Warnings
28. Do not dispose of expired or used smoke tubes in domestic or
residential waste. Smoke tubes must be disposed of properly
because the tube contains chemicals. Dispose of smoke tubes
in strict accordance with all federal, state, and local statutes,
ordinances, and regulations.
29. Smoke tubes are primarily composed of glass and chemicals.
Keep smoke tubes out of the reach of children.
30. During the Sensitivity Check, do not place the open end of the
smoke tube closer than 36 inches from the test subject’s face.
Do not point the open end of the smoke tube toward the test
subject’s face. If the smoke tube is placed too close to the test
subject’s face or points toward the test subject’s face, smoke or
fumes concentrations may increase to dangerous levels,
resulting in property damage, serious injury, or death.
