During use

WARNING
Health hazard
► Leave the danger zone immediately in case of:
– Decreasing or interrupted air supply (e.g. after fan
failure). In the hood/helmet/protective visor facepiece
type, carbon dioxide can quickly build up or lack of
oxygen may occur. Noxious ambient air may also
penetrate the hood.
– Odour or taste developing in the facepiece (filter
break). The residual capacity of the gas filter or the gas
filter components of the combination filter are
exhausted.
– Drowsiness, dizziness, or other complaints
– Damage to the equipment
– Displayed alarms
Breathing hoses or other components involve the risk of
getting caught. This may damage the device and interrupt
the air supply!
Handle the device with care.
Breathing in during heavy work while wearing the
hood/helmet/protective visor facepiece type may result in
negative pressure and the penetration of unfiltered
ambient air!
Increase the flow rate to prevent this from happening.

3.3.1 Adjusting the flow rate

If necessary (e.g. during increased physical exertion), the flow
rate must be adjusted during operation using the
buttons.

3.3.2 Warnings and alarms

If a warning appears, leave the working area promptly in view
of the potentially hazardous situation.
Lower the flow rate to increase the period of service if a
warning appears. (Only possible if the lowest level has not
already been chosen.) By lowering the flow rate, you can, for
example, extend the battery runtime.
If an alarm is triggered, leave the working area immediately
without any delay.
Check the function of the device after a warning or alarm has
been triggered.
