Using Oxygen - Hoffrichter point 2 User Manual

Using oxygen

Please note:
• Before using oxygen, the safety instructions as of page 23 must be read.
• The use of oxygen affects the therapeutic pressure. For this reason, we recommend
the use of oxygen already during the titration process.
• If the device is in standby mode or switched off, the oxygen supply must always
be switched off.
When supplying oxygen, please use a kink-resistant tube made of a medically appro-
ved material. In order to prevent back flow of oxygen into the device, we recommend
the use of an O pressure valve.
