##### Abstract

We prove that a self-map of the closed Pontryagin surface can be approximated by homeomorphisms if and only if it is monotone and has degree $±1$. This adds to a body of theorems, each of which characterizes for some space or class of spaces those self-maps which are approximable by homeomorphisms.
