Resmed Air 11 question on cleaning

Post by bobsk8 » Sat Nov 26, 2022 11:01 am

I cleaned my 1 week old Airsense 11 this morning, and I had seen videos on the 10 that showed the gasket inside the water tank being removed when washing it. I looked at the gasket inside the 11, and it looks like it is glued in place, so I didn't want to try and pry it out for fear of damaging it. Is it supposed to be removed for cleaning in this unit or not?

That gasket on the As11 is not removable. If you look at your owners manual, it does not mention the gasket in their cleaning instructions.
The gasket on the AS10 was larger and was removable for cleaning.
