Troubleshooting
If you experience issues with your AirTouch F20 cushion, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:
- Air Leaks: Ensure the cushion is correctly seated on the mask frame and that the headgear is adjusted for a snug, but not overly tight, fit. The memory foam should conform to your face without gaps. Check for any signs of wear or tears on the cushion that might compromise the seal.
- Discomfort or Red Marks: Re-adjust the headgear to relieve pressure. The memory foam is designed to be gentle; excessive tightness can still cause discomfort. Ensure the cushion is clean and free from debris.
- Reduced Therapy Effectiveness: This could indicate a compromised seal or a cushion that needs replacement. Check for wear and consider replacing the cushion if it's nearing its recommended lifespan.
