WELCOME
Thank you for choosing the ResMed HUMIDAIRE 3i™ humidifier. The HUMIDAIRE 3i
is designed to humidify (moisten) the air delivered to your airway during CPAP
(continuous positive airway pressure) therapy. The H
UMIDAIRE 3i attaches to your
ResMed S8™ Series CPAP flow generator with a simple ‘click-in’ mechanism.
This user manual contains the information you need for the correct use of your
H
UMIDAIRE 3i.
WHAT IS THE HUMIDAIRE 3i?
The HUMIDAIRE 3i is designed to form a single unit with a ResMed CPAP flow
generator. The combined unit provides humidification during CPAP therapy, and can
make therapy more comfortable.
You may have experienced nasal congestion or dryness of the nose, mouth, or throat
during CPAP therapy. These symptoms are caused by dry climates, cold air
temperatures, the airflow delivered from your flow generator, or mouth leak. Moist air
may help relieve these symptoms of dryness.
Refer to your flow generator manual to see whether it is compatible with the
H
UMIDAIRE 3i. Contact your equipment supplier or ResMed office if you require
further information.
