Turn auto on to off

Post by GuestJB » Wed Dec 05, 2007 2:02 pm

I have a RemStar Pro M Series CPAP machine. It automatically turns on as soon as I put my mask on. How can I change this setting?

You can't. It's a safety feature.

The Auto Off can be disabled but the Auto On you are stuck with, it can't be changed.

Actually, you can disable the auto-on feature by not breathing.
I don't suggest doing it for long, though.

You could always remove your mask from the 6' air hose to adjust it, then "plug" it back in to start the machine up.

Thank You,
