Put on the mask
Place the mask over the mouth and nose with the white side facing inwards. Pull the white elastic bands behind the ears to secure.
Ideally, the respirator should reach from the bridge of the nose to under the chin, including any beard. The loops should be adjusted according to the size of the head so that the mask fits comfortably but tightly on the face and there are no gaps at the sides.
Adjusting the nose clip
The mask has a built-in wire at the bridge of the nose, a so-called nose clip, which must be adjusted to the nose by bending it slightly.
Check
There should be no gaps on the sides of the mask. The mask must be tight but comfortable on the head. With glasses, the mask must be put on first and then the glasses. The glasses must not sit under the mask.
Removing the mask
When putting on and taking off - and while wearing - avoid touching the protective mask directly at the front. The mask should only be pulled over the ears by the straps and over the chin and nose by the hem. Hands should be washed sufficiently with soap before and after donning and wearing the mask.
