How do you obtain the PBE?

Explanation:
Access the PBE by opening its container and pulling the pouch out. The PBE is stored in a sealed canister inside a cargo or cabin bracket, so the first step to reach it quickly is to open the container door and remove the pouch from inside. Once the pouch is outside, you would tear it open to access the hood, which you then put on and activate. Tearing the outer package or removing the PBE from a bracket aren’t the immediate steps to obtain it, and attempting to remove the hood before you’ve retrieved the pouch can slow you down in an emergency.
