Air blows out all night with Resmed s9 keeping me awake.

After not using the CPAP for a couple years my apnea has became worse. So I ordered a new mask and started using it last night it worked fine until it started blowing out the sides which kept me awake all night. I need to know what settings to change to keep from doing this.

Based on the info you gave us on your mask, the only suggestion can only be the off button, you have to adjust the mask so it doesn't leak at your treatment pressure.

A mask leaking problem has nothing to do with the machine or pressure. Go to You Tube and watch a mask fitting video for your mask.
