vented variants

Always check that the anti-asphyxia valve is
working before each use as described below:
1. Ensure that the valve and membrane are
dry, undamaged and free of secretions.
Do not use the mask if the valve or
membrane is damaged (e.g. through
tears and deformation). In this case
replace the anti-asphyxia valve. (see
"7. Scope of supply" on page 22)
2. Ensure that the valve membrane is not
closing the valve aperture. Only then can
ambient air flow into the mask.
3. Attach the breathing hose (delivered with
the therapy unit) to the elbow of the
mask and to the therapy unit.
4. Switch on the therapy unit. The
membrane should now close the
aperture of the anti-asphyxia valve. Only
then can ambient air flow from the
therapy unit into the mask.
5. Do not use the mask if the valve or the
membrane is not working. Replace the
anti-asphyxia valve. (see "7. Scope of
supply" on page 22)
