cpap problem

Post by ainsle14 » Sat Apr 18, 2020 7:27 am

hi; i have slight to moderate sleep apnea. i tried using a CPAP machine 4 years ago. a remstar aflex auto m series .i could not get used to the mask. the last few days i decided to try the cpap machine again. it's not working. maybe i am doing something wrong . not turning it on right or something . there is a beeping sound coming out of it. i looked on google. it said trying remove the humidifier or check the filter. each did not work. maybe sitting for awhile ruined it?? i do not know. i can't remember the proper sequence in turning it on. do you press the power buttom and then it will automatically come on? thanks

Go here and request the clinical/provider manual for the M series machine

It has some trouble shooting tips in it.

I would like to add, "Welcome back!"
Kudos for putting your health ahead of whatever caused you to give up the last time.
