WELCOME
ENGLISH
WELCOME
Thank you for choosing the ResMed HUMIDAIRE 3i™ humidifier. The HUMIDAIRE 3i
is designed to humidify (moisten) the air delivered to your airway during CPAP
(continuous positive airway pressure) therapy. The H
UMIDAIRE 3i attaches to your
ResMed S8™ Series CPAP flow generator with a simple ‘click-in’ mechanism.
This user manual contains the information you need for the correct use of your
H
UMIDAIRE 3i.
WHAT IS THE HUMIDAIRE 3i?
The HUMIDAIRE 3i is designed to form a single unit with a ResMed CPAP flow
generator. The combined unit provides humidification during CPAP therapy, and can
make therapy more comfortable.
You may have experienced nasal congestion or dryness of the nose, mouth, or throat
during CPAP therapy. These symptoms are caused by dry climates, cold air
temperatures, the airflow delivered from your flow generator, or mouth leak. Moist air
may help relieve these symptoms of dryness.
Refer to your flow generator manual to see whether it is compatible with the
H
UMIDAIRE 3i. Contact your equipment supplier or ResMed office if you require
further information.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITY
You or the user of this system shall have sole responsibility and liability for any injury
to persons or damage to property resulting from:
operation which is not in accordance with the operating instructions supplied
maintenance or modifications carried out unless in accordance with authorized
instructions and by authorized persons.
Please read this manual carefully before use.
This manual contains special terms and icons that appear in the margins to draw your
attention to specific and important information.
Warning alerts you to possible injury.
Caution explains special measures for the safe and effective use of the device.
Note is an informative or helpful note.

MEDICAL INFORMATION
INTENDED USE
The HUMIDAIRE 3i is indicated for humidification of the air delivered from the ResMed
S8 Series CPAP devices. The H
UMIDAIRE 3i is for use only as recommended by a
physician.
!
CAUTION (USA ONLY)
Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
The HUMIDAIRE 3i is contraindicated for use with patients whose upper (supraglottic)
airway has been bypassed. Please also refer to the relevant system manual for
contraindications associated with CPAP therapy.
WARNINGS
The following are general warnings. Specific warnings and cautions appear next to the
relevant instructions in the manual.
!
WARNINGS
Use the HUMIDAIRE 3i only for its intended use as described in this manual.
Make sure that the water chamber is empty before transporting the
H
UMIDAIRE 3i.
The HUMIDAIRE 3i is designed only for use with specific ResMed CPAP devices.
Do not use the H
UMIDAIRE 3i with any other CPAP device.
The HUMIDAIRE 3i should only be used with delivery tubes or accessories
recommended by ResMed. Connection of other delivery tubes or accessories
could result in injury, or damage to the device.
The HUMIDAIRE 3i, including the associated tubing, is for single-patient use and
must not be re-used on another person. This is to avoid the risk of cross-infection.
Always place the HUMIDAIRE 3i device lower than the level of the patient. If it is
placed at or above the level of the patient, heated water may flow down the air
tubing and into the mask.
There exists the possibility that if the device is placed above the level of the patient
and is tipped over, or if the tubing is filled with condensate, the mask might fill with
water. The H
UMIDAIRE 3i should therefore be used with caution in patients who
are unable to guard their airways, or are unable to pull the mask off, for example
following a stroke. Attention should be given to the relative risks and benefits.
Do not attempt to dismantle the HUMIDAIRE 3i docking station. There are no
user-serviceable parts inside. Repairs and internal servicing should only be
performed by an authorized service agent.
Take care when handling the HUMIDAIRE 3i. The heater plate and the water in the
water chamber may be hot.

COMPONENTS OF YOUR HUMIDAIRE 3i
ENGLISH
If liquids are inadvertently spilled into or on the HUMIDAIRE 3i docking station,
unplug the CPAP device from the power outlet. Disconnect the docking station
from the CPAP device and allow the docking station to drain and dry before using.
Do not operate the HUMIDAIRE 3i if the CPAP device has a damaged power cord
or plug.
Do not operate the HUMIDAIRE 3i if it is not working properly or if any part of it
has been dropped or damaged.
Keep the CPAP device power cord away from heated surfaces.
Do not drop or insert any object into any opening or tubes.
Do not use the HUMIDAIRE 3i in the presence of flammable or explosive
materials.
Explosion hazard—do not use in the vicinity of flammable anesthetics.
If oxygen is used with this device, the oxygen flow must be turned off when the
device is not operating.
If oxygen has been left on, turn off the flow generator, then wait 30 minutes before
turning on the flow generator again.
Explanation: When the CPAP device is not in operation and the oxygen flow is
left on, oxygen delivered into the air delivery tubing may accumulate within the
CPAP machine enclosure and create a risk of fire. This applies to most types of
CPAP machines.
Oxygen supports combustion. Oxygen should not be used while you are
smoking or in the presence of an open flame.
Always ensure airflow is being generated by the device before the oxygen
supply is turned on.
Always turn the oxygen supply off before stopping the airflow from the device.
Note: At a fixed rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled oxygen concentration
will vary, depending on where the oxygen is introduced, the pressure settings, patient
breathing pattern, mask selection and leak rate.
COMPONENTS OF YOUR HUMIDAIRE 3i
Please refer to the illustrations in section A of the illustration sheet.

Turn the humidity control dial to the desired setting. The setting switches heated
humidification off and delivers minimum humidification. The indicator light will remain
lit to indicate standby mode. A setting of 6 ( ) delivers maximum humidification.
We recommend that you initially set the control dial to 3 ( ). If necessary, adjust the
control dial up or down to find the setting that is most comfortable and effective for
you. You can adjust the humidity setting at any time.
The aim is to have moist air delivered to your mask but to avoid condensation forming
in the air tubing. The temperature and humidity of the surrounding air will affect the
setting you need.
See “Frequently Asked Questions” for further tips on the correct humidity setting.
4
Fit your mask as described in your mask user instructions.
5
Press the Start/Stop key on the control panel. Alternatively, if your flow generator
has the SmartStart function available, simply breathe into your mask and air should
begin to flow.

element is active. Your HumidAire 3i has a rapid heating element which allows very short
heating times. Do not be concerned if the light only brightens very briefly.
6
Lie down and arrange the air tubing so that it is free to move if you turn in your sleep.
!
WARNING
Do not leave an excessive length of air tubing around the top of your bed. It could
twist around your head or neck while you are sleeping.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHY IS THERE CONDENSATION IN MY MASK AND/OR AIR TUBING?
You may experience excessive condensation in your mask or air tubing. This may occur
seasonally, particularly when the room temperature is low or cool air is circulating
around the tube. Turn the control dial down to a lower setting until the condensation
decreases.
You may have to adjust your humidity setting from season to season.
DO I HAVE TO USE DISTILLED WATER IN THE WATER CHAMBER?
Using distilled water will maximize the life of the water chamber and reduce mineral
deposits. See “Cleaning your HumidAire 3i” on page 11 for further details.

W
HAT IF I STILL HAVE SYMPTOMS OF DRYNESS?
If you still experience symptoms of dryness, then your humidity setting may be set too
low to be effective. Gradually turn the humidity control dial up over a few nights until
the symptoms disappear.
If you are still experiencing symptoms of dryness, even after increasing the humidity
setting, you may be breathing through your mouth. Mouth breathing or mouth leaks
cause drying and irritation of the upper airway. If this is a problem, a full face mask or
chin strap may help. Consult your clinician or equipment supplier for details.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
You should regularly carry out the cleaning and maintenance of the water chamber,
cover and cover seal as described in this section.
