3.2 Using the oxygen self-rescuer
WARNING
!
Keep the oxygen self-rescuer away from combustible substances
(petrol, grease, solvents, etc.) before or during use to prevent a
potential risk of fire!
Destroying the oxygen self-rescuer can result in a potential risk of
ignition if the oxygen-abstracting chemical comes into contact with
combustible substances such as charcoal.
 Regularly practise using the oxygen self-rescuer with a training unit
 Only open the oxygen self-rescuer when using it!
Otherwise moisture from the ambient air will flow into the open oxygen self-
rescuer and impair its function.
Open devices cannot be closed again. They are considered used and must
not be stored but be disposed of see Section 7 on Page 10.
 Check the oxygen self-rescuer prior to carrying/daily see Section 3.3 on
Page 8.
 Use the oxygen self-rescuer only once.
3.3 Preparation for use
The following work steps must be performed every day. If one of the criteria listed
is not met, the oxygen self-rescuer must not be used.

If the oxygen self-rescuer suffered unusual strain (blows, pressure,
etc.), the checks mentioned should be carried out immediately.
In the following cases, the oxygen self-rescuer may be repaired by trained
personnel:
 If the oxygen self-rescuer is worn with a shoulder strap or hand strap, check
that they are locked onto the support ring. If the carrying strap is frayed or
damaged, it must be replaced.
 Make sure that the inspection window is not damaged. A damaged
inspection window must be replaced.
In the following cases, the oxygen self-rescuer must be taken out of service or
sent to Dräger for inspection.
 Check that the oxygen self-rescuer is complete.

than grains of sugar, can be shaken in the inspection window area, the
oxygen self-rescuer must be decommissioned.
An adhesive, thin yellow dust layer is normal after years of carrying and
does not affect the function.
