The PowerShell is an integrated battery carrier that unifies everything you need for a great
night’s sleep without cords. Please read the entire Z1®User Guide.
IMPORTANT: The “REMINDER” indicator will display on the Z1 if an air leak is detected between the Z1 outlet and the mask. This may also display at times when the mask is not being worn properly. This common
condition should clear once all connections are secure, the mask is properly worn, and therapy has begun.
