1. Introduction

This manual should be used for initial set up of the system and saved for reference purpose.

1.1 General Information

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a condition that an intermitted and repetitive obstruction of the

upper respiratory tract causes a complete (apnea) or partial (hypopnea) block of breathing airflow

during sleep. The syndrome varies depending on the degree of relaxation of the tongue and soft

palate muscle.

The most common treatment for OSA is Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP). CPAP devices can

deliver a constant air pressure into your upper airway via a nasal mask. This constant air pressure

can keep your airway open during sleep, therefore prevents the OSA.

This device is a micro-processor controlled continuous positive airway pressure device. It features

the illuminated, menu-driven LCD display, universal power supply and ramp time adjustment. The

ramp time adjustment and ultra quiet operation ensure you to fall asleep comfortably while air

pressure slowly builds up to treatment level. The user compliance meter records the total system’s

operating time for physician’s reference.

The system has been tested and successfully approved to the following standards:

IEC/EN 60601-1

IEC/EN 60601-1-2

IEC/EN 61000-3-2 Class A

IEC/EN 61000-3-3
