New User Looking for Answers

Post by Ross2 » Fri Mar 17, 2017 12:30 am

Hello Everyone I was hoping to get a couple questions answered about my new Airsense 10 Autoset for her. I just got it today and have used it already, I woke up about 2 hours ago turned off the unit but its still running. Like if cooling the air hose or something, I'm not sure what to do. I also wanted to go back to bed now and am not sure if I can turn the unit back on so soon? If anyone could help that would much appreciated. Thank You

yes it keeps running to dry the hose ... it will stop soon .... and yes you can turn it back on now .
If you're not part of the solution you're just scumming up the bottom of the beaker!

I have been corrected by another in a PM .. "wm_hess"

the cool down cycle should only last for about 20 minutes, if it continues to run for 2 hrs. after it is turned off, then there may be a problem with it.

from the manual :

Therapy has stopped, but the device is still blowing air
Device is cooling down.
Device blows a small amount of air in order to avoid
condensation in the air tubing. It will stop automatically after
20 minutes.

also keep reading here and get Sleepyhead software to evaluate your therapy,
