INTENDED USE

The escape hood is ready for immediate use if the sealing of the box
or bag and the sealed package are intact.
In the event of a fire or other emergency, don the escape hood in the
following order:
•
open the box or bag, remove package with the
working part, open the sealed package at the
incision and take out the working part;
•
remove plug from half-mask, spread the hood,
stretch out the hood obturator with both hands,
take a deep breath, hold your breath and quickly
put the hood on your head, so that the half-mask
closes your nose and mouth. Then pull the hood
on the back of your head;
•
hold the tube, pull the half-mask and adjust it, so
that it fits your face tightly. Exhale and continue
breathing;
•
to activate the starter, pull the starter cord up,
exhale and continue breathing;
•
leave the emergency area.
CAUTION!
USERS WITH LONG HAIR AND VOLUMINOUS HAIRSTYLES NEED TO HIDE THEIR HAIR COMPLETELY
UNDER THE HOOD.
If there is difficulty in breathing while moving, stop without doffing
the escape hood, take a few deep breaths, catch your breath and
continue moving.
Leave the emergency area in a rapid controlled step. Running is not
recommended, as when running and fast walking, it is easy to «disrupt»
the breath.
Filling of the breathing bag and the inflow of warm breathing mixture
into the breathing system is the indicator that the escape hood is
working condition and starting off as it should.
