Special Considerations for Automatic Devices
The PFD might not be armed when needed, either knowingly or unknow-
ingly. Premature automatic inflation causes several risks that you must
address to avoid drowning. Much less common but also important are:
1) Double inflation (CO
2
cylinder inflation after full oral inflation) could
damage the PFD,
2) Inflation when stored in a tight space could damage the PFD, and
3) The PFD could inflate when you are in an awkward place or position.
If this PFD should inflate, a re-arm kit (MA7218), with a valid install-
by-date, is required to re-arm the device.
IMPORTANT: The PFD should be re-armed according to the
Re-arming
Y
our PFD instructions (p. 13).

tube dust cap and insert it into the valve or depress valve with a
fingertip. The dust cap will not lock in the deflate position so it is
necessary to hold it in place (Fig. 11).
