect the AC power adapter on a regular basis for signs of broken or frayed cord or connectors.
•
Inspect the exhalation valve after each cleaning to verify that there are no cracks or damaged surfaces.

Wipe down the surface of the ventilator housing regularly to remove any dust that might accumulate.

Inspect and when necessary, replace accessories.
