How to Use the S8 Elite II
Please refer to the illustrations in section D of the illustration sheet.
Set Up the S8 Elite II
1 Place the S8 Elite II 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 II 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 1.5 m away from, or at least 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 17).
The S8 Elite II is now ready for use (D-4).
