turn on.
There may be a
problem with the
blower.
Make sure the device is powered correctly, following the instructions
on the previous page. If the audible indicator sounds and the button
backlights turn on when you apply power, but the airow does not
turn on, there may be a problem with your device. Contact your
home care provider for assistance.

Unplug the device and the power supply. Reapply power to the
device. If the problem continues, relocate the device to an area with
lower EMI emissions (e.g., away from electronic equipment such as
cellular phones, cordless phones, computers, TVs, electronic games,
hair dryers, etc.).
If the problem still occurs, contact your home care provider for
assistance.
