dangerous ambient atmosphere for approx. 1 hour. During the escape, the
following rules must always be observed:
1. Stay calm!
2. Choose the shortest route to safe ambient air!
3. Breathe calmly! Extra air will be consumed if breathing is fast and
irregular.
4. Do not damage or compress the breathing bag, otherwise lifesaving
oxygen may be lost!
