Do not use solutions containing bleach, chlorine, aromatics, moisturizers,
antibacterial agents, or scented oils to clean any part of the system or air tubing.
These solutions may cause damage and reduce the life of the product.

deteriorate.
•
If any visible deterioration of a component is apparent (cracking, crazing, tears, etc),
replace the mask.
