The AirFit F20 is a non-invasive accessory used for channeling airflow

pressure (PAP) device such as a continuous positive airway pressure
(CPAP) or bilevel system.
The AirFit F20 is:

positive airway pressure therapy has been prescribed
• intended for single-patient reuse in the home environment and multi-
patient reuse in the hospital/institutional environment.
WARNING
Magnets are used in the lower headgear straps and the frame of the
AirFit F20. Ensure the headgear and frame is kept at least 2" (50 mm)
away from any active medical implant (eg, pacemaker or
defibrillator) to avoid possible effects from localized magnetic fields.
The magnetic field strength is less than 400 mT.
