Congratulations on starting your journey to better sleep

Getting started

DreamWear mask fitting guide
Step 1
The cushion opening will be directly under the nostrils. Note: At no time should the nose be inside the cushion opening. If any part of the cushion overlaps the nose, the cushion is being worn incorrectly.
Step 2
With the mask assembled, place the cushion under the nose.The cushion will hug the nose and leak will be minimal.
Step 3
Position the frame on the top of your head. Pull the headgearover the back of your head.
Step 4
To adjust the mask, peel the headgear tabs away from the fabric. Adjust the straps length. Press the tabs back against the fabric to reattach. Note: Do not overtighten the headgear.
Step 5
Position the mask until it fits comfortably. When finished, the elbow should rest at the top of your head.

-
Is it on DreamMapper?
-
All DreamWear masks are supported by theDreamMapper sleep apnea app.
-
If a person lays on their side and closes off one side of the tubing, will the mask still provide therapy? Will it create a pressure spike?
-
The mask will continue to provide the prescribed therapy. Every other mask on the market operates with one tube running to the cushion and this mask operates in the same way. No increase of pressure or noise will occur.
-
How do I clean the mask?
-
If you remove the headgear, cushion and swivel, the frame is essentially one tube. This can be cleaned the same way the short tubing on other masks or the longer CPAP tubing is cleaned. Wash with warm soapy water, it can be rinsed through the swivel connection as well. Set to dry and if there happens to be any remaining moisture in the tube before therapy is started, connecting it to the CPAP with pressure can help to remove this.
The mask may also be cleaned in the dishwasher once a week. The non-fabric parts can be washed on the top shelf of the dishwasher and air dried. Please refer to the instructions manual that came with the mask.
