Open the box and unpack your PAP machine, humidifier chamber, tubing, mask, power cord and supplies.
Attach the
power cord to the PAP machine. Next, attach the tubing to the PAP machine.
Fill the humidifier with distilled water and insert the humidifier into
the PAP machine
It is recommended that you use distilled water. However, if you do not have distilled water on hand, in order to start your therapy today, bottled water can be used as a substitute to distilled water as a temporary measure.
Place the PAP machine on a table next to your bed.
The height of the table should be lower than your head. Plug the power cord into an electric wall outlet. Fit your mask. If your doctor prescribed a specific mask and size, follow the fitting instructions provided by the manufacturer. If you received a mask with multiple cushions, follow these instructions
- There is a mask cushion currently attached to the frame of your mask.
- This size fits most patients.
- Once you begin therapy, if your mask is leaking or feels uncomfortable, try removing the existing cushion and replacing it with a different size cushion.
- If you are between sizes, it is best to use the larger cushion.
- Use the Fitting Template for nasal mask and full face mask and/or the manufacturer’s instructions included with your mask for help.
