the tightness of the non-return valve must be checked during monthly cleaning.
1. connect the breathing valve to the medium pressure supply hose of the regulator.
2. remove the breathing valve from the full face mask, or alternatively take
the mouthpiece of the breathing valve (see the "replacing the mouthpiece"
instructions in the "repair" section).
3. open the cylinder valve.
4. fill the free space of the non-return valve disc with water. (figure 15)
5. check that no water leaks into the breathing valve. the water level over the non-
return valve must not drop. If there is any leakage, clean or replace the non-return
valve and redo the check.

disc lies flat after the valve has been blown dry.
