Yep! Sure do......

Oh.....did YOU want to know how, too? (sorry, it's been one of those weeks)

Here ya go.

Den



ResMed cpap S6

1. machine must be shut off
2. press START and TIMER 20 MINUTES buttons at the same time
3. switch on machine using master switch at the backside of the machine
4. using TIMER 5 MINUTES and TIMER 10 MINUTES buttons increase or decrease pressure (pressure setting is shown on display at reverse side of machine)
5. complete setting by pushing STOP button once
6. now the machine is set to the new pressure and will remember that when being shut off on switched on again

pressure adjustment

Yes I have adjusted the pressure on this machine before.

I think I held down two buttons while plugging the machine cord in the wall outlet. I do not remember which two it was but perhaps the 5 and 20 min ramp buttons?

Good luck
If you cannot figure it out, I will get more exact instructions for you.

resmed s6 elite versus remstar plus M series

Post by mrchirpy » Sat Jan 05, 2008 12:47 pm

I also have an old resmed s6 elite that was set at 13 and my new remstar is at 15. I find the remstar very noisy. Has anyone else encountered this? also can you further explain how to reset the resmed. my left hand side range is in two's 2, 4, 6, 12 etc. How do I get to 15?

Thanks.
