Activating and maintaining the effectiveness of the anti-fog system
This mask needs no preparation (toothpaste, flame, anti-fog spray) before use.
To activate the film, first soak the mask in water and lightly rub the inside of the lens before diving. To optimise the efficiency of the anti-fog system, avoid touching the lens with your fingers that may be greasy (e.g., sun cream). If the lens fogs up, rinse with clean water and rub the inside of the lens lightly with your fingers.
What is the deflector for?
The deflector is the part located at the top of the snorkel. Its curved shape creates a protection limiting the inflow of water through the top of the snorkel.
To prevent water from entering your snorkel, we recommend choosing a dry snorkel with a float valve that blocks water.
Anti-fog film
Hydrophilic film laminated directly onto the glass. This film prevents fogging underwater.
How do I use the purge valve?
Simply blow out gently to empty the snorkel through the valve. After breathing out, be careful when you breathe back in; inhale slowly as some residual water can remain in the snorkel. When in doubt, do not panic: raise your head out of the water and the snorkel will empty itself instantly through the valve. High-speed intensive swimming is not recommended as it can move the valve and cause water to enter.
Valve maintenance
Sometimes sand or salt gets stuck between the valve and the hard part of the snorkel, this prevents the valve from correctly lying flat and ensuring a watertight seal. In this case, simply rinse the snorkel thoroughly with clean water and check that the valve lies flat.
What is the snorkel valve for?
When Snorkelling, water can enter the snorkel due to immersion or splashing. The valve located at the bottom of the snorkel makes it easier to expel water. Thanks to the valve, most of the water is drained from the bottom, which means the user does not have to blow out so hard. This is unlike a conventional snorkel where the water is drained from the top.
