Cleaning Your Mask At Home - ResMed AirFit P10 User Manual

Cleaning your mask at home

Your mask and headgear should only be gently handwashed. The mask
vent may discolour over time due to dust. Follow the cleaning instructions
in this guide to maintain performance and safety of the mask.
WARNING
Always follow cleaning instructions and use mild soap. Some
cleaning products may damage the mask, its parts and their function,
or leave harmful residual vapours that could be inhaled if not rinsed
thoroughly.
CAUTION
• If any visible deterioration of a system component is apparent
(cracking, crazing, tears etc), the component should be discarded
and replaced.
• Avoid connecting flexible PVC products (eg, PVC tubing) directly
to any part of the mask. Flexible PVC contains elements that can
be detrimental to the materials of the mask, and may cause the
components to crack or break.
• When fitting the mask, do not overtighten the headgear as this
may lead to skin redness or sores around the mask cushion.
• Do not iron the headgear as the material is heat sensitive and will
be damaged.
Daily/After each use:
• Disassemble the pillows from the frame according to the disassembly
instructions.
• Thoroughly clean the separated mask components (excluding
headgear), by gently rubbing in warm (approximately 30°C) water
using mild soap.
• To optimise the mask seal, facial oils should be removed from the
pillows after use.
• Use a soft bristle brush to clean the vent.
• Inspect each component and, if required, repeat washing until visually
clean.
• Rinse all components well with drinking quality water and allow to air
dry out of direct sunlight.
