4.3 Exhalation system
vented variants
Vented variants (transparent elbow and rotating
sleeve) have an integrated exhalation system. The re-
taining ring and mask body are shaped so that there
is a gap between these parts. The exhaled air can es-
cape through this gap.
Non-vented variants
Non-vented variants (blue retaining ring and elbow)
do not have an exhalation system. If you are using the
non-vented variant with an external exhalation valve,
please see the associated instructions for use.
4.4 Pressure measurement port
The mask has a pressure measurement port, which
can be used for measuring pressure or supplying oxy-
gen. If you are not using the connection, close it with
the seal for pressure measurement to reach therapy
pressure.
5 Hygiene treatment
Risk of injury from inadequate cleaning!
Residues may congest the mask, impair the
integrated exhalation system and jeopardize therapy
success.
 For patients with a compromised immune system
or particular background of illness, disinfect
mask components daily following consultation
with the physician.
