Part No 1130237 9 Invacare®Twilight™Full Face Mask
Cleaning the Mask and Headgear
CAUTION
ALWAYS be sure to remove any foreign material (dirt, lint, etc.)
from the exhalation vents.
DO NOT use bleach, chlorine, aromatic-based cleaning solutions,
scented oils, or moisturizing or antibacterial soaps to clean the mask
components. These solutions may cause hardening and reduce the life
of the product.
Alcohol may be used to clean the silicone cushion ONLY. DO NOT
use alcohol to clean the mask frame, headgear or air tubing.
ƽ WARNING
DO NOT expose any part of the mask system or tubing to direct
sunlight as it may cause mask deterioration.
ALWAYS rinse mask thoroughly after cleaning. Insufficient rinsing of
cleaning agents can result in severe skin rash, irritation and skin
breakdown. Discontinue using the mask if there is an allergic reaction
to any part of the mask, and contact your healthcare professional.
Washing the mask in an automatic dishwasher is not recommended.
Doing so may damage or affect the life of the valve flap or the
product. Also, the automatic dishwasher cleaning and rinsing agents
may leave a residue on the mask, which may cause skin irritation.
For multi-patient use/reuse, clinicians should refer to the Mask
Disinfection and Sterilization Guide (p/n 1130216).
The headgear cannot be disinfected or sterilized. Refer to instruc-
tions below for washing the headgear.
NOTE: Wash the entire mask system (except the headgear) after each use.
