4. Accessories
There are several accessories available for your BiPAP S/T system such
as a humidier. Contact your home care provider for additional infor-
mation on the available accessories. When using the optional acces-
sories, always follow the instructions enclosed with the accessories.
Humidier
You can use the System One Heated humidier or the Pass-over
humidier with your device. They are available from your home care
provider. A humidier may reduce nasal dryness and irritations by
adding moisture to the airow.
SD Card
The system comes with an SD card inserted in the SD card slot on the
back of the device to record information for the home care provider.
Your home care provider may ask you to periodically remove the SD
card and send it to them for evaluation.
CAUTION
For safe operation, the humidier
must always be positioned below
the breathing circuit connection at
the mask and the air outlet on the
device. The humidier must be level
for proper operation.
Note: Refer to the humidier’s
instructions for complete setup
information.
Note: The SD card does not
need to be installed for the
device to work properly. The
SD card records device usage
information for your home care
provider. You can refer to the
Device Alarms chapter of this
manual for more information on
the SD card. Contact your home
care provider if you have any
questions about the SD card.
