tube (i.e. end with the blue pinch clip) onto the air inlet of the headgear (Fig. 1a). The breathing tube
should make an audible click when attached. Verify breathing tube is secured to the headgear by
pulling on the connection. If it is not securely connected, detach and reconnect.
- To disconnect the breathing tube, compress the tabs on the end of the QRS to release and pull back
to remove (Fig. 1b).
