Curious about fingerings

I have found the following fingerings for a 5-valve f-tuba at the Meinl-Weston site.
Contra G: 2-5
Contra Gb: 1-5
Now I wonder if you have to play these tones with the false-tones.

The 5th valve is a "verlängerter Ganzton", I think in English a "long (or flat?) whole step".

TIA
Robert
