8. With your thumbs, pull the bottom strap of the Headgear up over the Mask Tusks Figure 8. By moving your thumbs back toward your ears, make
sure that the bottom strap is flat against the mask body and your cheek. The Mask should now be snug but not tight. If adjustment to the bot-
tom strap is required, lower the strap from the Mask Tusks and adjust the bottom right and/or bottom left headgear tab(s) length.

Quick Connect to the mask. You may feel a few small leaks around the Mask.

mask using the Lower Mask Bridge Levers.
CAUTION– Do not overtighten your headgear! Excessive tension will cause discomfort during the night. Reposition the mask on your face and adjust your
