When you use the comfort delay feature while your device is operating in CPAP mode, the
airflow you receive at the beginning of your therapy is temporarily lowered to a pressure
selected by your physician when the device was setup.
Press the delay button to activate the comfort delay feature. The airflow pressure will drop to
the prescribed comfort delay pressure.
During the delay period, the pressure will gently rise to the pressure prescribed for your
therapy. You may repeat the comfort delay by pressing the delay button again if you have
not fallen asleep.
UsingTheSmartFlexFeature
Your SleepCube has a SmartFlex pressure relief feature to help
make it easier for exhale against your prescribed pressure by
lowering the pressure slightly when you exhale. The pressure
returns to your prescribed pressure during inhale to maintain your therapy.
SmartFlex pressure relief includes three settings for exhale relief; 1, 2, and 3. (1 is the least
amount of relief, 3 is the most amount of relief). Setting SmartFlex pressure relief to zero
(0) turns the SmartFlex feature OFF.
The pressure waveform can also be adjusted independently for inhale and exhale to smooth
the transition when SmartFlex pressure relief is active. The pressure waveform settings are
SmartFlex-i (IRnd) and SmartFlex-e (ERnd) with settings from 0 to 5 in steps of 1 (0 is the
least amount of smoothing, 5 is the most amount of smoothing).
