2.1 Safety instructions

Operating the unit

Caution!
• The power supply supplied allows the unit to be operated at volt-
ages between 115 V and 230 V. Check that your supply voltage
falls within this range. With a 12 V DC or 24 V DC supply, use the
WM 24469 DC adapter available as an accessory.
• CPAP 20e must be connected to an easily accessible socket so
that the mains plug can be quickly removed in the event of a
power failure.
• Do not cover the unit or power supply. Do not use in the vicinity
of a heater or in direct sunlight. The unit may overheat, resulting
in insufficient therapy delivery and damage to the unit.
• Maintain a safe distance between the CPAP 20e and equipment
that emits HF radiation (e.g. mobile phones). This unit may other-
wise malfunction (see page 44). If CPAP 20e interferes with other
equipment (e.g. a radio), put the CPAP 20e further away from the
equipment.
Caution!
• Do not use the therapy unit or humidifier if the unit is malfunc-
tioning, parts are damaged and/or the contact between the
humidifier and the heater rod is damp.
