IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING WARNING – 1. THIS DEVICE IS NOT INTENDED FOR LIFE SUPPORT. It may stop operating due to power interruption but no hazards to patient. 2. This device should not be used with oxygen. 3. This device should not be used in the vicinity of a flammable anaesthetic mixture in combination with oxygen or air and nitrous oxide. 4. The airflow for breathing generated by this device may be as much as 7°C (12.6°F) higher than the room temperature. This device SHOULD NOT be used if the room temperature is warmer than 35°C (95°F) to prevent the airflow temperature from exceeding 40°C (104°F) and causing irritation to your airway. 5. If this device overheats, it will stop operating and show Error Message “[E 002]” on the display. After cooling down to proper temperature, the device can be restarted again. 6. This machine should be used only with masks (and connectors) recommended by the manufacturer, or by your physician or respiratory therapist. A mask should not be used unless the CPAP machine is turned on and operating properly. The vent holes in the mask should never be blocked for proper exhalation. 7. At low CPAP pressure, some exhaled gas may remain in the mask and be rebreathed. NOTE – • U.S. Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a licensed physician. • This device is not recommended for use with a passover-humidifier except indicated by physicians.

1. Introduction This manual should be used for initial set up of the system and saved for reference purpose. 1.1 General Information Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) is a condition characterised by intermittent and repetitive obstruction of the upper respiratory tract causing a complete (apnoea) or partial (hypopnea) blockade of airflow during sleep. The syndrome varies in severity depending on the degree of relaxation of the tongue and soft palate muscle. The most common treatment for OSA is Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP). CPAP devices can deliver a constant air pressure into your upper airway via a nasal mask. This constant air pressure can keep your airway open during sleep, therefore prevents the OSA. This device is a micro-processor controlled continuous positive airway pressure device. It features an illuminated, menu-driven LCD display, ramp time adjustment, altitude compensation, compliance meter, and total operating meter. The quiet operation also ensures that you fall asleep comfortably. The compliance meter/ total meter provide the usage record for physician’s reference. The system has been tested and successfully approved to the following standards: EN 60601-1 EN 60601-1-2 EN 55011 Class B IEC 61000-4-2 0197 0197 IEC 61000-4-3 IEC 61000-4-4 IEC 61000-4-5 IEC 61000-4-6 IEC 61000-4-8 IEC 61000-4-11 EN 61000-3-2 Class A EN 61000-3-3

3.3 WARNING & CAUTION
WARNING:
This CPAP machine should be used only with special masks (or connectors) recommended by the manufacturer of the CPAP machine, or by your physician or respiratory therapist. A mask should not be worn unless the CPAP machine is turned on and operating properly. The vent hole in the mask should never be blocked for proper exhalation. If the device air outlet is blocked, the CPAP machine will stop and show message “[E 002]”, after cooling down, please re-connect the power cord to reset the machine.
WARNING:
When the CPAP is not in operation, oxygen may accumulate within the CPAP device enclosure, and it may create the risk of fire. This warning applies to most of the CPAP models.
WARNING:
This device SHOULD NOT be used if the room temperature is warmer than 35°C(95°F) to prevent the temperature of air delivered to nasal mask over 40°C(104°F).
WARNING:
This device SHOULD NOT be used in the vicinity of a flammable anaesthetic mixture in combination with oxygen or air and nitrous oxide. L’équipement ne peut être utilisé s’il y a risque de mélange d’un anesthésique inflammable avec l’air ou l’oxygène ou oxyde nitreux. At low pressures, some exhaled gas may remain in the mask and be rebreathed.
CAUTION: CAUTION:
Make sure the environment around the machine is dry and clean. Dust and foreign particles may affect the treatment. Keep the air inlet on the back of the machine clear to prevent overheating and damage of the device. Do not place the machine near a source of hot or cold air. Extreme cold or hot environment may damage user's respiratory airway.
CAUTION:
Do not connect the device to a personal computer for data downloading during the treatment. This may cause failure of the CPAP system.

4. Operation
NOTE: Always read the operating instruction before use. 4.1 Control Panel Description Buttons arrangement on control panel and main use of the buttons:
START/STANDBY To start the treatment, simply press the "START/STANDBY" button. To stop the treatment, press the "START/STANDBY" button again. The display will switch between [STANDBY] and Current Pressure [P XX.X] in cmH2O unit. MENU Press the "MENU" button to enter the setting mode when device is in standby mode. The adjustment setting includes ramp time selection, ramp starting pressure, altitude compensation, therapy pressure adjustment, compliance meter, and total operating meter. When the value of each setting has been changed, press "MENU" for confirmation and press "MENU" again for next setting selection. Please refer to 4.2 Function Description section for detailed information.
UP Press the "UP" button to select a higher value.
DOWN Press the "DOWN" button to select a lower value. 7
4.2 Function Description (1) Ramp Time Ramp time function allows user to fall into sleep with a lower, comfortable pressure and helps users gradually accustomed to increasing treatment pressure. The first selection of pressing "MENU" is [R XX MIN]. When the "MENU" setting is in [R XX MIN] mode, press "UP" or "DOWN" button to set the preferred ramp time and then press "MENU" for confirmation. There are 10 adjustable levels, 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 and 45 minutes. For example, if the therapy pressure is set at 10 cmH2O and the ramp time is set at 20 minutes, then the actual pressure will increase from ramp starting pressure (selectable by user, see 4.2.2)) to therapy pressure 10 cmH2O in 20 minutes.
Ramp starting pressure
(2) Ramp Starting Pressure Press "MENU" button to select [R-P XX.X] menu, press "UP" or "DOWN" button to set the preferred ramp starting pressure and press "MENU" for confirmation. The ramp start pressure can be changed from 3 cmH2O to “Therapy Pressure – 1” cmH2O. For example, if your therapy pressure is 10 cmH2O, the maximum ramp starting pressure you can select is 9 cmH2O.

NOTE – Altitude compensation setting is mainly for the sensitivity adjustment for low pressure alarm at mask off or leakage situation. This device equipped with pressure sensory feedback mechanism by PWM control. Whenever air leakage or mask off occurs, the device will compensate more PWM value to achieve the targeted pressure.
(4) Therapy Pressure Press "MENU" button to select [P XX.X] menu, you can view the current pressure setting displayed in cmH2O unit. Therapy pressure is adjustable only by the physician/technician. (5) Compliance Meter Press "MENU" button to select [CM XXXX.X] menu, the compliance meter records the time during which the patient has breathed with the device. The compliance meter is displayed in Hour unit, and can be re-set only by the physician/technician. (6) Total Meter Press "MENU" button to select [TM XXXX.X] menu, the total meter records the total device operating time displayed in Hour unit. The meter can be re-set only by the physician/technician. (7) Low Pressure Auto-Off Function If a major leak (e.g., when you remove the mask) is detected for a period of time, the airflow will decrease to a low pressure and the screen will display [LOW PRES], after approximately two minutes the device will automatically turn off and go back to standby mode. To re-start the treatment, simply press the "START/STANDBY" button.
