MY CPAP MACHINE
HOW DO I SWITCH THE MACHINE ON AND OFF?
The large square button at the top of the machine is the on/off switch.
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE ‘RAMP’ SETTING ON
THE MACHINE?
The Ramp setting allows the machine to start at a lower pressure
and then gradually increase to the treatment pressure. The machine
will check that you are asleep and then automatically increase the
pressure.
If you’re not asleep the machine will increase the pressure automati-
cally 30 minutes after it has been activated.
The Ramp setting has been programmed into the CPAP machine.
You don’t need to activate it.
Remember: the Ramp time is not included in the usage hours.
