FEATURES
The main features of a good mask are listed below in the right sequence:
a) Fitting: the mask on your face, without strap, must stay on snugly, just by inhaling through the nose,
unless you have a beard or moustache.
b) Visibility: maximum field of view.
c) Low volume: inner glasses, as close as possible to your eyes, without hurting your face.
d) Easy equalization: there must be space enough for the fingers, even with gloves, to squeeze the nose.
The ProEar 2000 is not just another mask but is indeed an entire new concept in diving safety
and comfort. As an entirely new product with 3 separate U.S. patents. The silicone ear cups,
equalization tubes and strap configuration take some time to get used to but after one or two
dives the ProEar 2000 becomes as natural and comfortable (even more so) then the standard
mask you have been diving with. The increased sound and hearing capabilities also takes
getting used to. Therefore, please try the ProEar 2000 in a pool for the first time if possible.
PRE-DIVE CHECK
All parts of the mask must be checked to be in perfect working condition. This includes amongst other
things the straps, buckles, skirt and glass lenses. If any of the following tests shows a negative result,
please take the mask to an authorized SCUBAPRO dealer.
- Skirt: before every dive perform a leak test for the mask by pressing the mask on your face with
one hand and generating an under pressure by inhaling through your nose. The mask should stay
on your face when you breathe-in and hold your breath, creating a vacuum and suction. Head and
facial hair can influence the result.
- Mask Strap: before every dive pull on the strap with approx. 3 kilo forces to check if the strap is okay.
- Buckles: before every dive check if the buckles work perfectly by adjusting them back and forth.
- Perform a visual inspection of the mask to ensure no damage to the frame, on the silicon tubes to
the ear cups, on the ear cups, the glass or any other part of the mask.
USE
 WARNING
Do not jump head or face first into the water. When entering the water, cover the mask glass with
your hand and hold the mask in place.
Do not drop the mask against sharp objects and avoid also an impact with sharp objects when wearing:
the strong impact can break the lenses and injure the user.
1) If the lens starts fogging, use the SCUBAPRO antifog solution on the inner surface, then rinse the
mask thoroughly in the water (repeat three times this operation, if the mask is new). Never use
solvents or cleaners such as alcohol, etc., but, in case, only liquid soap.
