Cleaning the Mask at Home
The mask and headgear should be cleaned by handwashing. •
The headgear may be washed without removing the headgear clips. •
WARNING
Do not use aromatic-based solutions or scented oils (eg, eucalyptus
or essential oils), bleach, alcohol or products that smell strongly (eg,
citrus) to clean any of the mask components. Residual vapors from these
solutions can be inhaled if not rinsed thoroughly. They may also damage
the mask, causing cracks.
CAUTION
If any visible deterioration of a mask component is apparent (cracking, •
crazing, tears etc.), the mask component should be discarded and
replaced.
Avoid connecting flexible PVC products (eg, PVC tubing) directly •
to any part of this mask. Flexible PVC contains elements that can
be detrimental to the materials of the mask, and may cause the
components to crack or break.
Daily/After Each Use
To optimize the mask seal, facial oils should be removed from the cushion
after use.
Handwash the mask by gently rubbing in warm (86°F/30°C) water using mild
soap.
If the vent requires cleaning use a soft bristle brush.
Rinse all components well with drinking quality water and allow them to air
dry out of direct sunlight. Do not soak the mask.
Weekly
Handwash the headgear in warm (86°F/30°C) water using mild soap.
