4. Opstelling en Aanpassing

4.1 Aanvanklike voorbereiding

Before first use, new masks often have a thin silicone film on the lenses from the manufacturing process, which can cause fogging. To remove this film:

1. Apply a small amount of non-abrasive toothpaste (not gel) or a commercial mask defogger to the inside and outside of the lenses.
2. Gently rub the paste over the entire lens surface with your finger for several minutes.
3. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water to remove all residue. Repeat if necessary.

4.2 Fitting the Mask

To ensure a proper seal:

1. Place the mask gently on your face without the strap, ensuring your hair is clear of the skirt.
2. Inhale gently through your nose. The mask should suction to your face and stay in place without holding it.
3. If the mask does not seal, adjust its position on your face until a seal is achieved.

4.3 Verstel van die band

The mask strap should be snug, but not overly tight. Excessive tightness can cause discomfort and leaks.

1. Place the mask on your face and pull the strap over the back of your head, resting it above your ears.
2. Use the 3D pivoting buckle system to adjust the strap length until the mask feels secure and comfortable.
3. Ensure no hair is caught under the silicone skirt, as this will break the seal and cause leaks.

5. Bedryfsinstruksies

5.1 Donning the Mask

With the strap adjusted, place the mask on your face, ensuring the skirt creates a seal. The strap should rest comfortably around the back of your head, not too high or too low.

5.2 Preventing Fogging

To prevent fogging during use:

• Apply a commercial anti-fog solution or a small amount of saliva to the inside of the lenses before each dive.
• Gently rub the solution or saliva over the lens surface.
• Rinse briefly with water to leave a thin film.

5.3 Clearing Water from the Mask

If water enters the mask underwater:

1. Press the top of the mask frame firmly against your forehead.
2. Exhale slowly and forcefully through your nose. The exhaled air will push the water out from the bottom of the mask skirt.
3. Continue exhaling until all water is expelled.

5.4 Equalizing Ear Pressure

As you descend, pressure increases. To equalize:

1. Pinch your nose through the mask's nose pocket.
2. Gently blow through your nose (Valsalva maneuver) until you feel your ears pop.
3. Equalize frequently and before you feel discomfort.
