Cleaning the Air Inlet Filter
Respironics recommends that you clean the air inlet filter weekly. Wash the air
inlet filter, located in the zippered compartment on the end of the device case.
Your home care provider may advise you to clean it more often depending on
your operating conditions.
Follow these steps to properly clean the air inlet filter.
Figure 21 Removing the air inlet filter for cleaning.
1.
Remove the filter, as shown above, and wash it in a solution of
warm water and mild liquid dish detergent.
2.
Rinse the filter thoroughly in warm water. Remove excess moisture
by placing the filter in a soft absorbent towel and gently squeezing
the filter dry. Allow it to air dry thoroughly. Ensure that the filter
is completely dry before putting it back in the device.
If you have a second air inlet filter on hand, insert this clean, dry filter into
the carrying case while cleaning the dirty filter.
3.
Place the dry filter in the zippered compartment and zip the
compartment shut.
Caution: Do not operate the device without the air inlet filter in place.
