More information CPAP masks are wear parts. The service life of a CPAP mask is therefore 5 to 6 months. Usual wear and tear, particularly of mask cushions (e.g. a tear in the mask cushion after 3 months of use) or head straps (baggy strap after several months of use) does not constitute a material defect. Due to the production methods used, CPAP masks may smell of plastic or silicone. If this smell does not evaporate after initial use, it often helps to clean the CPAP mask under fresh water (with the addition of SomnoSept, if necessary) and to leave to dry. Warning The mask contains magnets with a magnetic field strength of up to 400 mT. Make sure that the magnets are kept at least 15 cm away from implants or medical devices that could be negatively affected by magnetic interferences. This warning applies to you and to all persons who come into close physical contact with your mask. The magnets are located inside the frame and inside the bottom head strap clips, and have a magnetic field strength of up to 400 mT. When you are wearing the mask, these magnets attach to one another to secure the mask, but may accidentally come loose as you sleep. Implants/medical devices, including those listed under contraindications, may be negatively affected if their functioning changes when exposed to extreme magnetic fields, or may contain ferromagnetic materials that are attracted or repelled by magnetic fields (some metallic implants, e.g. contact lenses that contain metal, dental implants, metallic cranium plates, screws, drilled hole covers and bone replacement fixtures). Contact your physician and the manufacture of your implant/other medical device for information about the possible harmful effects of magnetic fields. Contraindications Active medical implants that interact with magnets, e.g.: Pacemakers Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) Neurostimulators Shunts for the outflow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) Insulin infusion pumps Metallic implants/objects that contain ferromagnetic materials, e.g.: Clips for the treatment of aneurysms or to stop blood flow Spirals for the treatment of embolisms Stents Valves/flaps Electrodes Implants to restore hearing or balance that contain implanted magnets Metal splinters in the eye Eye implants Click here for additional information.
