To set up the VPAP III ST-A with the HumidAire:
1. Fill the HumidAire with water as described in the humidifier manual.
2. Place the filled water chamber inside the HumidAire. Connect the medium
(52 cm) air tubing to the right connector port, and the long air tubing (2 m or
3 m) to the left connector port on the humidifier (G-1). Close the HumidAire
lid.
3. Place the VPAP III ST-A on top of the HumidAire (G-2). Do not place the

VPAP III ST-A (G-3).
5. Connect the mask system to the free end of the long air tubing. The final
assembly should look like illustration G-4.
