Alternatively, on vessels only containing these substances in containers in open holds, the holds containing such containers may be ventilated with the ventilation operating at full power only when it is suspected that the holds are not free of toxic gases and vapours given off by the cargo. Prior to unloading, the unloader shall be informed about this suspicion.
