The flow generator delivers the most effective treatment when the mask is well fitted
and comfortable. Treatment can be affected by leaks, so it is important to eliminate
any leaks that may arise.
If you have problems trying to get a comfortable mask fit, contact your sleep clinic or
equipment supplier. You may benefit from a different size or style of mask.
You can also use the mask-fitting feature to help you fit your mask properly. See "Using
the Mask-Fitting Feature" on page 24.
Before wearing your mask, wash your face to remove excess facial oils. This will allow
a better fit and prolong the life of the mask cushion.
