Once your circuit is connected to the device, you can connect the mask to the other end of the tube.

Option 2 – Single circuit with expiratory valve and pressure line

1.Connect the air outlet firmly to one branch of the corrugated tube .

2.Connect the expiratory valve tube (the only one fitted with a

white connector) to the valve control , then turn the connector slightly to the right to make the connection secure.

3.Finally, connect the other tube (with no connector fitted) to the

pressure line .

Note: If your circuit configuration does not include a pressure line, this third step will not apply.
