Place nasal pillows into nostrils. An
appropriate size pillow should seal
against the rim of the nostril.
STEP 2 - Sizing the Pillow

of cushion.

Insert pillows as shown into the
corresponding grooves on the
cushion to achieve the desired
pillow height position.

Conrm the pillows are seated inside the
nose and on the rim of nostril. Use ngers
to guide pillows into the correct position.

Conrm that the upper seal of cushion lies
completely above the mouth on the upper

2. Gently tighten the overhead strap on the
headgear.
STEP 6 - Adjusting for Leakage after Applying Air
Pressure
Nasal pillows are not maintaining adequate
contact with your nose:
1. Place pillows in tall position as shown
in step 3(B).
2. Repeat steps 4 and 5.
B
Small leak at oral cushion:
1. Lift the interface slightly off the face
and reposition.
2. Repeat steps 4(B) and 5(B). Do not
over-tighten headgear straps as this
may create discomfort.
C
Gently press interface towards face and
push one of the lower quick release
buckles forward until it unsnaps. Pull
interface and headgear away from head.
STEP 7 - Removing the Interface
NOTE: If you are unable to resolve leaks, you may need to try one
of the alternative nasal pillow or oral cushion sizes included in your
Hybrid interface package.
TIP:
Although the swiveling elbow on the Hybrid
allows you to route the CPAP hose in all direc-
tions, the quietest experience will occur when the
CPAP hose is routed in the downward direction.
Remember, the Keys to a Good Fit with the Hybrid are:
Proper oral cushion size
Proper nasal pillow size
Appropriate pillow height position
Upper seal of cushion completely above mouth on the upper lip
Headgear worn correctly
