The owner or user of this system shall have sole responsibility and liability for any injury
to persons or damage to property resulting from:
•
•
operation which is not in accordance with the operating instructions supplied
maintenance or modifications carried out unless in accordance with authorized
instructions and by authorized persons.
Please read this manual carefully before use.

MEDICAL INFORMATION
ABOUT THE S8 ESCAPE™
The S8 ESCAPE continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) system is indicated for the

CONTRAINDICATIONS
The S8 ESCAPE is not a life support device and may stop operating during power failure
or certain fault conditions. It should not be used by patients who are dependent on
continuous therapy.
Positive airway pressure therapy may be contraindicated in some patients with the
following pre-existing conditions:
•
•
•
•
•
severe bullous lung disease
pneumothorax
pathologically low blood pressure
dehydration
cerebrospinal fluid leak, recent cranial surgery, or trauma.
WARNINGS
•
Read the entire manual before using the S8 ESCAPE.
•
Advice contained in this manual should not supersede instructions given by the
prescribing physician.
•
•
A patient should not connect a device to the data communication port unless
instructed to do so by their health care provider or physician. Only ResMed
products are designed to be connected to the data communication port.
Connecting other devices could result in injury, or damage to the S8 ESCAPE
device.
The S8 ESCAPE should only be used with masks (and connectors)* recommended
by ResMed, or by a physician or respiratory therapist. A mask should not be used
unless the S8 ESCAPE device is turned on and operating properly. The vent hole or
holes associated with the mask should never be blocked.
Explanation: The S8 ESCAPE is intended to be used with special masks (or
connectors)* which have vent holes to allow continuous flow of air out of the
mask. When the device is turned on and functioning properly, new air from the
device flushes the exhaled air out through the mask vent holes.
However, when the device is not operating, insufficient fresh air will be provided
through the mask, and the exhaled air may be rebreathed. Rebreathing of exhaled
air for longer than several minutes can, in some circumstances, lead to suffocation.
This applies to most models of CPAP devices.
•
•
In the event of power failure or machine malfunction, remove the mask.
The S8 ESCAPE can be set to deliver pressures up to 20 cm H2O. In the unlikely
event of certain fault conditions, pressures up to 30 cm H2O are possible.
*
Ports may be incorporated into the mask or in connectors that are near the mask.

•
If oxygen is used with this device, the oxygen flow must be turned off when the
device is not operating.
If oxygen has been left on, turn off the flow generator, then wait 30 minutes before
turning on the flow generatory again.
Explanation: When the CPAP device is not in operation and the oxygen flow is
left on, oxygen delivered into the air delivery tubing may accumulate within the
CPAP machine enclosure and create a risk of fire. This applies to most types of
CPAP machines.
•
•
•
Oxygen supports combustion. Oxygen should not be used while you are
smoking or in the presence of an open flame.
Always ensure airflow is being generated by the device before the oxygen
supply is turned on.
Always turn the oxygen supply off before stopping the airflow from the device.
Note: At a fixed rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled oxygen concentration will
vary, depending on where the oxygen is introduced, the pressure settings, patient breathing
pattern, mask selection, and leak rate.
•
Do not use the S8 ESCAPE if there are obvious external defects or unexplained
changes in performance.
•
Do not open the S8 ESCAPE case. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
Repairs and internal servicing should only be performed by an authorized service
agent.
•
Explosion hazard—do not use in the vicinity of flammable anesthetics.
CAUTIONS
•
At low pressures, the flow through the exhalation ports of your mask may not
clear all exhaled gas from the tubing. Some rebreathing may occur.
The airflow for breathing produced by this device can be as much as 11oF (6oC)
higher than the temperature of the room. Caution should be exercised if the room
temperature is warmer than 90oF (32oC).
•
•
When AC mains power (100–240V AC) is not available, always use a ResMed
DC-12 converter. (The DC-12 converter is available as an optional accessory. It is
not supplied with all models.)
•
•
If supplied, the Data Card module is designed for use with specific ResMed
devices.
Only use the Data Card module (if supplied) as specified in this manual.
Note: The above are general warnings and cautions. Specific warnings, cautions, and
notes appear with the relevant instructions in the manual.

HOW TO CHANGE THE ALTITUDE SETTING
If you move or travel with your S8 ESCAPE to areas of different altitude, you will need
to adjust the altitude compensation setting. Changes in altitude will affect the pressure
delivered by the S8 ESCAPE.
You can use the Altitude setting (ALT) to specify the altitude range at which you are

•
•
•
0–2000ft (0–609 m)
2001–4000ft (610–1219 m)
4001–6000ft (1220–1828 m)
6001–8500ft (1829–2591 m).
For example, if you are at an altitude of 3107’ (947 m), your altitude compensation
setting would be 2001–4000ft (610–1219 m), as 3107’ (947 m) falls within that range.
Press the Left key (Apply) to select the correct setting.
HOW TO CHANGE THE LANGUAGE SETTING
To display menus and messages in a different language, select the S8 ESCAPE menu by
pressing the Left key in the standby (Ramp) screen. Scroll to LANG and select Change
(Left key). Press the Up or Down keys until you see the language that you require.
OTHER VIEWABLE INFORMATION
You can also view the total number of hours of treatment (USED HRS); the number
of sessions that the S8 ESCAPE was used in a usage period (USAGE); and the current
software version installed on your unit (SW). Access to all of these screens is provided
via the menu. See “How to enter the menu screens” on page 16.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
HOW WILL IT FEEL WHEN I AM BREATHING WITH THE S8 ESCAPE?
When you first use your S8 ESCAPE, you may feel uncomfortable breathing against the
airflow. This is normal. You will continue to breathe normally while you sleep. Take
time to adjust to this new sensation.
WHAT DO I DO WHEN I WANT TO GET UP IN THE NIGHT?
If you need to get up during the night, remove your mask and stop therapy. Always
remember to restart therapy and put your mask on when you return to bed.
WHAT DO I DO IF I FEEL AIR LEAKING OUT OF THE MASK?
The flow generator delivers the most effective treatment when the mask is well fitted
and comfortable. Treatment can be affected by leaks, so it is important to eliminate
any leaks that may arise. For example, try repositioning the mask and adjusting the
straps.
If you are using a nasal mask, try to keep your mouth closed during treatment. Air leaks
from your mouth can decrease the effectiveness of your treatment. If mouth leaks are
a problem, a full face mask or chin strap may help. Contact your clinician or equipment
supplier for further details.
If you are using a full face mask and you have problems trying to get a comfortable
mask fit, contact your sleep clinic or equipment supplier. You may benefit from a
different size or style of mask.
ANYTHING SPECIAL I SHOULD DO BEFORE PUTTING THE MASK ON?
Before wearing your mask, wash your face to remove excess facial oils. This will allow
a better fit and prolong the life of the mask cushion.
Do not use moisturizer when wearing a mask.
MY MOUTH FEELS DRY DURING TREATMENT—WHAT CAN I DO?
You may experience dryness of the nose, mouth, and/or throat during the course of
treatment, especially during winter. In many cases, a humidifier may resolve this
discomfort. Contact your clinician for advice.
MY NOSE IS IRRITATED DURING TREATMENT—WHAT CAN I DO?
You may experience sneezing and/or a runny or blocked nose during the first few
weeks of treatment. In many cases, nasal irritation can be resolved with a humidifier.
Consult your clinician or equipment supplier for advice.
CAN I TRAVEL WITH THE S8 ESCAPE?
International use
Your S8 ESCAPE flow generator has an internal power supply that enables it to operate
in other countries. It will operate on power supplies of 100–240 V and 50/60 Hz. No
special adjustment is necessary, but you may need a plug adapter for the power outlet.
