Do I unplug my machine after?

I do much the same as above.. but will usually let the machine turn itself off at times as well ( I use the auto-on/ auto-off setting on my Dreamstation.)

When I get up in the middle of the night I manually turn it off for the couple of minutes I'm up, and then let auto-on start it up again when I get back in to bed.

In the morning when I get up I let auto-off shut it down because I feel the air dries any residual moisture in the hose and mask after I remove my mask ( I don't use the humidifier, so there is now water in the tank creating moisture in the hose.)
