All breathing apparatus must be stored so that it is ready to be donned and used.
Correct Answer:
donned and used
Explanation:
The key idea is readiness for immediate use. Breathing apparatus must be stored in a way that allows a firefighter to put it on and start using it right away, because in an emergency every moment counts. Saying it should be donned and used emphasizes that the end goal of storage is quick donning and immediate operation, not just routine maintenance or hygiene steps. While refilling, inspecting, cleaning, or sanitizing are important ongoing tasks to keep gear in good condition, they don’t by themselves guarantee rapid deployment. The other options describe maintenance or cleaning actions, which are important but don’t ensure the gear can be donned and used without delay.
