15General Warnings and Cautions

English

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.

• Do not use the S8 Series II if there are obvious external defects or

unexplained changes in performance.

• Do not open the S8 Series II case. There are no user serviceable parts inside.

Repairs and internal servicing should only be performed by an authorized

service agent.

• Explosion hazard—do not use in the vicinity of flammable anesthetics.

CAUTIONS

• At low pressures, the flow through the exhalation ports of your mask may not

clear all exhaled gas from the tubing. Some rebreathing may occur.

• The airflow for breathing produced by this device can be as much as 11ºF

(6ºC) higher than the temperature of the room. Caution should be exercised if

the room temperature is warmer than 90ºF (32ºC).

• When AC mains power (100–240V AC) is not available, always use a ResMed

DC-12 converter. (The DC-12 converter is available as an optional accessory. It

is not supplied with all models.)

Note: The above are general warnings and cautions. Specific warnings,

cautions, and notes appear with the relevant instructions in the manual.
