Exhale Pressure?
#1
Exhale Pressure?
When I first put my Dreamwear on, the exhale pressure seems kind of high, meaning that for the first minute or two, it is a little difficult to exhale.  After a while, either I'm getting used to it or the machine is making changes to make it easier to breathe.  What is this setting called and is there a way to adjust this pressure?

RE: Exhale Pressure?
You are probably acclimating to the pressure. Pressure changes depend on your Dreamstation model. What is your model number, "DSX???" It is usually on the bottom of the machine. Just remember to drain the humidifier, if used, before turning it upside down.
