safety function. The valve should be replaced if it is damaged,
distorted or torn.
•
The vent holes must be kept clear.
•
Follow all precautions when using supplemental oxygen.
•
Any oxygen flow must be turned off when the flow generator is not
operating, so that unused oxygen does not accumulate within the flow
generator enclosure and create a risk of fire.
•
At a fixed flow rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled oxygen
concentration will vary, depending on the pressure settings, patient
breathing pattern, mask, point of application and leak rate.
•
The technical specifications of the mask and flow generator are
provided for your clinician to check that they are compatible. If used
outside specification or if used with incompatible devices, the seal and
comfort of the mask may not be effective, optimum therapy may not
be achieved, and leak, or variation in the rate of leak, may affect the
flow generator function.
•
Discontinue using the Mirage Quattro if you have ANY adverse
reaction to any part of the mask system, and consult your physician or
sleep therapist.
•
Refer to your flow generator manual for details on settings and
operational information.
•
Using a mask may cause tooth, gum or jaw soreness or aggravate an
existing dental condition. If symptoms occur, consult your physician or
dentist.
CAUTION
Avoid connecting flexible PVC products (eg, PVC tubing) directly to any
part of this mask. Flexible PVC contains elements that can be detrimental
to the materials of the mask, and may cause the components to crack or
break.
Using the Mask
Select 'Mir Full' or 'Full Face' as the mask option when using the Mirage
Quattro with ResMed flow generators that have mask setting options.
