The provided context does not mention using an iPhone to turn the Inspire Sleep Remote on or off. It states that if your remote does not pair with your phone via Bluetooth or if you do not track your sleep with the Inspire app, you will need to bring your remote to your doctor's appointment. However, it does not confirm whether an iPhone can be used to turn the device on or off.

The Inspire Sleep Remote may not activate due to the following reasons:
1. Therapy is Off – The device may not have been turned on. Check the sleep remote’s status ring; if it is white, therapy is off. Turn therapy on again.
2. Electronic Interference – Other electronic devices may be interfering with communication between the sleep remote and the generator. Move away from other electronic devices and try again.
3. Delayed or Paused Stimulation – If the status ring is slowly dimming and brightening green, therapy is on but stimulation is paused. Stimulation will start automatically after the Start Delay or pause time.
4. Low Stimulation Strength – If the status ring is solid green but no stimulation is felt, the stimulation strength might be set too low. You may need to increase the stimulation strength.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, further troubleshooting may be needed.

In the battery compartment there is what appears to be a charging port. How can this be used? Can charging it take the place of batteries or charge batteries? Mine is a Model 2500 Inspire

The charging port in the battery compartment of the Inspire Model 2500 Sleep Remote should not be used to connect anything. It does not replace or charge batteries. The remote uses two AAA or LR03 alkaline batteries, which must be replaced when needed. Rechargeable batteries should not be used.

About This Manual This manual provides information on using and maintaining your Inspire Sleep Remote. The sleep remote should only be used according to the instructions in this manual and the instructions provided by your doctor. This manual also contains information about Inspire therapy.
2. Inspire Therapy You have received an Inspire system to deliver Inspire Upper Airway Stimulation (UAS) therapy. Your doctor prescribed UAS therapy to treat your sleep apnea. For more information about your Inspire system, refer to your Inspire Patient Manual.
When you are preparing to go to sleep, you will use your sleep remote to turn your therapy on. You will feel a brief stimulation confirming that therapy has been turned on. After the confirmation, stimulation is delayed so you have time to fall asleep.
When the delay time has passed, the Inspire system delivers mild stimulation to the nerve that controls your tongue movement (the hypoglossal nerve) as it senses breathing. The stimulation causes the upper airway muscles to stiffen, preventing airway blockages. The therapy does not wait for an apnea to occur before delivering stimulation.

1. Move away from the equipment or object. 2. If possible, turn off the equipment or object. 3. Use the sleep remote to turn your therapy off. 4. If the above actions do not resolve the effects of the interference, or you suspect that your therapy is not the same after exposure to interference, contact your doctor.
4. Using Your Sleep Remote Your sleep remote allows you to turn your therapy on before you go to sleep, off during waking hours, and pause therapy if you wake and need time to fall back to sleep. It also allows you to adjust the stimulation strength within a range determined by your doctor.
