the device is turned on and functioning properly, new air
from the device flushes the exhaled air out through the mask
vent holes. However, when the device is not operating,
insufficient fresh air will be provided through the mask, and
the exhaled air may be rebreathed. Rebreathing of exhaled
air for longer than several minutes can, in some
circumstances, lead to suffocation. This applies to most
models of CPAP or bilevel devices.

Follow all precautions when using supplemental oxygen.

Oxygen flow must be turned off when the CPAP or bilevel
device is not operating, so that unused oxygen does not
accumulate within the device enclosure and create a risk of
fire.

Oxygen supports combustion. Oxygen must not be used
while smoking or in the presence of an open flame. Only use
oxygen in well ventilated rooms.

At a fixed rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled
oxygen concentration varies, depending on the pressure
settings, patient breathing pattern, mask, point of application
and leak rate. This warning applies to most types of CPAP or
bilevel devices.

The technical specifications of the mask are provided for
your clinician to check that they are compatible with the
CPAP or bilevel device. If used outside specification or if
used with incompatible devices, the seal and comfort of the
mask may not be effective, optimum therapy may not be
achieved, and leak, or variation in the rate of leak, may affect
the CPAP or bilevel device function.

Discontinue using this mask if you have ANY adverse
reaction to the use of the mask, and consult your physician
or sleep therapist.

Using a mask may cause tooth, gum or jaw soreness or
aggravate an existing dental condition. If symptoms occur,
consult your physician or dentist.

As with all masks, some rebreathing may occur at low CPAP
pressures.
