4. Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning
Remove the filter, the covers for the exhala-
42
tion valves, the membranes, the inhalation
membrane and the head harness. The har-
ness can be washed, but takes extra time
to dry.
43
Clean the mask and all parts with Sundström
cleaning tissues SR 5226.
If the mask is heavily soiled, use a warm (up
to +40 °C), mild soap solution and a soft
brush, followed by rinsing with clean water
and drying in air at room temperature.
• Inspect all parts and replace with new parts
as necessary. Critical areas are the exhala-
tion membranes and the membrane seats
which must have clean and undamaged
contact surfaces.
• Leave the mask to dry, and then assemble
it.
NOTE! Never use solvents for cleaning.
4.2 Storage
The best way to store the mask is in the provided
storage bag
