• The mask is not intended to be used simultaneously with nebulizer medications that
are in the air path of the mask/tube.
• Follow all precautions when using supplemental oxygen.
• Oxygen flow must be turned off when the CPAP or bilevel device is not operating, so
that unused oxygen does not accumulate within the device enclosure and create a risk
of fire.
• Oxygen supports combustion. Oxygen must not be used while smoking or in the
presence of an open flame. Only use oxygen in well ventilated rooms.
• At a fixed rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled oxygen concentration varies,
depending on the pressure settings, patient breathing pattern, mask, point of
application and leak rate. This warning applies to most types of CPAP or bilevel
devices.
CAUTION
• Remove all packaging before using the mask.
• Using a mask may cause tooth, gum or jaw soreness or aggravate an existing dental
condition. If symptoms occur, consult your physician or dentist.
• When fitting the mask, do not overtighten the headgear as this may lead to skin
redness or sores around the mask cushion.
• The mask should not be used unless the device is turned on. Once the mask is fitted,
ensure the device is blowing air to reduce risk of rebreathing exhaled air.
• As with all masks, some rebreathing may occur at low pressures.
• Always follow cleaning instructions and only use a mild liquid detergent. Some
cleaning products may damage the mask, its parts and their function, or leave harmful
residual vapours. Do not use a dish washer or washing machine to clean the mask.
• Do not iron the headgear as the material is heat sensitive and will be damaged.
Note: For any serious incidents that occur in relation to this product, these should be
reported to ResMed and the competent authority in your country.
