GENERAL GUIDELINES
ƽ WARNING
GENERAL GUIDELINES contains important information
for the safe operation and use of this product. DO NOT
use this product or any available optional equipment
without first completely reading and understanding these
instructions and any additional instructional material such
as Owner’s Manuals, Service Manuals or Instruction
Sheets supplied with this product or optional equipment.
If you are unable to understand the Warnings, Cautions
or Instructions, contact a health care professional, dealer
or technical personnel before attempting to use this
equipment - otherwise, injury or damage may occur.
This Twilight II Nasal Mask should be used only with CPAP
systems recommended by your physician or respiratory
therapist. A mask should not be used unless the CPAP system
is turned on and operating properly.
NEVER block the vent holes associated with the mask.
CPAP systems are intended to be used with special masks
which have vent holes to allow continuous flow of air out of the
mask. When the CPAP machine is turned on and functioning
properly, new air from the CPAP machine flushes the exhaled
air out through the mask exhalation vent holes. However, when
the CPAP machine is not operating, not enough fresh air is
provided through the mask, and exhaled air may be
rebreathed. Rebreathing of exhaled air for longer than several
minutes can in some circumstances lead to suffocation. This
warning applies to most models of CPAP systems.
CAUTION
Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order
of a physician.
