COMPONENTS OF YOUR HUMIDAIRE 3i
ENGLISH
• Do not operate the HUMIDAIRE 3i if the CPAP device has a damaged power cord
or plug.
• Do not operate the HUMIDAIRE 3i if it is not working properly or if any part of it
has been dropped or damaged.
• Keep the CPAP device power cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not drop or insert any object into any opening or tubes.
• Do not use the HUMIDAIRE 3i in the presence of flammable or explosive
materials.
• Explosion hazard—do not use in the vicinity of flammable anaesthetics.
• If oxygen is used with this device, the oxygen flow must be turned off when the
device is not operating.
If oxygen has been left on, turn off the flow generator, then wait 30 minutes before
turning on the flow generator again.
Explanation: When the CPAP device is not in operation and the oxygen flow is
left on, oxygen delivered into the air delivery tubing may accumulate within the
CPAP machine enclosure and create a risk of fire. This applies to most types of
CPAP machines.
• Oxygen supports combustion. Oxygen should not be used while you are
smoking or in the presence of an open flame.
• Always ensure airflow is being generated by the device before the oxygen
supply is turned on.
• Always turn the oxygen supply off before stopping the airflow from the device.
Note: At a fixed rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled oxygen concentration
will vary, depending on where the oxygen is introduced, the pressure settings, patient
breathing pattern, mask selection and leak rate.
