Attaching a Passover Humidifier
Please refer to the illustrations in section H of the illustration sheet.
Medium size (52 cm) air tubing is a necessary accessory for connecting the
VPAP unit to the ResMed Passover humidifier.
To set up the VPAP with the ResMed
Passover:
1. Fill the Passover with water as described in the humidifier manual.
2. Connect the medium (52 cm) air tubing to the right connector port, and
the long air tubing (2 m or 3 m) to the left connector port on the
humidifier (H-1).
3. Place the VPAP on top of the Passover (H-2). Do not place the VPAP unit
underneath the humidifier. (This is to avoid water spilling into the unit.)
4. Connect the free end of the medium air tubing to the air outlet of the
VPAP (H-3).
5. Connect the mask system to the free end of the long air tubing. The final
assembly should look like figure H-4.
6. If the VPAP is not already plugged in, see Step 2 on page 7.

WARNING
Make sure that the power cord and plug are in good condition and the
equipment is not damaged.
7. Navigate to the humidifier setting (if available) in the VPAP menu and
select "PASSOVER". See “How to Use the Detailed Menu (if enabled by
your clinician)” on page 20.
