How do you manually activate the Pak-Alert?

To manually activate the Pak-Alert, you need to hold down the red panic button. This button is designed specifically for emergency situations, allowing the wearer of the SCBA to signal for help if they find themselves in a distressing situation. When activated, the Pak-Alert will issue an audible alarm, alerting others nearby to the user's predicament.

Understanding the function of the buttons is crucial for effective use. While other buttons or switches may serve specific purposes during regular operation, the red panic button's primary role is to provide immediate assistance. This feature enhances safety and ensures that the SCBA wearer can quickly summon help when necessary, which is vital in emergency environments where communication can be challenging.
