Introduction; Intended Use; Indications For Use; Contraindication - DeVilbiss Healthcare SleepCube DV53 Mode D'emploi

• If the system is placed on the floor, do not position it where it may be stepped on when getting out of bed.
CAUTION
• The circular data port connector, located on the back of the SleepCube, is used to attach accessories to the device.
The connector must only be used with accessories approved for use by DeVilbiss. Do not attempt to attach any other
device to this connector, as it may damage the CPAP or the accessory device.
• Never rinse or place the device in water. Never allow liquids to get into or around any of the ports, switches or air
filter. Doing so will result in device damage. If this occurs, discontinue use and remove the power cord from the
power source. Allow the device to completely dry before use.
• Do not place the SleepCube where it can be knocked onto the floor, or where the power cord may create a tripping
hazard.
• Only the DeVilbiss DV5 series Heated Humidifier system is recommended for use with the SleepCube. Other
humidifier systems may prevent the device from detecting snoring and may cause inappropriate pressure levels in
the mask.
• Empty and dry humidifier water chamber before transporting.
