Troubleshooting
Mask does not seal properly
Ensure hair is not between the mask seal and the skin. Adjust the harness straps for a tighter, more secure fit. Perform a user seal check. If the issue persists, consider if the mask size is appropriate for your face.
Difficulty breathing through the mask
Check that the filters are correctly attached and not blocked. If the filters are old or saturated, replace them with new ones. Ensure the exhalation valve is functioning correctly.
Skin irritation from mask material
Clean the mask regularly. Ensure the mask is completely dry before wearing. If irritation continues, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
Fogging of eyewear while wearing the mask
Ensure the exhalation valve is not obstructed and is functioning properly. Ensure the mask is fitted correctly to prevent exhaled air from escaping upwards.
