How to t
your mask
ABegin by inserting the nasal pillows in
your nostrils (the nasal pillows are
designed to fit comfortably in the
edge of your nostrils and not designed
to go all the way inside your nose).
BSlip the self-adjusting headgear over
your head and split the two straps
apart slightly for stability. Make any
necessary adjustments to the two
top straps by bringing them closer
together or further apart to get
a snug fit that’s not too tight.
CThis is how the mask should look
when it’s properly fitted.

Getting used to your therapy
STEP 8
Breathe normally
When you use your machine
for the first time, remember
to breathe normally. Focus on
breathing in and out through
your nose only.
Pressure may feel
strange at first
It may feel easier than normal to
inhale, but harder than normal
to exhale. Take your time – even a
few minutes of breathing normally
with your machine will help you
relax and get used to therapy.
If you find yourself struggling and
thinking about breathing, consider
deep meditation breathing as
this helps to increase relaxation.
Remember, you can stop and start
therapy at any time by using the
START/STOP button on the top
of your machine.
Check for leaks
Check for leaks and make any
necessary mask adjustments
before falling asleep. Adapting
to therapy takes time, so be
patient with yourself. The best
way to adjust to therapy is
to use your machine nightly.

Caring for your equipment
Maintaining and caring for your CPAP equipment is an important step to help you
get the most out of therapy.
Mask care
Over time, your skin releases facial oil that can reduce the quality and performance of
your mask, so it’s important to clean it daily with mild soap. Avoid harsh cleaning products,
which may damage your mask or leave harmful residues. We also recommend cleaning
your mask shortly after use and allowing it to dry away from direct sunlight.
For more information on how to clean and care for your mask, please refer to your
AirFit P10 Nasal Pillows System user guide.

15ResMed.com/RemoteSetUp
Machine care
To deliver consistent, high-quality therapy, your CPAP machine needs to be well-maintained.
A blocked air filter may impact the pressure delivered to you. It’s important to regularly
examine the air filter for holes or dust build-up. Refer to your AirSense 10 series user guide
for specific recommendations on how to keep your machine performing at an optimal level.
Humidifier care (if applicable)
Maintaining your HumidAir humidifier tub can prevent the buildup of deposits and help
ensure comfortable therapy.
After each use, we recommend washing the water tub with a mild detergent and warm
water. Then thoroughly rinse and dry it away from direct sunlight. The tub should also
be checked once a month for wear and deterioration. If any component has cracked or
become cloudy or pitted, the tub should be replaced.
Please note that this cleaning information is only a summary. For more detailed information on cleaning
your ResMed CPAP equipment, refer to the product’s individual user guide.
