WARNINGS
•Read the entire manual before using these devices.
•Use these devices only for their intended use as described in this manual.
•Do not open the S9. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Repairs and servicing should only be performed by
an authorised ResMed service agent.
•Beware of electrocution. Do not immerse the S9 device, power supply or power cord in water. Always unplug the
device before cleaning and make sure it is dry before plugging it back in.
•Do not use bleach, chlorine, alcohol, or aromatic-based solutions, moisturising or antibacterial soaps or scented oils
to clean the S9 or air tubing. These solutions may cause damage and reduce the life of these products.

•Do not drop or insert any object into any tubing or opening.
•Do not leave long lengths of air tubing around the top of your bed. It could twist around your head or neck while you
are sleeping.
•Advice contained in this manual should not supersede instructions given by the prescribing physician.
•Do not use your S9 if there are obvious external defects or unexplained changes in performance.
•Only ResMed air tubing and accessories should be used with these devices. A different type of air tubing or
accessory may alter the pressure you actually receive, reducing the effectiveness of your treatment.
•Blocking the air tubing and/or air inlet of the S9 device while in operation could lead to overheating of the device.
•If your clinician has told you to use the SD card to update the settings on your device and the “Settings updated
successfully” message does not appear, contact your clinician immediately.
