Cleaning

I am new to the CPAP machine  (about 3 weeks). What are some good tips for 

cleaning the CPAP small water tank, hose, and mask (pillows type)?

 

I have the Resmed S9.  The manual says to use vinegar to clean the small

water tank (distilled water only).  There are different types of vinegar.  I guess

the white distilled vinegar is the type to be used.

What about the hose and mask?  Just rinse with warm water?

 

Thanks in advance.  H. Hampton

I wipe my mask off with a mask wipe every morning.  I wash my hose every week or two in warm soapy water, dry by hanging up, if it's not quite dry that's not a problem.  The water chamber once a week with white vinegar.   Good luck.
