Using the mask:
1. Connect the flexible tubing (included with your
CPAP or bi-level device) to the quick release tube.
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. If there are any excessive air
leaks around the nose, adjust the crown strap first. This
will move the mask closer or further away from the
bottom of your nose. Some air leaking is normal.
Comfort Tips

comfortable. If your skin bulges around the mask
or if you see red marks on your face, loosen the
headgear.
