When it comes to sleep apnea, the fit of a mask can make or break a good night’s sleep. Now that you've been scanned with Philips Mask Selector 3D, you can rest easy knowing that your DreamWear mask with Precise-Fit Nasal Cushion has specifically been selected to fit your unique facial features.
Since your healthcare professional has already scanned you with Mask Selector 3D and determined your precise-fit cushion size, you can discard the sizing gauge that's attached to the mask.
We're here to help
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.
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.
For easy orientation note the L & R symbol on the arms. Loop the tab with the L symbol through the left side loop on the frame and R on the right side. Once correctly assembled the L&R symbols will face outwards, DreamWear logo on the fabric will be on the right & Philips Respironics logo will be on the back of the headgear.

DreamWear nasal comes in 3 frames & 4 cushion sizes. If you are experiencing leaks with the mask, contact your local homecare provider to try a smaller frame and/or cushion size. Additionally, we have also launched an updated slip resistant headgear with arms which may improve mask seal & overall stability.
All DreamWear masks are supported by the DreamMapper sleep apnea app.
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.
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.
