How does my SoClean 3 Work?
Learn About Ozone
SoClean 3 uses Activated Oxygen, also known as ozone. Ozone is contained within the system and is in contact with sleep equipment accessories during the Maintenance  Cycle.
SoClean 3 is designed to produce a sufficient level of ozone for maintenance of your sleep equipment accessories. The smell of ozone is detectable at low concentrations by  some people and you may smell ozone briefly during the Maintenance Cycle. The scent of ozone has the characteristic of a sweet chlorine-like smell.
Ozone will break down into oxygen in a short amount of time. The SoClean 3 device safely contains ozone within the system until it has converted back to oxygen. The Filter  converts ozone in your SoClean 3 and sleep equipment accessories into fresh air as it exhausts from the unit.
Should you detect an unusually strong scent of ozone or experience respiratory irritation during SoClean operation, unplug your SoClean unit, seek fresh air and contact SoClean for customer support before continued use.
WARNING: If the SoClean system is dropped, it may become damaged.
Regularly inspect the SoClean 3 for physical damage, such as cracks or broken structure, damaged gaskets, and cracks in the Ozone Tube or sleep equipment hose.  Discontinue use if damage is detected and contact SoClean for assistance.
NOTE: Any serious incident that has occurred in relation to the device should be reported to SoClean.
CAUTION: Discontinue use of your SoClean 3, consult your health care professional and contact SoClean Customer Care if acne or a rash develops along the mask contact line.
