Operating
and Storage
Temperatures
The device may only be operated at temperatures between 5˚ C and
40˚ C (41˚ F and 104˚ F).
Do not operate the device in direct sunlight or near a heating
appliance because these conditions can increase the temperature of
the airow delivered to the patient.
Prolonged operation or storage at elevated temperatures may reduce
the service life of the battery and other internal components of the
ventilator.
The ventilator has an internal and detachable Lithium-Ion Battery. Do
not expose the device or detachable battery to temperatures above
40˚ C (104˚ F) during use, or above 60˚ C (140˚ F) during storage. This
will reduce battery life and may increase the risk of re or damage the
battery.
Condensation Condensation may aect operation or accuracy of the device. If the
device has been exposed to either very hot or very cold temperatures
during storage, allow it to adjust to ambient temperature before
starting therapy.
Air Filter The reusable foam inlet lter is required to protect the ventilator from
dirt and dust. Wash periodically and replace when damaged for proper
operation.
Cooling Air Vents Do not block the cooling air vents located on the base and the rear
of the device. This may cause the device to overheat in high ambient
temperatures or at high therapy settings.
Battery Life The internal and detachable batteries wear out based on the amount
of use (hours or full charge-discharge cycles). The battery capacity and
life are also reduced by operation at higher temperatures.
Detachable Battery Only use the Philips Respironics Trilogy Detachable Battery with the
ventilator.
Cleaning Do not steam autoclave the ventilator. Doing so will destroy the
ventilator.
Do not immerse the device in liquid or allow any liquid to enter the
enclosure or inlet lter.
Do not spray water or any other solutions directly onto the ventilator.
Do not use harsh detergents, abrasive cleaners, or brushes to clean the
ventilator system. Use only cleaning agents and methods listed in this
manual.
