How do I adjust the humidity and ramp time comfort features on my AirCurve 11?

Your AirCurve 11 machine has been set up for your needs by your medical equipment supplier—the PAP store where you picked up your equipment. But it’s understandable you may want to make small adjustments based on your comfort needs. Here are some tips on how to adjust the comfort settings.

On your AirCurve 11 machine, rotate the dial to highlight My Options and press the dial to see your current settings. From here, you can personalize your options.

Humidity Level

The humidifier moistens the air and is designed to make your therapy more comfortable. With the Climate Control enhanced Auto setting‡, both temperature and humidity are automatically preset at levels designed for maximum comfort; all you have to do is plug it in and press Start.

You can also manually set the Humidity Level to Off or between 1 and 8, where 1 is the lowest humidity setting and 8 is the highest humidity setting. Note: if you’re using a ClimateLineAir™ heated tube, you will need to turn the Climate Control setting on your device from “Auto” to “Manual” to access the humidity level setting.

If you’re getting a dry nose or mouth, turn up the humidity.

If you’re getting any moisture in your mask, turn down the humidity.

How to adjust humidity:

In My Options, select Humidity Level. Scroll and select the desired humidity level.

Ramp Time

Ramp Time is designed to make the beginning of therapy more comfortable and is the period during which the airflow pressure increases from a low start pressure to your prescribed treatment pressure. You can set your Ramp Time to Off, from 5 to 45 minutes.

How to adjust Ramp Time:

In My Options, select Ramp Time and adjust to your preferred setting.
