How do I Change the Air Pressure on an Aria LX CPAP?

The Aria LX CPAP is a medical device that provides continuous positive airway pressure to a patient's airway via a hose and mask. This pressure is intended to treat a condition known as obstructive sleep apnea, or OSA. For patients who suffer from OSA, this added pressure helps to hold open the airway, allowing the patient to breathe freely. The pressure is usually set by a home health provider or other medical professional. In the event that you need to set your own pressure on the Aria LX, there is a simple set of instructions to assist you.
