1. Important Safety Information
Please read this information carefully before referring to the
operating instructions.
The unit should be fitted to the users face to create the
tightest seal possible but not to the point causing discom-
fort for the user. This is to ensure the automatic air demand
system works properly to provide positive pressure in the
mask.
When purchasing the Tiki as a package, it includes only a
P3 particle filter. Please note that this filter (like all filters)
has limitations to its use and the environments that it can
be used in. The Tiki does not supply oxygen and must not
be used in atmospheres having less than 19.5% oxygen
content.
It is recommended that the user has had adequate
information and training in the use of protective meas-
ures to control exposure to hazardous substances.
Users of respiratory protective equipment must be fully
trained in fitting, wearing, use, care and limitations of
the equipment.
Instructions relating to the use of this face mask must
be followed at all times. Incorrect usage will result in
reduced protection for the user and misuse will void
any warranties.
Seal check and fit testing: An improper face seal may
allow hazardous particles to enter the mask, reducing or
eliminating respiratory protection; thereby putting the user
in danger.
In addition, it will also reduce battery time, filter life and may
possibly aect the comfort for the user.
Always ensure the mask has a good seal against the users
face. Things like facial hair and spectacles may aect seal
quality. Please see “Seal check and fit testing” for instruc-
tions on how to do this. The seal must be tested before
every use.
Do not use the Tiki respirator in an emergency/rescue
situation unless you have received proper training in its
use, have read and understood this instruction manual and
demonstrated proficiency.
Special attention must be given to:
• Face seal
• Warning systems check before each use
• Awareness to dierent filter and battery durations in
dierent conditions
• Emergency situations
• Procedure at low airflow or warning signals given by the
Tiki respirator
Before any person uses this product, it is a require-
ment that they have read and fully understand this
instruction manual in its entirety.
The Tiki is a full face respirator for use in environ-
ments that may require filtered air. It helps protect
the user from certain airborne contaminants if used
correctly. Failure to understand the function and
limitations of this product can result in injury or
death.
Any persons using this type of safety equipment
must have undergone appropriate health and safety
training for the environment it is used in.

WARNING
LEAVE CONTAMINATED AREA IMMEDIATELY IF:
• An emergency occurs and you cannot assist without putting yourself in harm’s way.
• Breathing becomes dicult or throat becomes irritated.
• Dizziness or other distress becomes apparent.
• Any component of the respirator becomes damaged.
• Battery is low.
• If you can smell or taste contaminants.
• Airflow to the mask decreases or stops.
Failure to comply with all of (but not limited to) these points can result in respiratory injury or death for the user and may
have serious consequences for people or items around you should an emergency situation occur.
2. Components
The Tiki is a powered air purifying respirator (PAPR) that uses filters to remove harmful airborne contaminants. Itis made up
of several components. The basic components required for the unit to function are the mask, blower, filter and harness. The
external battery pack extends the battery life of the mask and the charger is required to charge both the blower unit and the
external battery.
3. Initial Use and Charging
Step 1. Remove all of the parts from the packaging. Ensure that all parts are included and that they are not damaged.
Pleaserefer to Chapter 2. “Components”.
Step 2. Charge the blower unit with the included battery charger. Then charge the external battery pack (sold separately).
Itis important that both are charged fully before the unit is used to prevent the batteries from running out prematurely.
Charge the blower and external battery separately.
Charge status light (Fig 2, page 2) RED light = charging GREEN light = fully charged
Detailed view: Connect the plugs by lining up the three pins. Then push the plug in and turn the end of the plug clockwise to
secure it in place. (Fig 3, page 2)
)
WARNING
Please note that if the external battery is left connected to the blower when it is not in use the unit will discharge itself due to
the internal charging circuit in the blower. If the battery and the blower are disconnected the unit will remain charged. Never
charge the unit in less than 0°C.
Step 3. Remove the harness from it’s packaging and attach it to the mask. Please see Fig 1 on page 2 for illustration.
Step 4. Perform a “Seal check and fit test” as instructed in Chapter 4 in this instruction manual.

4. Seal Check and Fit Testing
Before each and every use, a seal check and fit test must be performed without the blower and filter assembled with the
mask. This is to test that the mask seals properly on the user’s face. An improper face seal may allow hazardous particles to
enter the mask, reducing or eliminating respiratory protection; thereby putting the user in danger. It will also reduce battery
time, filter life and may possibly aect the comfort for the user.
To perform a seal check and fit testing:
For your own safety–it is highly recommended to perform a seal check under the supervision of an authorized Tiki respirator
instructor.
1. Attach the straps to the mask.
2. Slide the mask over your head (Fig 9, page 3).
3. Tighten the straps until a comfortable fit is attained (Fig 10, page 3).
4. Place a flat piece of paper on top of the mask making sure it covers both holes (Fig 4, page 3).
)
WARNING
You will not be able to breathe in while the mask is over your head and the holes are covered. Do not panic. Simply move or
let go of the seal check pad so that the holes are no longer covered, or remove the mask from your face.
5. Carefully try to breathe in.
If the seal check and fit test was successful you should not be able to breathe in and the mask will push on to your face
when you try to do so. You can now proceed to Operating Instructions in the next chapter.
If the seal check and fit test was not successful, you will notice air leaking into the mask. Try to diagnose where the leak is
and try to remedy it. It may only require an adjustment of the straps, or you may be required to use a dierent sized mask.
The masks come in three sizes; small, medium and large. Other things that can corrupt a tight seal around the face may
include (but are not limited to) facial hair, head hair, glasses and dierent physical features.
If the mask continues to leak and you are unable to perform a successful seal and fit test, do not use the mask. Please con-
tact us through our website www.tikisafety.com.
5. Operating Instructions
Step 1. Slide the blower unit inside the top of the mask (Fig 5, page 3). Then attach the filter to the top of the unit
(Fig 6, page 3), make sure filter and blower coupling connects by 30° and twist. (Fig 7, page 3).
Note! The filter label has arrows pointing toward where your face will be once the mask is on.
)
WARNING
Attaching the filter the wrong way will cause the pressure sensor to malfunction and will put the user in danger.
Step 2. Reset function
Each time you start using your Tiki respirator you should reset the blower unit. This action is to ensure the software is
reset and good to go. (Fig 11, page 3). Reset the blower unit by holding it upside-down (with the buttons facing up). Start by
pressing the light-button first (Fig 11c, page 3), then press down the on/o-button (Fig 11a, page 3). Hold down both buttons
until both right red LEDs light up and the right has flashed (Fig 11d, page 3) The blower should not start up.
Release the buttons. Reset is complete. You may now start using the blower unit.
Step 3. When using the external battery pack, attach the external battery to the Tiki respirator before you slide the unit over
your head.
Step 4. Tighten the straps until a comfortable fit is accomplished, making sure there is nothing obscuring the seal around
the face such as hair or glasses that may cause leaks. If the mask does not seal properly and there is a leak, contaminated air
may enter the mask exposing the user to the contaminant. This may also greatly reduce the battery and filter life–putting the
user in danger.

ENGLISH
Step 5. Switch the unit on by holding down the power button for 3 seconds. (Fig 11a, page 3)
The blower unit should temporarily increase in speed until the unit can establish that the pressure inside the mask is positive.
After a few seconds the fan inside the blower unit will slow down as it optimises the airflow to the required amount. The
airflow will now continue to be adjusted automatically according to use e.g. if you start breathing faster the fan will speed up
increasing the airflow so as to keep positive air pressure in the mask at all times. This is to minimise the wear on the filter and
the battery; and for the comfort for the user.
The button marked “Light on/o” is to switch on and o the built in LED work lights (Fig 11b, page 3). Using the light will
reduce the battery time of the blower unit marginally.
Red indicator lights (Fig 11d, page 3)
The left light indicates if the blower unit is on or o. It will always be lit as long as the unit is on.
When only the right light flashes and the blower emits an audible alarm every 5 seconds, the battery power
is low and there is roughly 15 minutes battery power left. Remove yourself from the contaminated area immediately and
charge the blower unit and the external battery back to 100%.
If the two lights to the right start flashing and the blower emits an audible alarm every (one) second; this
indicates that the mask filter is either blocked or there is a major leak causing negative pressure in the mask. This means the
user may be exposed to the external atmosphere. Remove yourself from the contaminated area immediately and charge the
blower unit and the external battery back to 100%.
Step 6. Attach the battery pack securely onto clothing or helmet. E.g. in your front shirt pocket or onto belt utilising the clip
on the battery pack. We also recommend you secure the cable so that there is no chance it will be caught on anything.
6. Warning System Check
A warning system check must be performed before each and every use.
If a major leak is detected causing a loss of positive pressure in the mask, an audible alarm will sound 2 seconds after the
leak is detected, alerting the user of the leak. Therefore to test that the warning system is functioning, the user need only
manually cause a leak. This can be done by simply pulling the mask away from the face a couple of centimeters (Fig 12, page
3) until the warning alarm sounds. Once this sounds the user can put the mask back on their face; the alarm should stop and
normal operation can proceed.
)
WARNING
The warning systems check must be done before each use and only be performed in a non hazardous environment.

8. Cleaning and Care
The Tiki has been designed to be used for a long time. If the mask is contaminated it can be cleaned and disinfected and put
to use again. If it is damaged it should be recycled. If it is contaminated beyond restoration it should be disposed of.
∞ Clean the Tiki using a cloth with a mixture of water and mild detergent. Do not use any solvents. During cleaning ensure
that no water is allowed to enter the blower unit. The blower unit should never be immersed in fluid.
∞ Use a disinfecting spray like Incidur
®
(Ecolab
®
Healthcare) on the outside of the blower unit to remove bacteria and germs.
∞ Dry the Tiki with a cloth and/or leave it to dry in the open air.
)
WARNING
∞ Do not open the blower unit and never modify or alter this product as this will void any warranties.

11. Recycling
The mask is composed of PET and TPE materials, and is re-
cycled according to local ordinances. When this should be
done can be determined by either a regular system check
of the mask and/or a disposal schedule. If the device was
used in a hazardous environment there may be hazardous
particles on the mask. It may need to be disposed of as
hazardous goods. Please dispose of according to local, state
and federal laws.
The P3 particle filter is composed of ABS plastic and
HEPA fibreglass media. Please note that depending on the
environment it has been used in, it can contain dangerous
particles and will therefore have to be disposed of according
to local ordinances and regulations.
The blower unit and external battery both contain electri-
cal equipment and a lithium polymer battery. These should
be recycled or disposed of according to local regulations.
