HOW TO USE THE S8 ELITE
HOW TO USE THE S8 ELITE
Please refer to the illustrations in section D of the illustration sheet.
SET UP THE S8 ELITE
1 Place the S8 ELITE on a table near the head of your bed.
!
CAUTION
Be careful not to place the device where it can be bumped or where someone is
likely to trip over the power cord.
Note: You can also place your S8 Elite on the floor beside or underneath your bed. Ensure
that the area is free from dust and clear of bedding, clothes, or any other objects that could
block the air inlet.
2 Connect the power cord to the socket at the rear of the flow generator (D-1). Plug
the other end of the power cord into the power outlet.
!
WARNING
Make sure the power cord and plug are in good condition and the equipment is not
damaged.
3 Connect one end of the air tubing firmly onto the air outlet (D-2).
!
WARNING
• Only ResMed air tubing should be used with your flow generator. A different
type of air tubing may alter the pressure you actually receive, reducing the
effectiveness of your treatment.
• Blocking the air inlet or tubing while in operation could lead to overheating of
the device.
• In the clinical environment any personal computer that is used with your CPAP
system must be at least 5’ (1.5 m) away from, or at least 8’ (2.5 m) above, the
patient. It must also comply with the relevant test standard. For personal
computers the international standard is IEC 60950 or equivalent.
ASSEMBLE THE MASK
1 Assemble your mask system according to the mask user instructions.
2 Connect your mask system to the free end of the air tubing (D-3).
3 Check that the mask setting on the MASK screen is the one recommended for the
mask you are using (see the table in “How to Select the Mask Type” on page 18).
The
S8 ELITE is now ready for use (D-4).
