international power changes
Your DeVilbiss IntelliPAP is equipped with a universal power supply. This means that it is automatically capable of
accepting line voltages of 100 to 240V~ 50/60Hz. You do not need to make any adjustments to the device if you are
traveling to another country where the line voltage is different than your domestic line voltage. Simply contact your
equipment provider for the correct style power cord for the region in which you will be traveling (refer to Accessories/
Replacement Items for the correct part number).
altitude
Your IntelliPAP automatically compensates for changes in altitude between sea level and 9000 ft (2750 m). You do not
need to make adjustments to the device for changes in altitude.

Battery power

Your IntelliPAP can be operated from a 12V DC power source in a motor home, boat or other recreational vehicle using the
12V DC cable. Alternatively you can power your IntelliPAP using a 12V DC stand alone battery with a DC battery clamp on
adapter and 12V DC cable. All cables are available from your equipment provider (refer to Accessories/Replacement Items
for the correct part numbers). The stand alone battery connection uses clamps that attach to the terminal connections of
the battery.
NOTE–The heater for the IntelliPAP's humidification system will not operate directly from a 12V DC power source. If you
need humidification, non-heated humidification is still available. Alternately, instead of connecting12V DC power directly to
the IntelliPAP, you can pass the DC power through an inverter that will deliver AC power to the system. This will allow the
heater to function. The power rating of the inverter must be at least 200 watts @ 110V~ / 400 watts @ 220V~.
NOTE–The IntelliPAP will automatically switch power sources between AC and 12V DC if both sources are available. If
your unit is connected to both AC and 12V DC power sources, it will operate on AC power as long as AC power is present,
and automatically switch to 12V DC power if AC power is lost. When AC power is restored, it will return to the AC source.
You do not need to reset or adjust any settings when the power source switches, but remember that your heater will not
operate on 12V DC.

WarNiNG-oXYGeN use
• Oxygen supports combustion. To avoid possible physical injury, do not smoke while using this device with
supplemental oxygen. Do not use this device near hot objects, volatile substances or sources of open flames.
• Always turn on the IntelliPAP before turning on the oxygen source. Turn off the oxygen source before turning off the
IntelliPAP.
• This device is not suitable for use in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture.
• At a fixed flow rate of supplemental oxygen, the inhaled oxygen concentration will vary depending on the pressure
setting, patient breathing pattern, mask selection, and leak rate. This warning applies to most types of CPAP devices.
• Never allow the oxygen source to run continuously while connected to the IntelliPAP if the device is not in use. If the
IntelliPAP is not being used, turn off the oxygen flow.
cautioN
• Oxygen is a prescribed gas and should only be administered under the supervision of a physician.
• The flow setting of the oxygen source must be specified by a physician.
Supplemental oxygen is sometimes prescribed in addition to CPAP for treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea. If your
physician prescribed oxygen for your sleep therapy, you can add the oxygen in one of two ways:
1. Obtain the optional oxygen adapter (part #7353D-601) from your homecare provider and connect it to the air supply
port on the IntelliPAP. Connect one end of the air supply tubing to the open end of the adapter and the other end of the
air supply tubing to the mask.
2. If your mask is equipped with an oxygen port, your physician may request that you apply oxygen directly to your mask.
