• Use original packaging provided when storing/transpor�ng.
• Respirators shall be stored in a manner that will protect them against dust, ozone,
sunlight, heat, extreme cold, excessive moisture, vermin, damaging chemicals, oils,
greases, and/or any other poten�al hazard that can have a detrimental effect on
the respirator.
• Respirators shall be stored in a manner that will prevent deforma�on and/or
physical damage.
Cau�ons and Limita�ons
• Before using the respirator, the wearer shall read and understand all the
informa�on provided.
• Check that the respirator is clean and in good condi�on before each use.
• Always check the manufacturing date of the respirator to make sure that the
product is not exceeding 5-year shelf life.
• This respirator is not recommended to be used with beards or other facial hair
that may compromise contact/seal between the product and skin of the face.
• Temples of eyeglasses or any other materials such as hair, cloth, �ssue, straps, or
jewellery shall not come between the skin and the sealing surface of the
respirator or interfere with the opera�on of the respirator according to CAN/CSA
Z94.4 guidelines.
• Do not use in oxygen-deficient atmospheres. CAN/CSA Z94.4 defines
oxygen-deficient atmosphere as those where oxygen concentra�on is confirmed
to be below 19.5 % (at sea level).
• Replace the respirator with a new one if it becomes damaged or breathing
resistance becomes excessive and/or intolerable.
• If a person wearing this respirator develops any condi�on that leads to
compromising the respirator seal to the face, the person shall restore the required
fi�ng in a non-hazardous environment.
• This respirator shall not be used in condi�ons and/or with atmospheric
contamina�ons which are considered Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health
(IDLH). IDLH (determined by CAN/CSA Z94.4) is an atmosphere that poses an
immediate threat to life or that will cause irreversible adverse health effects or
impair an individual's ability to escape.
• This respirator shall not be altered, modified, repaired, or cleaned.
• Do NOT use this respirator for oil-based par�cles.
• Do NOT use this respirator in condi�ons where par�cle concentra�ons exceed the
maximum allowable limit as per the applicable regula�on and standard. The
maximum allowable concentra�on is obtained by mul�plying Assigned Protec�on
Factor (APF*) and the Permissible Occupa�onal Exposure Limit (OEL) of the
contaminant. This type of disposable respirator is assigned an APF of 10 (APF=10),
which means it helps protect against certain par�cles in concentra�on up to
10 × OEL.
* APF is the an�cipated level of respiratory protec�on that would be provided by a properly
func�oning respirator or class of respirators to properly fi�ed and trained users and is used
by regulators and standards development organiza�ons, such as the U.S. Na�onal Ins�tute
of Occupa�onal Safety and Health (NIOSH) and Canadian Standards Associa�on
(CAN/CSA Z94.4 Selec�on, use, and care of respirators).
Do NOT wear a respirator that cannot pass the seal checks successfully.
