STORAGE AND TRANSPORT
The devices should be stored in cool and ventilated areas, away from gases, corrosive agents, direct sunlight and heat
sources. When clean and dry, the self-contained breathing apparatuses can be stored in closets or dust-proof cases.
For this, make sure the devices are leaned on their backrest and that the straps are not bent.
If stored in their original packaging or special case, the devices do not require special care as far as the transport is
concerned. We nonetheless recommend following the general storage indications already highlighted.
