Tiki start – ENGLISH
Mark that if a gap occurs between the Tiki start and the face of the user, the energy
use of the Tiki start is higher and hence the battery time lower.
Therefore, obey to the instructions in relation to the use of the Tiki start at all
times.
Mark that incorrect use of the Tiki start voids warranty.
1.9 Risk situations
As the Tiki start does not supply oxygen (O2), do not use the Tiki start in atmospheres
with a reduced oxygen (O2) level of less than 19,5 %.
As the Tiki start is equipped with a battery, the functionality of the Tiki start depends
on the battery time.
It is under the responsibility of the user to monitor the energy level of the battery
before use and monitor that energy level at use, at all times.
If the energy level of the battery level is too low, a risk situation occurs.
The following situations mark that either the energy level of the battery is too low or
the Tiki start is not fully functional:
■
The alarm sounds for low battery warning
■
The airflow to the mask decreases or stops
■
Symptoms that indicate an exposure to the hazardous mixtures as indicated on
the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) of the hazardous mixture
■
Other
As a risk situation occurs, the user has to leave the environment with the hazardous
mixture and move either self or with aid to an environment that is considered as safe.
