Changing Aura/Headrest pillow??

Post by betty303 » Sat Mar 28, 2009 11:11 pm

I need to change out the pillow part for my decapitated Aura from large to medium. Is there a trick? It seems like a permanent connection to the plastic tubing. Advice?
Thanks - Betty

If looking at the front of the mask, hold the pillows and turn gently to the left till it stops then pull down. Reverse to put in another set.

gadzooks - that was easy! I guess I didn't stumble on turning the right directions, with the right pressure, and letting it drop.

THANKS
