Fisher & Paykel Zest Q Nasal Mask Overview

When under-nose mask designs don’t work for you, the Fisher & Paykel Zest Q Nasal CPAP Mask with Headgear offers an ideal option. The over-the-nose cushioning provides comfort and performance with a minimal design that gives you a better alternative in nasal mask choices.

A quiet design in nasal masks

With advanced air diffusers, you can enjoy reduced noise during exhalation. The mask comes with five additional mask filters and a mask cover to ensure peaceful CPAP therapy for you and your bed partner.

Auto-contouring for a perfect fit

The Zest Q uses a two-part comfort design with foam cushioning to automatically adjust to your nose and facial shape while the glider strap frees you up for unhindered movement. If you have struggled with masks in the past that never seem to fit your facial contours, this mask adjusts quickly and easily for form-fitting comfort that doesn’t require a lot of adjustment.

Reduced contact for less redness and soreness

The minimal contact design of the Fisher & Paykel Zest Q Mask also ensures that you will not wake up with unsightly red marks or soreness from mask pressure on your face. A lighter, more flexible mask means CPAP therapy without side effects-even at high pressure settings!

Easy to remove headgear

The Zest Q headgear slips on and off with ease, so you never have to worry about readjustment during the middle of the night.

Freedom of movement glider strap

The glider strap ensures that you experience fewer leaks even when you change position at night. Perfect for active sleepers, this mask adapts to frequently changing sleeping positions while never losing its security seal.

Assembling the Fisher & Paykel Zest Q CPAP Mask

The F&P Zest Q Nasal Mask has been fully assembled and is ready to use. However, if you need to clean your mask, follow these reassembly instructions:

. Insert the Foam Cushion into the Silicone Seal in the diagram's orientation.

Assemble the Silicone Seal onto the Mask Frame, beginning with the slot at the top. Firmly press the two pieces together.

Lay the StretchgearTM Headgear open, sticker side down, on a flat surface. Connect the four straps to the respective slots in the Forehead Rest and the GliderTM Strap and place the completed mask over the Headgear. This can be done by slipping the Headgear into the slots without undoing the VELCRO® brand tabs.

To bring the Diffuser Device together, first put the Diffuser in the Cover, then attach it to the Elbow. Connect the Elbow to the Mask Base.

Fisher & Paykel Zest Nasal Mask Operating Instructions

The mask's working pressure level is 4-25 cmH2O.

The mask's working temperature range is 5-40°C (40-104°F).

Any time you use the mask, make sure to do the following:

Inspect it for any damage. If noticeable decay (cracking, tears, etc.) occurs, do not use it and seek replacement(s).

Search for vent holes in Elbow and do not use the mask if they are blocked.

Double-check that the airway to the mask is open.

Fitting the Fisher & Paykel Zest Q Nasal CPAP Mask

Remove the Silicone Seal's plastic from the mask.

With your free hand, spread the StretchgearTM Headgear just enough to fit securely over your head while holding your mask with one hand.

Put the mask over your forehead, covering your nose, and slowly draw the Headgear over your head.

Attach the GliderTM Strap to the Headgear.

Pull the lower straps as far down the back of the neck as possible. To remove slack, gently secure the straps. Connect to a CPAP/Bi-Level computer and set the pressure to the recommended level.

Tips for Fisher & Paykel Zest Q Nasal CPAP Mask Fitting

Tighten the lower straps if possible to prevent leaks (avoid over-tightening the straps).

Unhook the StretchgearTM Headgear from the GliderTM Strap when you need to remove your mask.

Take the mask partially away from the face when the straps are already attached. If any leaks arise, carefully secure the top and lower straps. The Silicone Seal would be able to inflate with air as a result of this. Reposition the mask on your forehead.

Cleaning Fisher & Paykel Zest Q Nasal CPAP Mask

To keep your F&P Zest Q Nasal Mask secure and comfortable, follow these steps:

Before first use:

Hand-wash the StretchgearTM Headgear in lukewarm water with a mild soap.

Soak for no more than 10 minutes, then clean with cold water and dry away from strong sunshine.

Before each use:

Examine the mask for signs of wear and tear. If it's broken, don't use it.

After each use:

Remove the Silicone Seal, Foam Cushion, Elbow, and Headgear from the Mask Base and disassemble them.

Wash the Silicone Seal and Mask Base with lukewarm water and soap. Soak for no more than ten minutes.

Rinse well with fresh water, making sure to get rid of any soap traces.

Using a wet towel, wipe the Foam Cushion. (The Foam Cushion should not be immersed in water.)

Allow all pieces to dry away from direct sunlight before reassembling.

Avoid washing or rinsing the Diffuser. If it gets loud or deteriorates, just substitute it with a new Diffuser. It is expected to last for two to three months. The appearance of small dots on the Diffuser has no bearing on its results. You may use the F&P Zest Q Nasal Mask with or without the Diffuser System.

Every 7 days:

Hand-wash the StretchgearTM Headgear in lukewarm water with soap. Soak for no more than 10 minutes, then clean with cold water and dry away from strong sunshine.
