Comfort Tips

comfortable. If your skin bulges around the mask or if you see red marks on your face, loosen the
headgear.
‡ Re-seat the mask by pulling it directly away from your face and gently setting it back into place.
‡ Adjust the side headgear straps to reduce leaks around your eyes.
Removing the Mask
Disconnect a bottom headgear clip. Slide the headgear forward over your head.
