Check the respirator is seated correctly when tight enough to prevent air leakage between the respirator and face.

PRESSURE FACE FIT CHECK

Positive pressure face fit check: Place the palm of your hand over the exhalation valve and exhale moderately. If the face piece bulges slightly and no air leaks between the face and the face piece are detected, a proper fit has been achieved. If air leakage is detected, reposition the respirator on the face and/or readjust the elastic strap to eliminate the leakage.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

• DO NOT WASH FILTERS.
• Clean face-piece assembly periodically with a soft cloth dampened with mild soapy water. This will form part of the face mask maintenance and should be logged. Deep cleaning will entail: Disassemble mask by removing the filters, head straps, and valves. Immerse in warm water and scrub with a soft brush. A neutral detergent can be used if necessary. The mask can also be soaked in a disinfectant for a short period of time. All parts should then be rinsed in clean, warm water and allowed to air dry.
