Replacing the Air Filter

To replace the air filter:
1. Remove the air filter cover at the back of the VPAP Auto.
2. Remove and discard the old air filter.
3. Insert a new filter with the blue tinted side facing out from the device.
4. Replace the air filter cover.
Inspect the air filter every month to check if it is blocked by dirt or contains holes.

months (or more often if your device is in a dusty environment).
