Attach the sterile water bag to the hanging bracket 50 cm
above the Airvo 3. Remove the spike from the chamber bracket and push the
bag spike into the fi tting at the bottom of the bag.
Open the vent cap on the side of the bag spike.
Caution
Only use USP sterile/distilled water, suitable for inhalation, to fi ll the water
chamber. Adding other substances can adversely aff ect the humidifi er and

6. Check the water level
Check that water fl ows into the chamber and remains below the maximum
water-level line.
The chamber will automatically maintain the correct water level until the
water bag is empty.

Do not use the MR290 auto-fi ll chamber if the water level rises above the
