For optimal accuracy and synchrony, perform Learn Circuit with a change of the
circuit configuration, in particular when adding or removing high impedance
components (eg, antibacterial filter, external humidifier, water trap, nasal pillow

CAUTION
Check the air circuit for water condensation. Use a water trap or a tubing wrap if
humidification is causing water condensation within the tube.

Setting up for invasive use
The Stellar can be used invasively only with the ResMed leak port and an uncuffed or
deflated cuff tracheostomy tube.

The H4i is contraindicated for invasive use. An external humidifier approved for
invasive use is recommended according to EN ISO 8185 with an absolute
humidity of > 33 mg/L.
