S9 WARNINGS
•
Advice contained in this manual should not supersede instructions given by the prescribing
physician.
•
Do not use your S9 if there are obvious external defects or unexplained changes in performance.
•
Only ResMed air tubing and accessories should be used with these devices. A different type of air
tubing or accessory may alter the pressure you actually receive, reducing the effectiveness of your
treatment.
•
Blocking the air tubing and/or air inlet of the S9 device while in operation could lead to overheating
of the device.
•
If your clinician has told you to use the SD card to update the settings on your device and the
"Settings updated successfully" message does not appear, contact your clinician immediately.
•
A patient should not connect a device to the module connector port unless instructed to do so by
their health care provider or physician. Only ResMed products are designed to be connected to the
module connector port. Connecting other devices could result in injury, or damage to the S9 device.
•
These S9 devices should only be used with masks (and connectors
by a physician or respiratory therapist. A mask should not be used unless the device is turned on.
Once the mask is fitted, ensure that the device is blowing air. The vent hole or holes associated
with the mask should never be blocked.
Explanation: Your S9 is intended to be used with special masks (or connectors) which have vent
holes to allow continuous flow of air out of the mask. When the device is turned on and functioning
properly, new air from the device flushes the exhaled air out through the mask vent holes. However,
when the device is not operating, insufficient fresh air will be provided through the mask, and the
exhaled air may be rebreathed. Rebreathing of exhaled air for longer than several minutes can, in
some circumstances, lead to suffocation. This applies to most models of CPAP devices.
1. Ports may be incorporated into the mask or in connectors that are near the mask.
