Error Mesaage "Check Tube! Key If Done"

Post by dclempa » Tue Apr 21, 2009 3:19 pm

I have only had my Resmwd Elite II for one month and the machine actually stops and an error message
comes up saying "Check Tube! Key If Done" According to the User Manual, something is suppose to be
wrong with tube like bockage or leak. It has stopped three times in the middle of my sleep. It works for
about 20 minutes and then stops. Also I have been feeling a little dizzy and my stomach feels wierd.
The sleep doctor set my pressure at 18. The max of course is 20. I know 18 is high but I wonder what
the average person's pressure is???
Thanks for any replys!!!

Is there any leaking? what does your machine report for your leak rate?

I would try turning on the leak alert feature to see if you are getting leak problems.

Assuming you have checked out the hose connections are the mask and machine end are ok I would return it.

I have the same machine, set to 16. Same error message after one month of use. Shuts off after 20 minutes. Can anyone help?

Hi, I have the same machine you have. My titrated pressure is set to 12. I have been using my machine since January and have never had a problem with it. If it were me I would be calling my DME and taking the machine in. If you cant get the machine to come up with the same error message in the DME's office I would at least ask them to loan me a different machine til mine was either looked at and fixed or til I was given a new replacement machine.
I dont suffer from insanity.... I enjoy every minute of it!
