I've been meaning to ask, but kept forgetting, what is the little plug on my Comfort Full II mask for? The little plug is located right next to the hose tube.

The one on my mask is for supplemental oxygen.
Eric is right. Most masks are fitted with a little opening with a plug so that supplemental oxygen can be fed into the mask if needed. Majority of patients probably will not need this "extra" feature, but is there if needed.
The little plug is for adding supplemental oxygen. Some CPAP/BiPAP users still need O2.
Oh, ok. So I should leave it plugged, not remove the cap. When I watch the instruction CD it mentions the little plug, but I think it says it's to allow CO2 to be expelled when you breathe.

Thanks for the replies.
