Reforming the Mask:
OPTIONAL - If you are not able to minimize the leaks, you may want to reform the mask to fit your face more closely.
Remove the headstrap and spacer from the mask.
Fill a container with enough water to cover the entire
mask.
(DO NOT put the mask in the water at this
time.)
Place the container over heat and bring the
water to a boil.
Remove the container from the heat.
Using tongs or a similar utensil, slowly place the mask into the water being
careful to keep the water from spilling over. Soak the mask for four minutes.
Using the tongs again, grab the mask at the extension and remove it from the
water. Place the mask in cold water for ten seconds.
Reconnect the spacer and headstrap.
Warning:
Before placing the mask on your face, be sure the mask has cooled
enough to prevent irritation or burning.
Place the mask on your face in the position you will be wearing it, pressing
comfortably against your face. Slide the headgear over your head.
NOTE: Be sure to tighten the headgear to the tension you would normally
use.
Wear the mask and headgear for five minutes to allow the mask to form to
your face.
Remove the mask and headstrap. The mask will maintain its shape.
NOTE: The mask can be reformed, if necessary, by repeating steps 1
through 3.
Helpful Tips for Mask Comfort:
• Clean your face and mask thoroughly before each use.
• Make sure the mask is the correct size for your face.
• Do not overtighten the headstrap. Overtightening can irritate your
face, increase leaks, or cause damage to the mask.
• Replace the mask if the cushion becomes hardened or deformed.
