Home cleaning: tubing
Hand wash the tubing, mask adapter (if included), and connectors (if included) before rst
use and weekly. Discard and replace the tubing every 6 months.
1. Disconnect the exible tubing from the device.
2. Gently wash the tubing, including any adapters or connectors, in a solution of warm
water and a mild liquid dish soap solution to adequately remove adhering substances
from the tube, adapters, and connectors. Be sure to clean the entire inner surface of the
tube by ensuring it is fully immersed in the detergent solution during gentle agitation by
hand.
3. Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue from the tube, adapters, and connectors
with water and allow to air dry. Make sure all parts are dry before next use.
4. Visually inspect the tubing for cleanliness. Repeat the cleaning if not visually clean.
5. Inspect the tubing for damage or wear (cracking, tears, punctures, etc.). Discard and
replace if necessary.
Caring for the lters
Notes
• Only Philips supplied lters should be used as replacement lters.
• Replace the blue disposable, ultra-ne lter if it is damaged or has accumulated debris.
Under normal usage, you should rinse the grey reusable lter at least once every two weeks
and replace it with a new one every six months.
The disposable, ultra-ne lter should be replaced after 30 nights of use, or sooner, if it
appears clogged. DO NOT rinse the ultra-ne lter.
1. If the device is operating, press the Therapy button to stop the airow. Unplug the power
cord from the wall outlet.
2. Remove the water tank to access the lter area, then remove the lter from the device.
Refer to the “Install/replace the air lters” section earlier in this manual.
3. Take the reusable lter to a sink and run warm tap water through the white middle
portion of the lter to rinse away any debris.
4. Shake the lter to remove as much water as possible.
5. Allow the lter to air dry completely before reinstalling it. If the lter is damaged, replace
it.
6. Reinstall the lter into the lter access area on the device.
