Remove your mask to stop treatment. If SmartStop is enabled, treatment will stop automatically. If the SmartStop function has been disabled, press the Start/Stop key once. VPAP Adapt SV System VPAP Adapt SV Components The VPAP Adapt SV flow generator is supplied with air tubing and a power cord. Masks are supplied separately, as you and your clinician have to decide which mask is best for you. - Page 7 (hose, sensor line, clips, proximal cuff) PN26923. Masks You will also need a ResMed mask system (supplied separately). For the latest available masks, see www.resmed.com. Please refer to the table on page 21 to set up your mask correctly for use with the VPAP Adapt SV. Your clinician can explain the features of the masks available and will discuss the mask that best suits your needs.

Page 8: Assembling The Vpap Adapt Sv System
There are two sockets at the rear of the flow generator—the top one for an AC (standard mains electricity) and the lower one for a DC power cord (see “Using DC Power to Run the VPAP Adapt SV” on page 15). ResMed recommends using the AC power cord supplied with the unit. - Page 9 Connect air tubing Connect the air tube firmly onto the air outlet at the front of the unit. Figure 4: Front view of VPAP Adapt SV To attach the pressure sensor tube to the unit, screw the Luer connector onto the socket on the side of the unit.

Page 10: Humidifiers
Humidifiers A humidifier may be required if you are experiencing dryness of the nose, throat, or mouth. The following ResMed humidifiers are compatible with the VPAP Adapt SV: HumidAire heated humidifier Humidifier accessory (HumidAire only) Figure 7: Humidifiers compatible with the VPAP Adapt SV When using a humidifier, stop the VPAP Adapt SV by using the Start/Stop key or by removing the mask to trigger the SmartStop function. - Page 11 HumidAire 2i™ The HumidAire 2i provides heated humidification for the VPAP Adapt SV. To attach the HumidAire 2i, remove the VPAP Adapt SV front cover and attach the humidifier docking station and water chamber. No other accessories are required for use. Please refer to the HumidAire 2i User’s Manual for details. Once you have performed the Air Circuit Learn function the VPAP Adapt SV is ready for use.
- Page 12 HumidAire™ You will need a medium size 21" (52 cm) air tube to connect the VPAP Adapt SV unit to the HumidAire™ (see Figure 7). Make sure both the HumidAire and the VPAP Adapt SV are turned off. Fill the HumidAire with water as described in the humidifier manual. Place the filled water chamber inside the HumidAire.
- Page 13 Connect the mask system to the free end of the long air tubing. The final assembly should look like this: Switch on the HumidAire and the VPAP Adapt SV. WARNING Make sure that the power cords and plugs are in good condition and the equipment is not damaged.

Page 14: Reslink
ResLink™ The ResLink is a device that records data onto a SmartMedia™ card during your therapy. The card can be returned to your clinician so that they can observe your progress and adjust flow generator parameters if necessary. The ResLink connects to the back of VPAP Adapt SV as shown. -
Page 15: Using Dc Power To Run The Vpap Adapt Sv
Using DC Power to Run the VPAP Adapt SV The VPAP Adapt SV can be run on DC in case of power failure. ResMed supplies separately a converter that allows a 12V or 24V battery to be connected to the DC input of the VPAP Adapt SV. -
