Lumis with HumidAir
If you have a Lumis device with HumidAir™, fill the humidifier as follows:
Open the humidifier and fill with water up to the maximum water level mark.
Close the humidifier and insert it into the side of the device.
Heated humidification offers relief from dryness and congestion and is
designed to make therapy more comfortable.
Adjusting to therapy
If you are a first time user, you might need some time to get used to therapy.
This is not unusual as it takes most patients between one and two weeks to
adjust to the air pressure.
Overcoming symptoms by changing comfort settings
If you are having difficulties getting used to therapy, you can use the Lumis
comfort features.
- Trouble falling asleep — If you are having trouble falling asleep with high pressure, turn on Ramp or increase Ramp Time.
- Bloated feeling — If you are experiencing a slightly bloated feeling from swallowing air, turn on Ramp or increase Ramp Time.
- Feeling of not getting enough air — If you feel like you are not getting enough air, turn Ramp Time to Off.
To change the Ramp Time:
-
Press the dial to enter My Options.
-
Turn the dial tohighlight Ramp Time and then press to select it.
-
Turn the dial to adjust to your preferred setting
-
Press the dial to save the change.
If you have a Lumis device with HumidAir, you have more comfort features available which help make your therapy more comfortable.
- Dry or runny nose —If you are getting a dry or runny nose, adjust the Humidity Level by turning it up.
