13Setting up the VPAP System
English
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 11.
