Starting therapy

Performing a functional test

Make sure your device is functioning properly each time before starting therapy.

If any problems occur, see “Troubleshooting” on page 24. Please also check other 
provided User Instructions for troubleshooting information.

1

Turn off the device by pressing the power switch 

 at the back of the device. 

2

Check condition of device and accessories. 

Inspect the device and all the provided accessories. If there are any visible defects, the 
system should not be used.

3

Check the circuit configuration.

Check the integrity of the circuit configuration (device and provided accessories) according 
to the setup descriptions in this User Guide and that all connections are secure.

4

Turn on the device and check alarms.

Press the power switch 

 at the back of the device once to turn on the device.

Check that the alarm sounds a test beep and the LEDs (visual indicator) for the alarm signal 
and the Alarm mute button flash. The device is ready for use when the 

Treatment

 screen 

is displayed. If the display shows the 

Reminder

 page, follow the instructions, then press  

 to display the 

Treatment

 screen.

5

Check batteries.

Disconnect the device from the mains and external battery (if in use) so that the device is 
powered by the internal battery. Check that the Battery use alarm is displayed and the 
battery LED is on. 

Note:

 If the charge state of the internal battery is too low, or if the battery is empty, an 

alarm occurs. See the Alarm troubleshooting section on page 24 for further information.

Reconnect the external battery (if in use) and check that the LED for the external power 
supply is lit. The External DC power use alarm will be displayed and the Alarm LED will light. 

Reconnect the device to the mains.

6

Check H4i heated humidifier (if in use).

Check that the warm-up feature is displayed in the 

Treatment

 screen. Start the warm-up 

feature. Check that the humidifier warm-up symbol is displayed on top of the screen.

You can use the warm-up feature to pre-heat 
the water in the humidifier prior to starting 
treatment. The humidifier will be automatically 
detected when the device is turned on. The 

Treatment

 screen provides the option to start 

warming the humidifier. If the humidifier is 
heating, the related symbol is displayed at the 
top of the LCD screen. 

For more information, see the H4i User Guide.

Note:

 The H4i in heating mode can only be used 

when the device is connected to mains supply.

7

Check the FiO

2

 monitoring sensor (if in use).

Start the FiO

2

 sensor calibration. Select 

Setup

 menu, then 

Options

 (see “Setup menu: 

Options” on page 18). Follow the instructions on the display.

8

Check pulse oximeter (if in use).

Attach the accessories according to the setup descriptions (see “Attaching the pulse 
oximeter” on page 8). From
 the 

Monitoring

 menu, go to the 

Monitoring

 screen. Check that 

the values for SpO

2

 and Heart rate are displayed.
