Achieving the Right Fit
Before putting on the mask:
1. Headgear clips - Grip and twist away from the frame
to disconnect.
2. Headgear - Loosen to a large setting.
Adjusting the mask:
1. Pull the mask over your head. Hold the mask against your
face.
2. Headgear clips - Press into place to connect (Figure 2).
3. Headgear - Pull back the tabs to evenly adjust the top
and bottom straps (Figure 3).
4. Forehead adjuster button - Press and hold to slide the
frame toward or away from your face to adjust pressure
(Figure 4). This will decrease or increase the pressure on
the bridge of your nose and chin.
The mask should rest comfortably against your face. The
forehead pad will touch your forehead lightly. The bottom
of the mask cushion should rest just above your chin with
your mouth slightly open.
Using the mask:
1. Connect the flexible tubing (included with your CPAP or bi-level
device) to the elbow on the mask.
2. Lie down. Turn the therapy device on. Breathe normally. Keep your
mouth slightly open.
3. Assume different sleeping positions. Move around until
comfortable. If there are any excessive air leaks, make final
adjustments. Some air leaking is normal.
Comfort Tips
• The most common mistake is overtightening
the headgear. The headgear should fit loose and
comfortable. If your skin bulges around the mask or if
you see red marks on your face, loosen the headgear.
• Adjust the bottom headgear straps to reduce leaks at
the sides of your mouth.
Removing the Mask
Disconnect the headgear clips and pull over the top of your
head (Figure 5).
