4.2
Cleaning and disinfecting
The facepiece must be cleaned after every use so that it is clean
before it is used by a different individual or, if individually assigned, as
often as necessary to keep in a sanitary condition. Facepieces that are
issued to more than one user must be cleaned before being worn by
different individuals.
The facepiece must be disinfected and decontaminated after every
use to keep it in a sanitary condition. It is fully in the user's
responsibility to make sure that the facepiece is totally free of
contaminants after this treatment. Never use a facepiece again, that
has not been properly disinfected and decontaminated. In case of
doubts dispose of the facepiece in accordance with the local
regulations and use a new one.
WARNING
!
The facepiece body must be cleaned thoroughly so that no
residues from skin care products remain on it.
Otherwise the elasticity in the sealing area can be lost and the
facepiece will no longer sit correctly.
Failure to take note of this warning can result in poisoning or
death.
