If supplemental oxygen is used with the device, the oxygen flow must be turned off when the device is not operating. This ensures that
oxygen will not flow through the heated breathing tube and accumulate in the device enclosure.
•  The device should be located in a position where ventilation around the device is not restricted.
•  It is recommended that supplemental oxygen be administered at the mask.
•  Oxygen should not be used while smoking or in the presence of an open flame.
•  The use of oxygen in therapy requires that special care be taken to reduce the risk of fire. Any materials which will burn in air and
some that will not are easily ignited and burn rapidly in high concentrations of oxygen. Accordingly, for safety it is necessary that all
sources of ignition be kept away from the product and preferably out of the room in which it is being used.
•  A spontaneous and violent ignition may occur if oil, grease or greasy substances come in contact with oxygen under pressure. These
substances must be kept away from oxygen regulators, cylinder valves, tubing and connections, and all other oxygen equipment.
•  At a fixed flow rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled oxygen concentration will vary, depending on the pressure settings,
patient breathing pattern, mask selection and leak rate.

PLEASE NOTE:- This manual refers to the SleepStyle™ 600 CPAP Series 
unit as “the device”.
1.  The device should only be used with masks, connectors and
delivery tubes recommended by Fisher & Paykel Healthcare,
or by your physician or respiratory therapist.
2.  Never operate the device if:
a) it has a damaged power cord or plug, b) the heated
breathing tube has been damaged with holes, tears or kinks,
c) it has been dropped or damaged, d) it has been dropped
into water, e) it is not working properly, f) it is connected to a
PC during CPAP treatment.
Return the device to an authorised service center for
examination and repair.
3.  Do not use the device when the room temperature exceeds 35
°C (95 °F) as this may lead to an elevated airflow temperature
which may give rise to an irritation of the airways.
4.  Ensure an air filter is fitted when operating your unit.
5.  Remove  the  humidification  chamber  before  filling.  Do  not  fill
water through the heated breathing tube connection.
6.  Do not fill the chamber with boiling water.
7.  When handling or operating the device, avoid tipping the
machine to prevent any chance of water entering the unit
enclosure. If this does occur, immediately disconnect the
power cord and discontinue use. Seek advice from your
homecare provider.
8.  Place your device on a level surface lower than your head
height to prevent water entering the respiratory tubing should
the device be knocked over.
9.  Do not store or use your device where it can fall or be pulled
into water. If water has entered the unit enclosure, disconnect
the power cord and discontinue use. Seek advice from your
homecare provider.
10.  Never block the air openings of the device or place it on a soft
surface such as a bed or couch, where the filter area may be
blocked. Keep the air openings free of lint, hair or the like.
11.  Ensure that the unit is dry before plugging into the power
socket.
12.  A mask should not be used unless the device is switched on,
and operating properly. The vent hole(s) associated with the
mask should never be blocked.
13.  Due to the operating temperature of the heater plate, avoid
making contact to the exposed heater plate or chamber base.
14.  Ensure the water has cooled before emptying the chamber.
15.  At low CPAP pressures, the flow through the mask may be
insufficient to clear all exhaled gas from the tubing, and
consequently some re-breathing may occur.
16.  Adjusting the pressure control can result in ineffective therapy.
The pressure control must only be adjusted by a healthcare
professional.
17.  Never drop or insert any object into any opening or heated
breathing tube.
18.  Always switch off the device and unplug the power cord from
the power socket before cleaning.
19.  Empty all the water from the chamber before transporting
your device.
20.  To remove the heated breathing tube, always push the sleeve
up to avoid tube damage.
21.  Refer all maintenance to qualified service personnel except as
outlined in this manual.
22.  Do not use an insulating sleeve or any similar accessories
which are not approved by Fisher & Paykel Healthcare.
These may affect the humidification performance.

The device is used to assist with patient breathing while sleeping for the purpose of treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). This is done
by the delivery of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) in order to prevent airway obstruction. The addition of heated respiratory
humidification to the device relieves the drying and irritating effects on the patient airways which usually arises from use of a CPAP system.
The device is for use on adult patients at home or in the sleep lab. Please refer to the SleepStyle™ 600-Series product range listed in the
appendix section of this manual.
