the Inflatable PFD by mouth (Fig. 4) should inflation not occur, or if
you are in a non-emergency situation. To orally inflate the Inflatable
PFD, first locate the oral inflation tube by opening the cover panel
of the Inflatable PFD. Remove the dust cap from the end of the oral
tube and blow into the tube until the Inflatable PFD is fully inflated.
Place the oral inflator dust cap back in the stowed position (Fig. 6).
WARNING: Avoid double inflation (CO
2
cylinder inflation after
full oral inflation) as it could damage the PFD.
Deflating the Inflatable PFD
1) To deflate the Inflatable PFD, reverse the oral-inflation tube dust cap
and insert it into the valve or depress valve with fingertip. The dust
cap will not lock in the deflate position so it is necessary to hold it in
place (Fig. 5).
2) Gently squeeze the Inflatable PFD until all air or gas has been
expelled. To avoid damage; do not wring or twist the Inflatable PFD.
Put the inflation tube dust cap back in its stowed position on the
oral inflation tube (Fig. 6).
3) Examine the service indicator (Fig. 1). If the service indicator is red,
the mechanism has been fired or is incorrectly fitted and the inflator
requires service (see Re-arming your PFD (MD3075)).
NOTE: The service indicator must be green before proceeding.
4) Your device is ready to be repacked (see Repacking p. 8).
