2. Components
The Tiki Respirator is a powered air purifying respirator (PAPR) that uses filters to remove harmful airborne contaminants.
It is made up of several components. The basic components required for the unit to function are the mask, blower, filter and
harness. The external battery pack extends the battery life of the mask and the charger is required to charge both the blower
unit and the external battery.
3. Initial Use and Charging
Step 1.
Remove all of the parts from the packaging. Ensure that all parts are included and that they are not damaged.
Please refer to Chapter 2. “Components”.
Step 2.
Charge the blower unit with the included battery charger. Then charge the external battery pack (sold separately).
It is important that both are charged fully before the unit is used to prevent the batteries from running out prematurely.
Charge the blower and external battery separately.

WARNING

the internal charging circuit in the blower. If the battery and the blower are disconnected the unit will remain charged. Never
charge the unit in less than 0°C.

Remove the harness from it’s packaging and attach it to the mask. Please see Fig 1 on page 2 for illustration.
