•
2001–4000 ft (610–1219 m)
•
4001–6000 ft (1220–1828 m)
•
6001–8500 ft (1829–2591 m).
•
For example, if a patient is at an altitude of 3107' (947 m), their altitude compensation
setting would be 2001–4000' (610–1219 m), as 3107' (947 m) falls within that range.
Note: Before calibrating or setting the treatment pressure, make sure the altitude
compensation is at the correct setting.

•
this relative change in the pressure gain will be transferred to the other altitude
settings.
