Safety information

•
We recommend the use of the tube systems tested
and approved for use by the manufacturer. Using
other tube systems may lead to differing results.
•
When a valve tube system and a nasal or full-face
mask is used for non-invasive ventilation, this mask
must not contain an expiration opening.
•
Always ensure that when using a leakage tube sys-
tem, the small aperture in the mask or the connecting
piece between the mask and the tube is clear so that
the C
O
2
-laden exhaled air can escape.
•
When using a valve tube system, the controlled
expiration valve must not meet any resistance during
exhalation and must enable quick ventilation of the
ventilation tube system.
•
Please observe the expiration date when using a
bacterial
fi
lter.
•
In order to ensure patient safety, the device must be
operated in such a way that all adjustable alarms are
activated and adjusted to the patient.
•
Acoustic alarms must not be ignored. They indicate
conditions that require an immediate reaction.
•
In case of extraordinary efforts on the patient’s part,
there is a risk of hyperventilation in all ventilation
modes with inspiration triggering.
•
The device’s housing provides only minimal protec-
tion against water penetration.
•
The device must not be steam-sterilized in an auto-
clave.
