2. SETTING UP AIRVO 2

H O

1. BEFORE YOU BEGIN
The AIRVO 2 should be fixed on a pole mounting tray (900PT405) below
patient head height. Position the device so the power cord connection to
the power supply is easily accessible and able to be disconnected. Open
the packaging of the tube & chamber kit (heated breathing tube, MR290
auto-fill chamber and adapter).
2. INSTALL WATER CHAMBER
Remove the blue port caps from the chamber by pulling the tear tab
upwards then remove the bracket holding the water supply tube.
Fit the supplied adapter over the two vertical ports on the chamber and
push on fully then clip the water supply tube into position.
Fit the water chamber to the unit by pressing down the finger guard and
sliding the chamber on, carefully aligning with the blue chamber port
ends.
Push the chamber on firmly until the finger guard clicks into place.
WARNINGS
To avoid burns:
• Do not start the unit without the water chamber in place.
• Do not touch the heater plate, water chamber or chamber base during use.
• The water in the chamber becomes hot during use. Exercise caution when
removing and emptying the chamber.
To avoid electric shock:
• When handling the unit with the water chamber in place, avoid tilting the
machine to prevent any chance of water entering the unit enclosure.
• Empty all the water from the water chamber before transporting the unit.
CAUTIONS
To ensure optimal therapy (MR290 only):
• Do not use the auto-fill MR290 chamber if it has been dropped or been allowed
to run dry this could lead to the chamber over filling.
3. CONNECT WATER BAG
Attach the sterile water bag to the hanging bracket 20cm (8") above the
unit, and push the bag spike into the fitting at the bottom of the bag.
Open the vent cap on the side of the bag spike. The chamber will now
automatically fill to the required level and maintain that level until the
water bag is empty.
To ensure continual humidification, always ensure that the water chamber
and/or water bag are not allowed to run out of water.
CAUTION
Adding substances other than water can adversely affect the humidifier and
delivered therapy.
Check that water flows into the chamber and is maintained below the
maximum water level line. If the water level rises above the maximum
water level line, replace the chamber immediately.

CAUTIONS
To ensure optimal therapy (MR290 only):
• Do not use the MR290 chamber if the water level rises above the maximum water
level line as this may lead to water entering the patient's airway.
