changes to the flow setting. Adjust the level of oxygen from the oxygen
source as necessary.
Check water The chamber has run out of water.
When a chamber runs dry, the chamber float may be damaged. Replace the
chamber and water bag.

WARNINGS
• A hazard can exist if different alarm presets are used on different units within any single area, eg. an intensive care unit.
• Alarm limits set to extreme values can render the alarm system useless.
CHECKING ALARM SYSTEM FUNCTIONALITY
The functionality of the alarm system can be checked at any time when the unit is turned on.
Remove the heated breathing tube. You should see the "Check tube" visual alarm signal and hear the
auditory alarm signal. If either alarm signal is absent, do not use the unit and refer to the AIRVO 2 Technical
Manual for a guide on troubleshooting. If problems persist, contact your Fisher & Paykel Healthcare
representative.
