PRECAUTIONS
Always use the mask with the snorkel.(4) This mask, designed for seabed
observation, should be used under conditions at light to moderate intensity.
This mask is not suitable for swimming. (5) This piece of equipment should
only be used in water on the surface. Do not go underwater, do not free
dive.(6) Not following these security rules can lead to severe injuries,
drowning or death (for example as a result of an intoxication to carbon
dioxide, Immersion Pulmonary Oedema, etc).
This mask complies with the health and safety requirements of European
regulation 2016/425 relating to personal protective equipment. It protects the
diver’s eyes from any direct contact with water. The lens of the mask is
resistant to impacts under normal conditions of use. Do not dive or jump into
the water while wearing the mask.(7) Do not carry the mask by the snorkel.

INSTRUCTIONS
To ensure a perfect seal, choose a mask that fits your face. A particular size
will not fit everyone.(10) Make sure the mask is applied correctly and that
there are no gaps between the skirt and the face. When using it for the first
time, check the sealing of your mask against your face in shallow water where
you can touch the bottom. Before putting the mask on your head, clip the
snorkel to the stop and check that the seal is present.(11) Put the mask on
and position it correctly on the face. Make sure there is no hair in the mask.
Then, adjust the strap using the 2 tightening buckles to ensure that the mask
is secure and there are no gaps in the seal around the face. The strap must be
centred at the top of the head.
Do practice removing the mask while standing in shallow water. While using,
remember to take the mask off regularly. You must be able to easily remove
your mask if water infiltrates in the mask to prevent serious injury,
suffocation, drowning or death. Water
could enter your mask from time to time, this is normal. If there is any water
present, lift your head out of the water and the water will drain out
gradually through the valve at the bottom of the mask.
Check that your equipment is functioning properly before each use and in
particular that nothing is preventing the circulation of air and the
evacuation of water through the valve located at the bottom of the mask. Check
the overall assembly of the mask and that there are no defects in the assembly
of the skirt on the frame and the lens. (12)Check the presence and the correct
positioning of the two valves around the nose and the water evacuation valve
at the bottom of the mask.(13) Refer to the video available via the QR code at
the beggining of this usage manual.
If it fogs up over your eyes, make sure the mask is the right size, check that
it is in good working order, then reposition your Easybreath mask correctly on
your face. If the issue continues, do not use the mask and contact your
closest Decathlon store.
The mask has a «Dry top» system. This system was developed to avoid water from
entering the snorkel when the sea is choppy or has ripples on the surface,
during immersion or when the user leans the head too far forward to see the
seabed. The snorkel has a float inside which goes up to close the opening when
it goes below the surface of the water. When it happens, remember to blow when
returning the snorkel above water to ensure that the float goes back down.
Ensure good mobility of the float in the snorkel.(14) Keep your Easybreath
mask away from sand to avoid scratching the lens. In the presence of sand, do
not force the snorkel into place. Rinse the snorkel and mask first. Sand can
also clog the float valve inside the snorkel. Use a key that you can fit
through the snorkel’s rear vents to unblock the float valve, then rinse the
snorkel thoroughly.
Avoid contacts between the mask and solvents or detergents. To obtain maximum
life from your product, avoid unnecessary exposure to sunlight. Do not leave
the mask a long time under direct sunshine or high temperatures (60°C /
140°F). Caution, if you leave your equipment in the sun, the dark parts can
become very hot, beware before using it. This product can eventually cause
reactions on sensitive skins. Stop using immediately should you experience
irritation. If you have any doubts or questions, check with your medical
practitioner.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Thoroughly rinse the mask with fresh water after use.(15) Make sure that all impurities (salt, sand, seaweed, etc.) have been removed. To ensure the proper functioning of the anti-fog system, wash the inside of the mask glass by hand with dishwasher soap regularly, being careful not to touch the valves located on each side of the nose and chin. Store in a dry, ventilated place away from sunlight.
