Preparing for use

Assembling the mask system

The mask frame has two access ports which should be plugged and are not used except for initial pressure setting by a technican. It has a swivelling mask elbow which allows the air tubing to be positioned without kinks. The air outlet vent allows exhaled air to escape quietly.

The Modular Mask Frame (shown

 

right) has a detachable forehead

 

arm and T-Bar.

1Before using the mask for the first time, wash the nasal cushion and air tubing in warm water using a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly. Hang the tubing to dry. Wipe all surfaces of the mask frame with a clean, damp cloth and allow to dry.

CAUTION:

Do not use bleach or chlorine-based solutions to

 

clean the cushion, mask or air tubing. These may

 

cause hardening and reduce the life of the

 

product.

 

Do not hang the air tubing in direct sunlight as

 

the tubing may crack.

2If you are using the Modular Mask Frame, you may need to fit the forehead arm and optional T-Bar. Refer to the User Instructions supplied with the Modular Mask Frame.

3Fit the nasal cushion to the mask frame as shown below.

Fit the cushion onto the ridge of the mask frame. The two pins on the cushion should align with the slots at the bottom of the mask frame.

Make sure the cushion is sealed all the way around.
