Cleaning the Mask at Home
Notes:
• The mask and headgear should be cleaned by handwashing.
• The headgear may be washed without removing the headgear clips.
WARNING
Do not use aromatic-based solutions or scented oils (eg, eucalyptus or
essential oils), bleach, alcohol or products that smell strongly (eg, citrus)
to clean any of the mask components. Residual vapours from these
solutions can be inhaled if not rinsed thoroughly. They may also damage
the mask, causing cracks.
CAUTION
• If any visible deterioration of a mask component is apparent (cracking,
crazing, tears etc.), the mask component should be discarded and
replaced.
• 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.
Daily/After Each Use
To optimize the mask seal, facial oils should be removed from the cushion
before use.
Handwash the mask by gently rubbing in warm (86°F/30°C) water using mild
soap.
If the vent requires cleaning use a soft bristle brush.
Rinse all components well with drinking quality water and allow them to air
dry out of direct sunlight. Do not soak the mask.
Weekly
Handwash the headgear in warm (approx. 86°F/30°C) water using mild soap.
Reprocessing the Mask between Patients
Only Sleep Lab Mask (SLM) variants of the mask are intended for multi-
patient re-use. When using between patients, these masks must be
reprocessed according to cleaning and disinfection instructions available
on ResMed.com/downloads/masks.
