Your AirCurve 11 machine has already been set up for your needs when you receive it. But if you want to make small adjustments, here’s how to do it.

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.

A bilevel PAP prescription is required for an AirCurve 11. Cost and coverage vary by insurance provider and plan. Once your doctor has provided you with a prescription, contact your insurance provider to learn more about what’s covered under your plan. 

Sleep Doctor can help you obtain a prescription renewal at no extra charge if your prescription has expired or is not accessible. Just place your order and follow the instructions provided to schedule a complimentary virtual consultation with a board-certified sleep specialist.

You should clean your machine weekly. The following can be used as guidance for cleaning your machine; full cleaning instructions can also be found in the machine’s user guide.

Supplies you’ll need to clean your machine:

• Sink or tub
• Warm, drinking-quality water (86°F / 30°C)
• Mild soap
• Clean towel

Weekly step-by-step cleaning instructions:

1. Unplug the machine. 
2. Wash the water tub and air tubing in warm water using mild detergent. Do not wash in a dishwasher or washing machine.
3. Rinse the water tub and air tubing thoroughly.
4. Allow it to dry out of direct sunlight and/or heat.
5. Wipe the exterior of the device with a dry cloth or towel.

Ozone or UV light products have not been validated for use with the mask and may lead to discoloration or damage. Resmed has observed that prolonged and repeated use of an ozone device may eventually cause internal damage to a Resmed machine, leading to an increase in motor noise. 

Always follow cleaning instructions as stated in the User Guide. The Resmed limited warranty excludes damage to Resmed machines caused by use of ozone devices.

It’s important to regularly inspect, clean and replace your PAP supplies, which can be affected by dirt and general wear. You should regularly check the water tub, air tubing and air filter for any signs of wear or damage. Here are some replacement tips for your PAP parts:

Water tub:

• Replace if it begins leaking or has become cracked, cloudy or pitted.
• Replace if the seal is cracked or torn.
• Remove any white powder deposits using a solution of one part household vinegar to 10 parts water.

Air tubing:

• Replace if there are any holes, tears or cracks.

Air filter:

• PAP air filters can wear out or become clogged over time, potentially exposing you to airborne particles, mold and bacteria. We recommend checking them twice per month.

Check with your insurance provider to see what replacement parts are covered under your plan and how often you can replace them.

Make sure that Bluetooth® is enabled on your smartphone and then log in to the myAir app and follow the prompts to connect to the AirCurve 11 machine. If you don’t see the four-digit key on the AirCurve 11 screen, go to the Home menu and tap +More, and then tap myAir.
