Using Your Mask; Cleaning Your Mask At Home; Daily/After Each Use - ResMed AirFit F20 Manual Del Usuario

Using your mask

•
When using your mask with ResMed CPAP or bilevel
devices that have mask setting options, refer to the
Technical specifications section in this user guide for the
correct setting.
•
Follow the instructions provided by your physician or sleep
therapist.
•
Adjustment tips:
− With air pressure applied, pull the mask away from
your face to allow the cushion to inflate and reposition
onto your face.
− To resolve any leaks at the upper part of the mask,
adjust the upper headgear straps. For the lower part,
adjust the lower headgear straps.
− Adjust only enough for a comfortable seal. Do not
overtighten as this may cause discomfort.
•

and/or supplemental oxygen are required.

Cleaning your mask at home

Handwash your mask and headgear by gently rubbing in warm
(approximately 30°C) water using mild liquid detergent. Rinse
all components well under running water and allow to air dry
out of direct sunlight.
WARNING
•
As part of good hygiene, always follow cleaning
instructions and use a mild liquid detergent. Some
cleaning products may damage the mask, its parts and
their function, or leave harmful residual vapours that
could be inhaled if not rinsed thoroughly.
•
Regularly clean your mask and its components to
maintain the quality of your mask and to prevent the
growth of germs that can adversely affect your health.

deterioration of a system component is apparent (cracking,
