Explanation: the synthetic parts become saturated with water Their rigidity is thereby reduced
and this leads to an imprecise fit on the mask One or two days are necessary before the
synthetic material regains its previous rigidity
5 Only wash according to the washing instruction (40 °C or 104 °F, do not dry clean, do not bleach,
gentle drying cycle)
6 After 15 washes, the flame-retardant properties of the textile are significantly reduced These should
be refreshed using a spray or replaced (available at your weldcap
